A quick google search lead to this: http://catalog.fmsiinc.com/viewitems/fittings/on-oil-cooler-line-quick-connectors-retainer-clips A trip to your dealer's parts counter would probably also be a good start, they usually don't charge much for stuff like this.

Just because there's a place for more "stuff" to be, doesn't mean you need to put "stuff" there. You've already picked a busy looking wheel, adding white letters to the mix is going to be overkill. This isn't the high school parking lot where the guy with the most stuff wins, but obviously...

Yeah they're a damn good looking wheel, light too. I wouldn't be surprised if I eventually had a set of them at some point.

Do it. But only if you go turbo. But that plate is too awesome to not go turbo. So go turbo. And get that plate.

:uhoh: Jenna be creepin'. :lol: Mine, or the 6ULs that Umberto posted? I'm a fan of both. :D

949 Racing only makes the 6UL in a 15". I think you should get some 6ULs. :D2 http://949racing.com/6ul-wheels.aspx

Thanks guys. And yeah, it looks like a bit of a dune buggy at the moment. :lol: It'll go lower eventually, but practically I can't. The main reason for purchasing the car was to have something small that I can bring up to the city for school. The roads there are worse than any I've seen, and...

Wheel gap is so big because the car was just let off of jack stands, and the suspension hadn't settled yet. Better pictures coming in a few minutes.

Eh, eventually. Look a little grippier? :D Better pictures to come. Oh and Carl, that's how it's done.

Oh hay over there, you look so black and grippy...

If my phone could still send picture messages, it would have sent you a picture of a bunch of sandpaper and body filler that Colin recently purchased for your bumpers. :thumbs:

That's how the bar came from Flyin Miata, Umberto's new favorite Miata part company. :lol: As for plans, this summer it'll be getting a roll bar (at the request... make that demand of my Mother), tires, and any maintenance that needs to be done. I'm really enjoying this car in stock form...

They're actually not tow hooks, they're tie-down hooks. You're specifically not supposed to tow the car by them. :lol:

My Miata is no longer 100% stock. :lol: Installed the FM front sway bar finally today. Talk about simple. Skidplate off: Old vs. new: New: I also pulled off the baby teeth while I was under there. Sway bar is simply awesome. I was expecting a bit less roll, but I definitely...

6.0, converter, trans. :D2

And Umberto is doing a bit more than I am... :lol:

Water temp sensor and front hub assy. showed up today. Didn't feel like trying to get that last obnoxious bolt out of the coil pack to get to the sensor, so I did the hub instead. Took about an hour and a half including test drive and cleanup. Not too bad. Old sumbitch: Oh hey new guy...

Eh, I walk around barefoot all the time, my feet are usually already dirty when I get in the car. :lol: I'm really not sure why I waited as long as I did to vacuum it out, it was fWONking disgusting.

This. There's a big hole in the door panel there, and it flops around a bit if something isn't there holding it on. The armrest will also be smaller and completely smooth, so there won't be anywhere to grab on that, and with the window closed there's nowhere else to grab.

Deservedly. :lol:

:lolup: Hey, it's solid, they don't rattle, I didn't have to drill any holes, and it didn't cost a cent. I'm happy with it. Ok, maybe not happy, but I can live with it for now. :lol:

Thanks guys. :thumbs: I got two cans of the stuff Jim suggested, we'll see how they come out. Not much else interesting, but some minor updates. Found out that my water thermistor is bad and needs replacement, so I'll be ordering one of those ASAP. Yesterday I finally got fed up with how...

Finally had the time (and motivation) to clean up the interior today. It's like a different car. Before: (don't hate on my baller flip-flop tan :lol:) After vacuuming:
