Looks nasty. Go get some super strong glue and run a strip of metal or something down the underside of each one. Just something to make it rigid and keep it flat.
Yeah that's actually what I was thinking of doing. Might try to do it tomorrow.

Ordered some DDM HID's (5000K headlights/3000K foglights) Hoping to install them sometime over the weekend.
Also, here's a few random shots of my car from recent events and whatnot. And yes, the side splitters get super duper wavy when it gets hot outside. It looks goofy as fuck and i'm still figuring out a way to fix it.
mmmmm i like speedmiata's. im jealous of your whole setup too. i went to test drive one specific 2nd gen turbo miata a few months ago and first couple of times i got on it, it was fine. by the time i brought it back it had a boost leak. lets see it went from about 25lbs or so to around 13 and dropping. i was pissed but it was a fucking fun car. ive always had a thing for turbo miatas
Well it definitely wasn't a stock Mazdaspeed if it was running 25lbs of boost........lol. My car makes around 8-10lbs of boost when I get into it. I need to buy a manual boost controller soon though now that I have all the basic bolt-on's. I might crank it up to 11-12lbs.

Photo's do this car no justice. It's amazing how low it is, having said that I'm not feeling the lip and sides. I thought it looked undrivable low, you don't need those.
lol isn't that the point?!
Anywho, thanks for the comments everyone. I know the lip/side splitters aren't for everyone but I feel they give the car character. The side splitters are a custom one off set so you'll never see another Miata rocking them (there are mass produced side splitters by Project-G that look way different than these though) and the EZ Lip affixed to the Track Dog Racing front splitter finally gave me the "lip low" I had been yearning for all this time to match up with how low the undercarriage of my car actually is.
I'm thinking about changing up the wheels soon, just undecided on what I would want to move to next (and afford). My brakes are also pretty shot so I think slotted rotors and new pads will be my next endeavor.
Anywho, here's another shot that my good friend Sebastian took. I was parked on an odd lump (my frame rails are actually sitting on the ground in this picture) which is why my front right looks so high. Normally it's tucking almost all of the tire like the rear is. Until next time!
