Its getting warmer in FL

ripracer · 04-11-2009, 12:40 PM

Had to take of the hardtop for a couple days.

Question: Is it gay if two dudes ride with the top down in a miata with their shirts off?

only if your holding each other's junk.

Its always warm in Florida...anytime of the year

did you fully polish your hood or leave it unpolished, just rare? i am thinking of sanding mine down from being polished, but just one direction..

looks pimp though.

I'm thinking of doing the same thing with my hood, it's semi-polished now. Plan to scotchbrite it.

is it polished? or just painted silver?

NAautoxer · 04-12-2009, 08:19 PM

his is polished as far as i can remember.. but i can't see it good enough to see if it's mirror-like..

Its not mirror like but is pretty shiny. It would need a good wet sand and buff to be nice but there are so many scratches that I just assume scotchbrite it, to give it that raw aluminum look.

No it's not, it got down to 17 degrees this winter. And that's fucking cold, trust me, I was riding my old Kawasaki at the time.

Two shirtless guys in a miata is kinda iffy though to be honest lol

ripracer · 04-13-2009, 11:22 PM

Sadly I put back on the hardtop today, gave up being cool for looking cool.

I did get a sweet tan that day I rode shirtless.
