I guess thats why there are lots of sprints in Mx5's, since they bolt onto the standard rails, hence use standard mounting points, and uses the stock bolts as well, while still being able to move forwards and back
you can see my sprint V fitment and how the rails needed to be modified Here (warning pics)
spamming more people with photos are you..??

staking?
you have steak? (o.O)a
hahah nah you have to be cool to have cards, plus you dont make other mx5 people pull over (if I remeber correctly sometimes you dont even wave :O and your driving an mx5..) on old pac just so you can say, and I quote myself..
me: "hey, I love your car..!!!"
them: "Thanks, actually I used to own an R32 GTR when I was about your age.."
me "nice, coincidence huh.?"
them: "nah just the meeting of people with great taste in cars"
you still sick? you kinda looked it on friday (in the brief seconds before wei demanded your undivided attention)

spelling fixed
yea, otherwise I would have been skating, instead I got woken up by a call asking if I could drive over to give someone a lift home and this time I got petrol money
back on topic
my seat isn't currently in the car as I seem to get enough attention with my Pullover plates as it is without having a big Sparco label as well (and I know I'm just being paranoid)
but I'm getting my fulls later this year so it'll be going back in then

haha you didnt need me to tell you that your paranoid.. hmm im impressed.
you know why you got petrol money..?
Cause I was standing right there when you called wei, or he called you I forget who called who, and I said the least he could do was give you some money for petrol, see just another one of the million things I do for you that go completely unnoticed.. (till I point it out to you)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The seats look great in Cheyne (I'll take a stab at that being your name people, I feel odd calling people by creative forum names, ahaha Im so boring..!)
You'll have to come for a nice cruise up to Sydney sometime..!
