 Could be very cool if it was real sidepipes ala a AC Cobra or a Corvette...
 At least it SOUNDS cool, but might look really stupid on a miata in person...
 why has no one done the real cobra style sidepipes on a miata???
 i never thought of it before until i heard about these fiberglass sidepipes,
 but it sounds like an interesting idea...

* Randy,

Hmmmm...interesting idea you say???..Well, I don't know about you, but there
are some things that just look plain out of place here..and side pipes on a
Miata IMHO..would be one...besides..Unless the Miata is a Monster one...in no
way will it sound as cool as the real Cobra...and in reality..why would I even
want it to? Our Miata's are great cars as they are...and with a little
suspension additions....it becomes a fantastic car in it's own right...!!!! I
guess if I want a Cobra (and who doesn't), I'd have bought one (well, if I
could have afforded one anyway)..!!!

IMHO..
