Mind you, as long as they don't show up on the ANZAC long weekend, I don't think I'll really mind how long it takes, so long as the exchange rate is still reasonable :P


Can't do much more than whats been done, have placed the order and just need them to tell me that they'd like to be paid.

Fair call. Looks like we're still playing the waiting game. Oh well. It continues...

All paid for and I've asked for them to include some of the white stickers for you.

I'm happy for you guys to fit em in my garage if you want to save carting them around too.

Yay! Hopefully they don't show up the week I'm interstate though, but I'll bet you they will. If it all processes soon, it looks likely that something like that will happen.

Doubt I'll put any of the stickers on though, but if there's enough for everyone I'll take one just for the sake of it.

I'm getting my exhaust installed next week. Does anyone know if there should be any special considerations made to ensure the brace still fits after the exhaust is done?

sort of, I have an order number!

sent an email asking for updates a couple of days ago .... nothing

Tried to call this morning but appears I missed them, will try tomorrow.

I've never seen a US company so slow or so lax with a business transaction, especially as Keith is on Miata forums constantly.

Conversely my dealings with Goodwin are exceptionally prompt.

Don't install that turbo. It will only get in the way of the brace. :lol:

I'll make sure to trial fit that turbo just to make sure it works. :mrgreen:
I mean, how do you know if it is good for RHD cars? :lol:
Huh?

Ooer... I'm pretty busy (read hungover) for the upcoming weekends for about 3 weeks... Might prove a bit detrimental to installing the brace.
