Default Winners Guide To Winning: The Most Cost Effective Upgrade for your Turbo Miata

I have stumbled upon one of the most cost effective, winning upgrades for my miata.

What you ask?!

Can I too be 1337 like the Brain?!

Well yes sir-e-bob you can and here's how:

First, collect the following items: A razor blade, off-brand window cleaner, goo gone, some shop towels and a collection of miataturbo.net decals.



Three, install. Easy.

















Wait a second...why did I skip #2? Well, like a true winner, I had first to remove my previous colors.

So let's document this as if you were already a winner, cause we all know you all rock the miataturbo.net decals today.



So...locate old decal.



utilizing your razor blade, in one fair-swoop remove the old decal.





now, treat the area with goo gone and wipe.







and clean the goo gone with your off-brand window cleaner.





and carefully apply your new decal.



BOO-YEAH!


Okay, lets take a look at those instructions one more time, this time with a variant.

locate old decal.



scrape.







treat the area with goo gone and clean the goo gone with your off-brand window cleaner. [not pictured]

VARIANT!!!!!

look through your stash of miataturbo.net decals for the best one for that location.




and carefully apply your new decal.





OH ****!

Now, when I say carefully apply, I'm not joking, you don't want air pockets to ruin your day...so here's a trick:



you see that? don't touch the clear adhesive unless you want fingerprints to show, and slowly press it into place one side at a time.




ENJOY THIS CHEAP *** MOD!

you could have skipped goo gone if you had a new razor blade in your scraperdoodle.

While I did not picture it. I was wearing argyle socks pulled up to my knees, blue shiney gym shorts, a white undershirt, and black adidas while I performed the mod. In case you were wondering.

Question: What's the penalty for putting a miataturbo.net decal on a supercharged Miata?
