Post your CUSTOM COLOR Miata/Roadster/MX-5 - Page 3

Haha Ooops, (foot in mouth) I'm just not a fan of the altezza style tail lamps. The car looks awesome with the new paint for sure. Have you changed your parking habits now?!

CJ's MX-5 · 01-04-2008, 10:30 AM

Oh well to each his own... One of my lamps were cracked and I liked the look of the altezzas, so i bought 'em. Oh ya, I park way back from everything. My wife usually yells at me for making her walk farther now. And now I have to park part of the car in the side yard, as our parking pad only fits one car, but I'm sure as hell not going to park on the street.

Need to find Adam's car from MATG...the one with the Runabout fender mirrors. One of the best paintjobs I've seen.

I agree, pictures dont do it justice, you have to see it in person to get the full effect.
Its an amazing paintjob

+1 its such a dark color it always looked black to me when I saw pics online.

tyson, moar pics plz. I remember you were about to sell that front spoiler but it looks like its not going anywhere soon.

tyson 87 · 01-06-2008, 05:09 PM

More like toooooo much "you need to get wheels that match" in the back.

tyson 87 · 01-07-2008, 12:12 PM

D Nice · 01-07-2008, 08:27 PM

The former color of my car (it´s white now) - a kind of candy. :wink:

Phantom · 01-07-2008, 10:38 PM

Wowe that came out of nowhere. Nice! Whats that a postert hero front bumper? Always thought the full kit with fenders and lip spoiler was dead sexy. Show pics of the new color.

Any new things coming out of Germany for the NB? They always made some nice designs.

Thanks. No, no modified Postert "Hero" - the Front was bought via Ebay from a south german company, and the rearbumper was from Büthe/Import Tuner Shop.

Both are now in my basement, waiting for the day i´m gonna fix them - i had this color for nearly 2 Years, within this time i had 2 crashes with yound blonde girls, one front and one rear. They seem to have a crush on that color 8) , and the painter told me it would be nearly impossible to match the new parts with the old ones properly. Too many layers, it would always differ in the sunlight.

So i decided it was time for a complete different new buildup - other color, original bumpers, somehow lightweight, special rollbar, .................................................. ......... plain and simple, no show, just a toy for corners.

No, not really. Check Ebay Germany - otherwise only the same old stuff from IL, ATH or Chromdesign. Even Büthe has no new parts for the NB.

Zaphod · 01-08-2008, 01:14 PM

Hi Nice,

"same old stuff" is only for us over here in Germany. German things tend to be very unusal over in the US. (Welcome over here at CR, been on here for a while now)
I already proposed a swap of rear panels for the NA cars between the German/Euro ones and the US Miata ones. (Though the shipping will be too expensive)

Whoa....wait....wtf.....Tyson 87....that front...lip? Wtf is that? That's kinda ill....dunno about the external oilcooler, but that front end...wtf...neat.

Jonathan · 01-18-2008, 06:40 AM

Looks like the Wings West kit. I always liked that kit. Sorta gives it a 2nd gin bumper look a little bit.

If you're talking about Tyson87's nose, it's ISC Racing's Air Dam (I would assume it's only useful for ITA guys as far as classification goes).

Hahaha, that is so freaking cool!!!! I've gotta get that lip!

Wait, I don't have a Miata...crap...

Phantom · 02-02-2008, 07:03 PM

Not mine but found this nice color NB. Looks like the lotus elise green.

Zaphod · 02-03-2008, 12:38 AM

Well I think this is my call...

That is "Jaeger" (which means Hunter) from our local club over here in Saxony, Germany. (You can have a look at the gallery at www.mx-5club-sachsen.de).

The car is actually Kawasaki green with black accents, completly de-chromed.

Its a great ongoing project.

The pics you have are rather old, I found some newer ones:
