Well if I get the ms bumper you will have to look no further cuz I will sell it. I would probably ask for 50 on it just cuz I used it for a while. And who ever buys it will just pay for shipping fees. Ill keep you guys posted on it though.

I agree... looks unique... you need some sort of side skirt though because the front is so low...

I have the MS but I have to say your bumper with the lip looks quite sexy. IMO I would align and paint the bumper, change the turn signals, I would consider smoked, and leave the lip black.

I also assume that you are at the very least going to touch up the hood. That Flying M looks nice, but it's a little big ( i did the same thing when I had the stock hood ) try a rear miata emblem, they are a lot smaller.

I also agree with the earlier post, some side skirts would really pop, I saw some KMAX skirts on sale on this board, their styling would fit that lip pretty well and I would match the color of the lip, considering the style of those skirts.

I love the gold rims, though I would have kept the wiper arms black. Just my opinion.

Good luck!!
