    Default A different look....

    So as some of you have seen, I have made a few small changes. I finally got around to taking some pics...learing low-light shots and playing with GIMP software. Yeah...gonna be awhile to get the whole photo-editing thing down....or until I get Photoshop...GIMP is confusing.



    Yes..that is the stock bumper. No, nothing happened to the Garage Vary....I was bored and decided to put the stocker on for kicks.










    Opinions?

    Unfortunately the Enkeis only cleared my brakes by about 1mm...with 5mm of spacer SSRs clear with no problem
    GF has a Canon XS, so i'll get her to take pics eventually, in the meantime, i'll jsut use the PoserShot S5 and make due...dunno if I am good enough/serious enough to spend the coin on a DSLR right now. But thank you, Sir

    The front bumper flows really well. Even though it's stock it looks super aggressive

    I'll admit as well that it looks great on the car, but the GV is lighter, has better cooling, prevents far less air from getting under the car, deflects the air that normally hits the front tires (bit drag issues with any Miata running a wider/lower offset wheel/tire)...and has better ducting to the intercooler/radiator. Sometimes benefits outweigh looks....but either way, thank you.

    Eh its fine but it looks like every other NB now.

    Edit: Plus, if the GV is really more functional, I would stick with it regardless of looks.
