    Good work. Later on you can just have some panels cut from a donor miata to fix the back part. Someone backed into my old MR2, so I had to buy extra panels and have my car on a frame bench. 1 month later my car looked pristine like the accident never happened. Your car should only take a couple of days to fix.

    yea i was lucky that the frame is fine, i do plan on getting a corner cut for another car. i was also thinking that over fenders would do the trick

    For that kind of work it should cost no more than 1k, the shop will just blend in a new paint for the panel. I'm looking to have my car painted on top of some minor body work as well. I have to buy a freaking passenger door shell since I mine came dented up when I got it. Just like you my Miata will be a very slow project. BTW, nice EG hatchback on the pics. I had a boosted single cam many years ago, it was a quick little beater and very reliable.

    Yea her little hatch is cool. We changed the wheels and it looks ten times better.
