bondorific!!!

Me too but it's still too early to tell how well it will come out; still, you have to handed it to the Autonexion guys for coming up with new stuff for miatas.

Braineack 02-06-2008 04:51 PM

it's looking pretty good, but i fear the final product is going to look odd. but for a TT car, should be butterz.


btw, finally an address 16601, anyone know what street that is on :) lots o' parts in the garage.

that7guy 02-06-2008 04:57 PM

Yea, thats a nice NSX in the garage!

Splitime 02-06-2008 05:01 PM

Man I hope the final product ends up with the same quality (at least seen from the photos) as his other products. I'm excited... I want it...

I've loved the idea of that thing since day one. I only wish he would just make it a full replacement top. I bet he could make the whole thing and sell it for the same price people pay for the stock one.

i like it, i'd want one that the back half opened up hatchback style and was attatched to the trunk lid so you could actually use your trunk or access whe battery

evidently he's designing it so that the trunk is still usable.

944'ish... Rx7'ish...
It's either going to be hideous... or look so good I'd give a nut for one.

krayzrac3r 02-06-2008 06:01 PM

i think its hot I want it!!

SloS13 02-06-2008 06:07 PM

is that ALL bondo? If so, it'll crack. Fiberglass underneath, right?

Gimme your NSX

patsmx5 02-06-2008 06:15 PM

Looks good. If they sold a kit like that for my 99 I'd probably buy it. That looks mean.

I think the bondo is only for sculpting purposes until the final mold is made from FG

Adds a ton of weight but the aero would be really good.

Zabac 02-06-2008 06:49 PM

i can see how you could make one semi-light and a hatchback
"im tellin ya i have ideas in my head" in cramers voice

Efini~FC3S 02-06-2008 06:59 PM

I've been watching the progress on this too. I think it looks good, hopefully it's not too heavy.

dirtyboost 02-06-2008 07:02 PM

cr.net ftw

too bad most of us on CR are too poor to afford a soft top, let alone a hartop lol

Markp 02-06-2008 07:23 PM

Actually, I like it... Something about the rear could be changed but I have always liked the Miata Coupe... I think it'd look cool on my '99.

Yes, to me it has to do with the width where it meets the back of the car. I find that part too narrow but I do like the concept.

I also agree with neo; he should make a complete hardtop in FG to substitute the original one. For some reason I've never liked my car's hardtop.
