Love the video and gives me hope that I can get my 2002 fixed. Do you happen to ship to the States?

David Hooker says:

Just out of interest, how much would a repair like this cost?

Looking at getting one in the next day or so I guess I need to go look at it again because I have not seen this.. it is a 01 with 42,000 and I'm in Georgia is that a very common problem down here in the south? Thanks for the info but now I'm freaked out 🙁

The front chassis rail replacement set is "Out of Stock".. when will a re-stock happen? 🙁

Nice video. I’m having the same problem here. Are you selling those panels? Shipping to The Netherlands. Please let me know.

Rob Lightbody says:

Great video. Do you think your panels would perform the same as the originals in a crash situation? They seem like they could be stronger than the original metal, so might crumple differently?

Hope you don’t mind if I ask if this corrosion occurs on the MkIII MX5’s

tdmtam says:

Thanks for a great and informative video. Looking into buying a MX5 this has shown me where to look and how much work is involved to fix this issue, so I will be checking this.

Tom says:

How thick are those panels? Thanks for the great video! I think I'll be ordering a set soon 🙂

CJ Drives says:

I sent you an email. I’m in the states and I have a mx5 with almost the exact same problem.
How do I purchase your plates? I can do the labor.
