After an especially cold and snowy stretch of weather here in Maine, its come to my attention that I need a few random Miata parts.
Namely I could use the front baby teeth and a driver side manual mirror for an NA Miata. Mirror would ideally be Mariner Blue but any color would work.
Thanks!

As I understand it, the factory baby teeth are intended to hold the car "down" when being shipped across the ocean but they are not suitable to be used as tow hooks to get the car out of a snow drift.
Getting out of snow drifts isn't the issue, its getting out of the driveway! Its sloped enough and icy enough that a short tow behind my Subaru would be a welcome thing. And I planned to attach the tow strap to both baby teeth at the same time to reduce any issues.
I have an extra pair of teeth, free if you pay shipping... Not that great of a deal if you need your car yanked out of a drift right now, but it's the best I can do.LOL!!!
PM if interested.

Ive heard that as well, but mine haven't broke yet. I dont know if I would hang a Miata by one, but they are stronger than some people think.
