I like it. Toughens up the front a bit. Are you planning on some sideskirts as I feel that the rest of the car is a bit soft compared to the front bar.

You might want to check but I don't think 15's will fit over your brakes.

*Some* 15" wheels don't fit; but not all. AFAIK most do fit over the NB8B brakes.

I really like the front bar, great looking car! 8)

There are a few option for side skirts, you can get the Mazda OEM unit or the Mazdaspeed skirt from US.
I got mine in January from a retailer in US, the shop closed down recently, but Im sure you can find it from somewhere else.
Here's the pic of my car when I was test fitting them. The skirts are made of flexible ABS and comes with all the fitting kit, instruction and pre-painted from the factory :)

They are the Mazdaspeed side skirt, try searching from US retailer, I bought mine early this year but the company has closed down. Try eBay USA also,you can find lots of OEM MX5 stuff there as well.

yes, they are CE28N :)
