    Looks good, yeah, polish the lighst up, the old ones are still nice!

    I have a feeling they are much lower than a 36 offset dude.

    Also, the exhaust looks crooked.

    thanks lads for the response

    hahaha yeah coffee the exhaust was like that when i got the car no idea whats underneath it but sounds sickkkkk lol
    i will get rid of it for a decent twin outlet muffler later on
    im sure the offset is either 35 or 36 as the 5 and 6 are all looking the same on the sticker which is preety faded on the inside

    I had a single exhaust like yours and it sat at the same angle. Had clearance issues with the tow hooks.

    ill have updated pics of my baby once she's back from the workshop in the next few days

    i was looking at your center garnish at the back of ur car

    Where the MR2 insignia is, theres that plastic line going left, and going right.

    Now my N/A's original center garnish had that same one line going left and going right.

    But then i put on a new centre garnish. The garnish had two lines left and two lines right, ill post up a pic soon.

    so...im not sure and the gurus could confirm, but perhaps the N/A's had one line and the Turbos had two lines on the center garnish.

    We'll see


    and as for "something on the car that ppl havent caught up on" is it your black plastic bit under your doors? like black plastic sideskirt thing?

    probably not lol

    You have two side repeaters on both sides? [x2x]
    And yer 9" and 10" are too wide of mr2. If they were 8" and 8.5" that would be alright.
