After hitting a deer I am in need of various panels, which I have mainly sourced. Now I need a front nosecone, in good condition (not perfect) and in red. Anyone?

Cheers,

Ben

I could use body parts from a red 5 as well.

Pistonheads Classifieds, Parts, Mazda.

There may or may not be a red MX-5 advertised as being broken on there. wink

How did the MX-5 hold up to a deer then?

Was it a full sized one, hit at speed?

Not full full size, but probably 3 foot tall in the body. It walked straight out into the road as I was doing about 50-60. I caught it's head/neck end on the very edge of the bumper and ripped it's head clean off. To be fair it held up well except that every panel on the side is now dented frown
