I kind of like the look of that bumper... But tell me, what is different about those turn signals? They look different but I can't figure out why.

Its a rev 9? Sorry, but not quite. It is actually the RS Aizawa. They were about $700 when R-speed was first ordering them about 5 years back. I was on the list for one, but took my name off later after finding my now Bomex.



Very nice bumper indeed.

And for the record, those turn signals look to me like a pair of smoked ones off ebay.

Sorry I thought RS aizawa was the model and Rev9 was the maker. either way yea its in the 700 dollar neighborhood. I dont know that I am going to drop that kind of money on something that doesnt make the car perform any better. Besides there is a ditch or cone somewhere waiting to remove it for me anyway. OEM here I come!!

I'm partial to a stock nose (get a what, <91 nose and you don't have emblem holes right?) with a Garage Vary lip. Not too shouty, especially if you don't paint it. Stay away from FRP though, even my GV is cracked, and it's urethane!

I went and looked at a whole bunch of miata's for sale on ebay from 92, 93, 94 and it appears as though you are right and they started showing up on the noses in 93, not 94.
