Morr's quest for a fun daily driver!

[morr]

I bought this car with the intentions of having a fun, clean and reliable daily driver. So far so good! Here's a quick little summary of what the car has gone thru so far.

Day of purchase.. 2000 LS stock aside from the 35% tint, grille, and Monsterflow CAI.


The first thing I got was a roll bar to make the car a bit safer. I also wanted a seat the held me in place better than the stock LS seats, so I picked up a pair of Corbeau Forzas.


Next mod was an Enthuza XR lightweight muffler paired with the RB mid pipe.


I love the way it sounds!


Unfortunately, someone hit me while leaving a parking lot... the damage was quickly repaired and the next mod on the list was some Riceland coil overs.

Once the weather cleared, I swapped out the old top for a new black one.



I had a small chip turn into a giant crack on the windshield, so that was replaced as well.


Then I went crazy and stripped the interior :roll eyes:





I've always liked Wats on Miatas, but I can't justify paying shipping to import a set just yet so I bought some XXR 513's in 15x7 et.15

[morr]

Picked up a hardtop from another local Miata owner and ditched the soft top altogether.




I wanted to paint my wheels close to that "watanabe grey" so this is what I came up with.



The following day Chris, Rich and I drove to Baltimore for Import Alliance.




Shortly after moving down to South Carolina I decided to put some of the interior back in, because I'm heading a slightly different direction with the car now.


And here's how the car sits as of a couple days ago.

Thanks, that means a lot

My interior is slowly coming together. LE carpet arrived today... I'm not sure if I wanna replace the tan with black or red. Suggestions are welcome!

[George]

I'd try black, but it's your car, do whatever suits you the best

[Caoboy]

... morr has carpet? wat.

[Titus]

Nice build. I think the red carpet would only work if it went along with more red. If it was me, I would go with the red carpet, then dye the door panels and lower dash red, with a black center console.
