03 SIDE VENTS

aaronjb · January 12, 2004, 15:38

Do you think we should all pay Sean an extra fiver if he does this...

So that he can afford a new gearknob s;)

s;) Or maybe therapy for his MX-5 thoughts....

Sorry Sean, just couldn't resist!

Looks like it could end up quite a big GB though..

Sean,

I'd also try steve Ganz at Carson.

Shipping from the US is usually cheaper than Japan (no idea why) and with a 1.85 exchange rate at the moment it could be a steal.

Thanks Mark, I'll PM / mail him now.

Oh, and your all welcome to pay me £5 extra, Aaron can donate £20 - I promise to spend it on sane things s:wink: :wink: s:wink:

I would love 03 vents but not too sure what colour would look good.
I think metalic black wouldn't look right and I am not sure how a resprayed green would look. (plus the extra expense of course).

Anyone any thoughts?

I can always ask if they can supply the Paradise Green ones?

Think it was Cape green actually.

Trouble is the green changed for the later versions.

Pish, you'd spend it on copies of 'Modified MX-5 Monthly', wouldn't you s;)

I'll stop now, before you refuse to include me in the GB s:D

I think you'd have to go green.. I can't think of any other colours that wouldn't just look silly, unless you had the whole car done, or could get them in carbon fibre or chrome look...

Decided not to go yellow then?

I'm sorry, I think those headlights look absolutely S***E.

That was what smr2ley thought of my yellow headlights

So have decided to paint them black gloss to match the car colour and 03 side vents to match

the chrome ones from japan parts are £110 delivered.
i looked into these about a month ago but the pics arent that clear on the site as the pic of the whole car is tiny.

Me too, I'm with Jonboy I'll go for the Chrome aswell.

as someone once said " I have a vision"

markiii · January 12, 2004, 21:12

Guys,

I'd look for some pics of JAE 2002 and Adams original red roadter.

Just my personal opinion but the chrome ones look very plasticky and a bit tacky.

At that price just want you to be sure.

UK = Cape Green
US = Paradise Green

One and the same, like:

UK = Lagoon Blue
US = Spectra Blue Mica

UK = Chilli Red
US = Super Red

UK = Sahara Sun
US = Solar Yellow

UK = Silver Haze
US = Silver

Were you hiding in the bushes for a long time to take that picture? Looks like you've had a PI following him!!!

what can I say Kerry doesn't trust him s8)

I quite like it. Red wouldn't fit in with the chrome filler cap. The thing that ruins the look of the chrome intake is the yellow side repeater. They should be clear. However Ad decided he would rather get himself chrome washer jets with little blue LED's s:roll: :roll: s:roll: s:roll: :roll: s:roll:

N.B. In the picture...who knicked his front NS wheel center cap???

Take the old one out, put the new one in.
(you can abuse the bitch after you're done though s;)

s;) )

Takes less than 5 mins for both sides, once you know what you're doing. Check the posts about removing side vents for detailed instructions s8)

Right, I've got you all a great price on these (still waiting for a price on the chrome ones), so I will start a GB over in the Sales forum....
