Okay, so its not heavily modded but today seemed like a good day to head out and take some pics. Nothing like a freshly waxed ride, yah? :D I would've gotten better pics were it not for the damn crosswinds on the open deck. :( The next batch of pics shall be posted next week after polishing the engine bay and installing a FM coilver kit.

LOL.. never thought anyone would be interested in replying to a Miata thread..

Anyhow, there are two reasons for the presence of that bra: first, I think (thought) it looks good and a provides a contrast to the rest of the car, something like the "mask of Zorro" if you can call it one. :D Secondly, the clearcoat is beginning to flake off a bit right along the front edge of the hood. The bra provides a stop gap solution (well, sort of) until I can get it repainted @ Sprayglo. (http://www.importatlanta.com/forums/showthread.php?p=36730685#post36730685)

For those who're interested, currently installed mods:
Perf: FM sway bars
Exterior:: Euro-style DRLs, Hella e-codes, LEDs all around, LED third brake, clear tails
Interior: DIY chrome interior dress-up, Clearwater 3.5" headrest speakers, Sony 5.25" door speakers, Sony GTxxxx HU, DIY mirror lights, trunk lights

Mods at home waiting to be installed:
FM strut bar, Hella front fogs, DIY front/rear lips, voodoo shift knob (gloss black)

Upcoming mods (in that order):
Power door locks (the current key system is a royal pain), FM (or Ohlins?) coilovers, undecided 15" wheels/tires, undecided blower (JKS perhaps), lots of other mods down the line...

I wanted to go autox'ing with it but guess it'll probably remain as a project/street car as I'm thinking about selling off the Accord and getting a propah' V6.
