It hasn't been washed in a week - and I've put over 600KM on the clock this week - I usually polish it after a wash - find that dirt doesn't really stick to it much and its easier to clean the next time. Car was only imported this year - helps with the condition - and I've had it in the bodyshop to sort out any niggly bits. Its about as dirty as it gets at the moment - will be cleaning it this evening!

The alloys are Work RS-Z cast magnesium - and they are white ! - but it actually suits the car IMO - the wheels are very light - but I'd hate to have to crack a rim - the only place I can find that sells them is this Jap website - the wheels came on the car

Heres a picture of them on my car -

Yeah - some people like them - some don't -Its something different for me - and performance wise I won't get better unless I spend 2-3K on a set of rims - I'm not taking them off to put on something heavier - unsprung weight is quite important for performance and handling.

The repeaters were bought off a UK MX5 website - theres a post on the general forum called "Clear Repeaters" - they were only 29.95STG - quite a lot cheaper than the funky product repeaters - but they wouldn't be the easiest to fit - Still - If you buy them - I can stick them on if you like!
