    vindi49 made me do it!

    Hi all, newbie intro ducing himself here

    I drive a '95 1.8l V-spec2 Roadster in BRG, and boy is it fun
    I hang around mostly on PlanetMX5 and MX5Nutz where a few of you have seen my wiper/indicator stalk creations, and a little on miataturbo but those guys can be a bit scary.
    In the past few years I've learned to service my own car and do a few mods with the help of some friendly locals and by doing a hell of a lot of searching on forums and the net, but the best part of owning a MX5 is just driving around lazily down the local lanes. (Or occasionally flooring it)

    ALWAYS have liked the BRG color combo. I like the added tan on the door tops - nice touch!

    Actually it's added black, needed to break up the tan hence the seat covers as well.

    That engine bay is a complete chrome whore's dream, the cam cover took me about 30 hours to polish before sending to chrome. Other bits were hand made in brass then engraved and chromed. At the moment it needs a real good clean up
