So I got some new wheels (yes sportmax and yes if everyone jumped off a bridge I would too). I got them yesterday and put them on my car last night with much excitment. So I wake up with the idea to post some pictures for everyone to enjoy and to much of my suprise I come out to this at my apartment. The insurance seems to be pretty good and hopefully quick.

car looks sick, sorry to hear about the lil damage, hard to tell what Im lookin at from the pics

 

[reckless_abandon]

people are retarded.

but the car still looks good.

thanks for the compliments. Im not the best photographer LOL but after leaving a body shop a little bit ago the damage is around $1,300 as it got my headlight, fender, bumper, rim and knocked me out of align.

wow, your car looks great!!! that lip makes the car look really low, sorry bout the blind reject backing into your car, that sucks.

 

[johndoe]

is that a tdr splitter under the spoiler?

 

[Nightmarejr]

if the head light isnt bad you can save money and just polish it out.. and hten use the money to hook up the rest of your car XD

That car is BEAUTIFUL.
I just needed to say that.
It can have crash damage and still put down 99% of the other miatas out there in the looks department.
I am buying an NB down the road and getting that lip and Sportmazes. It's on.

johndoe: the splitter is actually one that I made myself. i took a 4'x8' piece of ABS and layed the lip on it and cut it out and smoothed it and then when I mounted it I moved it forward about an 1 1/2". Nicely enough this left me enough ABS to make my own air box, and still have a 4'x2' piece left sitting in my office.

Thanks everyone for the compliments, I dont think the car even compares to most of the cars on here. Im hoping to get a whole new paint job out of the deal and maybe if I can get it quick enough I might buy one of the garage vary spoilers before the paint goes on.

So what exactly happened? Hit and run? Or did your wide wheels contact the fenders and tear them up?

 

[johndoe]

hit and run i think

I'd be checking the parking lot with a crow bar for the car that had red scuff marks on it!

Car and rims still look good though!

Thats what I did on Saturday when some moron ran into my rear driver side quarter... I found his truck 2 spaces over and 1 row back. Only I didnt use a crow bar... I used a tire iron.

that sucks, but your car is still freakin awesome!with some oem side skirts and a hard top it would be right up there with rusman as my favorite nbs.
-hahaha you guys have the same kinda temper as me when it comes to messin with my car

 

[JDMage_mx5]

it was pretty much a hit and run except the person left there insurance and their name and number and so far it is going pretty good. I think I will end up with a new paint job on the whole car if I play my cars right and hopefully I can use some of my pocket cash and get maybe a spoiler and some oem sideskirts. Id love a hard top but man the price especially when most wont deliver. Not alot for sell in the Arkansas area, especially at the times when I could have enough money.
