bloody hell that was quick, i only posted them saturday morning, 2nd class. shows there's not much value in sending things 1st class!!

ah brilliant, another friday night well spent then! glad you enjoyed them :thumleft:

p.s. sorry for the weird order they're in, i tried to rearrange them but as soon as i started writing the discs, nero software put them back to their original, jumbled up order!! :oops:

lol the order did confuse me but no matter it didn't alter the result. Nicely done :thumleft:

My videos are er well pretty boring hence I've not done anything. It's one thing driving through such amazing scenery and down the sweeps and turns but a fixed point video out the windscreen doesn't really make interesting viewing. :oops:

a cheeky wee vid. Quality is real crapo (thanks google) on big windows so reduce it til it makes easier viewing

This is the run on the road from Strathcarron to Achansheen. Only the single track part is included here. Hope it doesn't bore you all lol

White Mk3

Post by markiec »

Hi,

I'm new to the MR2 world! Bought a mk3 at the weekend and already really enjoying it. It's a 2000 model and I would like to start upgrading it inside and out. I'm liking the subtle look of the white mk3 in this thread, what is the name of the body kit (especially the rear spoiler). Also, generally has anybody got any tips for styling, and the best places (web and near London) to get kit for the car?

Thanks,
Mark

Hi Mark,

Nice one! getting the Roadster, you will have loads of fun in it especially over the summer, the MK3 is a completely different MR2 experience. Have you visited www.mr2roc.org its a great forum Roadster based, full of tech and info.

The rear spoiler is a genuine JDM TRD spoiler, the bodykit was bought from Ebay in 2006, really can't remember the name of it, JD Designs, something like that.
