MIATA CHRONICLES

Welcome to the Miata chronicles.

These pages are dedicated to track, step by step, the rapid destruction of my gorgeous toy by me due to my obsessent need to tweak and modify my toys. You would think that anyone with an ounce of sense wouldn't constantly change something that already works well. You know the saying 'if it ain't broke, don't fix it'. Well, you would be right. It’s a good thing that common sense isn't my strong suit.

Third Wax Attempt. Trying to get the perfect shine back. So far, so good. Wasting way too much time and money on my car. :)

New audio system. I think I pissed off Best Buy and Future Shop. Ok, this is going to be a long post. Lots of stuff done to make sure I got what I want. Also, if you know me, then you will realize that I tried tons of stuff before keeping what I have. Let me start by saying the sound system in the original car absolutely sucked. The headunit wasn't too bad, but only two front speakers, both paper cones and coaxial speakers. They absolutely blew. Time to take out the screwdriver.

New headlights. I hope they're legal. This is a short update. Unfortunately, I didn't take pics of the headlights prior to the change. If you look at there though, you will notice a slight blue tinge to the headlights color. It goes really well with the car color, also blue obviously.

Of course I'm taking pics! I just bought the car. I finally took the plunge, must have been drinking heavily the night before. (For those that know me, drinking heavily equals 2 drinks). Actually, the truth is that I spent countless hours debating to myself whether to take the plunge or not, including pestering and annoying all my cousins on the decision. They finally left my place out of frustration. All I can say is that two days later, I'm still happy that I did it. Well, I'll be happy until the bank comes looking for their money back.
