That kit looks great! Did you design it from the ground up, or modify an existing kit? Is it just the front and rear bumpers (and lip)?

There are only 2 body kits out there and I didnt like any of them...
I just took a pad and showed it to AE and with some time they said yes and we agreed on a price and we took it from there...
The kit was hand made and molded with fom and then turned it to fiber glass..
Thengron lit was made from carbon fiber...
Glad most of you liked it.
Bbk and wheels are next..

all u need is remote start to mess w people, lol.
Added an engine torque damper. My motor has over 200K miles and low compression on one cylinder. At low RPM, it shakes. Above 2000 it smooths out and there is no issue.
I bought this $40 dampener off eBay and refinished it to match the bay. It works great - pretty much no engine movement at all and I don't notice more vibration in the car. No negatives to this addition so far.
Had to cut out part of the heat shield to allow the damper clearance.
I feel like I'm getting close to finished with the bay - maybe some wire tucking but that's about it.
Got my Megan coilovers delivered this morning for the Miata ($660, shipped). I also got a Torsen LSD and rear axles from a junk yard, been sitting in my garage for a couple months. I'd knock both of these out this weekend if it wasn't 105 degrees in my garage.

SWAP IS COMING SOOOOONNNN! really soon. Pullin the motor on Sunday. One of my buddies is putting a whole new motor And trans in his 96 m3. Soo. He's hooking me up big time. I'm getting his 150k s52 that has a dinan'ed tuned ecu, full exhaust (sounds ungodly), after market clutch, UUC evo3, DSSR, 3.5 inch maf. I'm gonna be doing a m50 manifold on it. Compression test showed 205 for all 6 cylinders, it has had the whole cooling system done about 15k ago. This engine runs like brand new and pulls super hard. Has EVERYTHING needed for a swap, cluster, wiring harness (it's obdII, same year as my 96). I have my upgraded 255 fuel pump in, m3 drive shaft, poly motor mounts, silicone radiator hoses, and my battery relocate kit. All of this for... 1800! And install from my buddy is... 500! Go Alec. Im so stoked. This **** gonna haul! If anyone is interested I have a perfectly running 96 m44 with everything needed for a swap for $800 lol. So around 260-275 hp and I weigh in around 2550-2600. Can't wait !
