Hi guys, i have always wanted an S2000, but unfortunately my racing budget won't allowe it. So i am building a new time attack carbon fibre clad mx5. Actually i am building 2 identical ones with another guy. We are looking at the S2000 for inspiration, i especially like the amuse wide body car. I have made carbon fibre vacuum infused parts for my current NA MX5. But for the new NB cars we will be doing everything we can in carbon fibre. So they should look like a mix between an S2000 an FD RX7 and an MX5.
Here is a couple of pics of the hardtops i make and the doors.

This is the bodykit look i will be making.
If anyone is interested i can keep you updated with the build of the cars, and of making the moulds and carbon fibre panels. If not i will just come on here and admire your cars.
