The New Flares comes in either tomorrow or Wednesday. I'll be mocking up the cuts and we'll see how that goes.
I actually like this new VC color.
I am hoping my flares comes in tomorrow!

This is a crazy build!!!! Wow!
Those BBS RS's! Crazy but so good!
What is the final spec and offset of those?!
ADOBOMiata (04-26-2016)
Honestly.. I have no idea. But the width is 10 inches (maybe 10.5?) If the calculation is correct I think it's -13 offset. The lip I installed is 3.5.

Hey guys! some came in today.
Installed these GV extra large canards:
And mounted the rocket bunny flares. These are only temporary until I purchase another angle grinder. Mine just broke on the last flare .
Yes.. I will be lowering the car to fill the wheel gap

This is looking great! Keep it up. Real sad to see the old go but the new is looking much much better.

Hey MR members, today I was able to cut the fenders. I messed up really badly but I am glad that the flares is covering the mistake..
Man.. I really want 16s. It would fit nicer than 15s.
Needs more low?

Wow, those are really wide flares. Especially the front!
Maybe get some wider tires to help fill out the flares?

Some future planning at the moment:
Fitment = I'll be using my BBS RS wheels instead of the epsilon wheels. I will be stepping up the wheel's lips & barrels to 16. Rear lips will be 5.5" deep and will be using 245/45 RE 11s for the front and rear.
Suspension = Replace bump stops, control arm bushings, and alignment
Engine Performance = Better Alternator, Fix Tach (or switch over to toyota cops), STILL Waiting for MOCAL thermostat from FAB9/Mocal
Interior = oem carpet (black), GarageStar Minimal Console, Carbon Miata In dash install, Digital Boost Gauge, Digital Water Temp Gauge, bride seats, takata harness, hard dog harness bar
Exterior = Paint job, Carbon Miata cf rain rails, Carbon Miata CF roof wing, custom splitter and/or diffuser
Priorities = TUNE
Compression Check
Spark plugs (NGK BK7E Will be gapping them at .030)
Valve cover Gasket
Rotella 6 Oil change
Coolant Flush
Question: Is it worth Heat wrapping my turbo down pipe? Should I do it?
