Photoshoot with dondo's car

You're probably wondering if Miatas can even go 60 mph. The answer is yes, it just doesn't get there very quickly. You're probably wondering why I was sticking my head out of a Miata going that fast...

just used some solvents like acetone and googone but too much was starting to turn the clear bra yellow so i couldnt get all of it off.. it'll need a new one to fix it 100% i think.
