I dont think that the white mirrors suit it at all. To me the colour contrast emphasises them too much.

Aftermarket CF jobbies would be ideal in my eyes ;)

I reckon a set of black wheels with a thin, red stripe on the wheels would realy make it stand out too.

What about black sills?

Still not decided on wheels.
I like work equip 01/03 or watanabe style wheels. I dislike the look of those slipstreams on mx5s personally.
Any other suggestions very welcome. Photochops more than welcome!

Great now I've opened up the whole wheel weight vs style vs everything else confusion.

Hooray.

Might take me a while... :?
