Mod of the weekend for me. It takes less than 10 minutes to install with a single T20 screw per side and it fixes the nasty wind buffeting with both windows down. Nicely packaged, nicely made, fits nicely, and works great.

Ok I’m the registration police. Looks like your 997 has current registration in Colorado but what happened to the Miata thats been parked with VA tags since 2014?

Fwiw, in Colorado I am not putting a front plate on my car. They don’t enforce anything with plates here right now so I doubt it’ll be an issue. I can’t take a 10 minute drive and not see 10 cars with expired permanent or temporary tags. And these aren’t just a month expired - 2021 and 2022!

Nice! How soon after the third pic did you get the fourth? My car completed manufacturing on 7/6 but I've only gotten the first 3 so far

But this was a very elegant solution, I think!

unfortunately, given the size of North American plates, this is not an option.

First road trip today. These home Depot containers fit nicely in the seatless area. Plenty of storage room in the T. Oh wait, I forgot my duffel bag! Plenty more left.
