	Jerry, that's one of the things that prompted me to repaint my

rocker

	panels body colour.  Haven't regretted it for a second.

Besides, with the

	front air dam and rear skirt, it looks great.



	HAHA! I did that as well. Looks smashing. Of course other miata

owners now ask me if I had a crash, because why would you want to

re-paint that part right ! NO.
