looks great, I'm not normally a fan of the NC's.
This car has changed my mind, the mazdaspeed bumpers and all the little touches you've done have giving it the sleek refined look that they don't have from the factory. very nice.
Like the centre caps, can i ask where you got them from?
Cheers Matt.

So nice and clean! :mrgreen:
If you had access to a car like this, would you take it back right away? Neither would I.

Hey Matt, cheers for the words

the centre caps are 1 off units, Richard (bear2230) spun these up for me out of aluminium :D

I have to make some more Reg for my other set of Meisters so I will get yours and clear anodize them when I send mine out.
Should be a couple of weeks away but you know how long that can be :lol: :lol:

They look great,
If you feel like making anymore Richard,
Let us know i'd love a set, happy to pay more for some nice alloy ones rather than the usual plastic.
Cheers Matt.

Agreed, they look fantastic! I'm interested in a set if you ever make more.

Car is a really sweet example of a NC1

The RFP1 caps were custom made to suit the bore on Regie's rims. The bore size where the cap fits is also different on Enkei 8" wide wheels. (Who buys 9" wide rims, honestly Reg)
So I would need your actual wheels to measure Matt and Luzinit. The hub flange length is also different on the front to the back on the NC's. I think we had to re-machine about 0.9mm of the back of the cap to make it fit correctly.

So it can be done easily enough, We keep all the programmes for the CNC Lathe but you would both need to bring the cars to my factory in Kokarah so I can accurately measure them up.
They also cost $200.00/set. PM me if you guys are still interested.

Some thing different about the rear of your car just can't put my finger on it.
