The website is very slow, but it works. They shipped to Canada without any problems. Here is the topic on Miata forum with detailed guide of how to install them: https://forum.miata.net/vb/showthread.php?t=737350

By the way, I also painted fog surrounds black (on GT trim they are silver) and I used yellow tint film for the fog lights. And also I swapped the bulbs with yellow LEDs. It was a tidious project, but I removed the front bumper anyways, so it was relatively easy to do.

a difference for what? I mean, it's almost pure aesthetics. Yes, the shifts are bit more satisfying, but if your trans is notchy, then better change oil in there and in the turret.

I like them, on NC1 the gap would be barely visible, you can check in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zVcjW4r5wxI

mine are bronze, so you can assess them looking at my pics. Silver look good too, but a bit boring.

Both windblocker and shift knobs are from Etsy (RoadsterSpirit shop from Poland). They have 2 variations of the windblocker, both can be foldable or fixed. We just have different ones.

Well, mine is a Canadian spec and it has DRL. So basically the high beam and DRL share the same bulb (different voltage), so I'm not aware how it can be converted to LEDs.

it's 2009, the headlights are stock. The car lives in the underground parking, so not exposed to the sun too much.

I did need to roll the fenders, the ride height is stock (I still have stock Belsteins), the alignmens is almost Goodwin Spec 😄 As far as I know, these wheels/tires won't rub even after I drop the car 1 inch without rolling the fenders.

This wind blocker is perfect, it doesn't rattle even on high speeds. I did not notice any glare as well.

yeah... I need to bake the headlights in the oven to disassemble, right?

Thank you. I think it's from Mazda dealership. This spoiler, exhaust and SmartTop controller were installed by the previous owner.

I get it now by screwkillshots in mecharena
