    Was gutted to hear that Grip Driver was letting his smurf go but I’m guessing along with many of you was happy to have the chance to ease the transition when he was looking for good homes for some of his most special parts. Was super excited to receive the conveniently color matched M2 1028 Vitaloni mirrors last week~ Quick install ahead of the weekly ritual of diving out to yet another great KINOD.



    They’d been upgraded with blue mirrors and I’d already gotten used to the smaller Zoom mirrors so the transition was easy. Once set, they stay firmly in place which wasn’t always the case with the driver’s side Zoom. Took a little bit to get the passenger side lined up for optimum visibility but had the friendly co-pilot to help.

    This weekend also finally got around to sanding and painting the wiper arms. Not thrilled with how blotchy the air-foil piece came out (thus no “after pics” just yet) but will tackle those again next weekend.


    A clear benefit of having more than one Miata is that even when you’re upgrading parts you love, you can still enjoy them. As a matter of fact, there’s a whole lot of what Benny has been that will be on the BRG hopefully before long. Love this stage of the smurf and kinda chuffed to know it’s not going away, just gonna live on with another NA..
