Hi guys,

I saw a report on TV a few months back and also a friend has told me that if you have a slightly cracked or chipped plastic front skirt/sideskirt or whatever that some smash repairers have plastic welders

these can actually add more plastic on and weld it back into shape... then it just needs a respray.. does anyone know who can do this?

Cheers

pretty much any bodykit place should be able to do it.

you could do it yourself, just buy the fibreglass resin from a hardware shop should be about $25

i reccomend getting it done professionally tho, coz if u do it urself it might crack after a while.

400HP: I have been hunting down a place apparently in Sydney called Plasti-Fix. They did some work on a friends car filling in dashboard holes where gauges etc has previously been attached. I want to same done.

Not sure about work on front bars/skirts etc but might be worth tracking them down.

      I definitely agree with you there - I never click on content for cars I would never ever be able to get or compete with/against/be seen next to. Seeing a MX5 compete with a FD RX7 will make people upset though, for sure. Even in 2.5L Turbo form which is pretty grass roots. (or at least as grass roots as classic cars can be) Yes we're all classic car owners now.

      Wonder what the cause is, but here's hoping it's nothing too serious.

      People don't always want builds that are overly expensive, or have engineering/registration/insurance issues and head aches that come with them Whilst big dollar builds, and complicated stuff is interesting to watch, there is only a tiny % of people who would actually use this information, or have the spare finances to drop on said builds, whereas the buy a cheap(ish) cool car, and make it better, with a average budget, that the average Joe or Jane could achieve will always be a winner in my opinion

      Bit of a thread revival, you mentioned wanting a bit more top end before, do you regret not going with the 1.01?

      It's kind of interesting - They definitely do builds that split the difference between what they like and what will generate views and engagement. The NC Platform always surprises everyone in a good way, in an uncomfortably good way some may say. They could throw a LS in there and arguably have the best (and best performing) car of the entire stable. But that isn't necessarily what draws views, because people viewing don't want to accept the vegetables of a LS NC MX5 being a superior vehicle in every way (including fun) than a RB26 240Z. This is also why there's not a lot of content about the GR Yaris (on the web in general). They're too good, yet 'only a Yaris' The community doesn't want certain cars to be as good as they are - to beat their hero cars, and I believe the NC MX5 is absolutely one of those cars.
