One of the cleanest Roadsters that I've seen (although, not in person) was Barrie Strachen's

-Eddie Wu

It was the Hood that made Barrie's Car.
He removed the bump down the middle. made a huge difference in the look.

Some please post a picture.

I don't take pictures.

i swear I have a better pic, this is courtesy of Mark Dent:

For those of you that do not know Barrie.
Here is a post of some of his work.

I think the Panasport look seems to be the right look for a roadster.Craig Hoppers car is probably the meanest looking one around and others just look classic.

I tried to be a bit different but really liked the style of the panasport so I went with a local Miata racing clubs' wheel of choice. Quantem Teck.

I think those look good, do you have a close up picture of the centers?

I like the Appliance wheels:

I also like those appliance wheels.
I also like the inherited Enkei's that were on my Roadster, just not thrilled about the gold center color.
At the same time, I'm not sure what I want to change it too.

Yeah, everyone does. Even Gordon doesn't know bumper was used to graft ends onto the sectioned roadster bumper.

The split bumper is perfect for the fog lights. I'm not a fan of fog lights sitting like mushrooms on the bumper LOL
That is such a cool photo as well.

I like my superlite wheels and have no desires or plans to put any other wheels on this car because of a popularity of another wheel. I have had many compliments on them from owners of show cars in my town. So rock on superlite owners.
