This TRA Kyoto Widebody Kit Gives The ND Mazda MX-5 A Welcome Dose Of Aggression

The Mazda MX-5 has been renowned throughout its generations for being a great driver’s car, but if there’s been one complaint, it’s with its image. Sure, it handles brilliantly, but its styling is rather soft, and has a tendency to attract people who want to pose in their cute little convertible rather than chuck it into corners on the limit of grip.

Well the guys at TRA Kyoto in Japan have set about changing that with this widebody kit for the new ND MX-5. The standard car’s cutesy styling and lift kit-spec ride height have gone in favour of angular fender flares and a slammed stance. The track has clearly been widened front and rear to ensure the wheels sit flush with the new extended fenders, while new deep dish alloy wheels and wider tyres should contribute to even crazier cornering ability.

Despite all of this in-yer-face styling, clearly the most attention grabbing modification is that massive rear wing, which looks like it could’ve been borrowed from a small aeroplane rather than a racecar.

It’s unclear at this point what has been done under the hood, but once it’s announced expect to be seeing a fairly beefy upgrade - justifying those fat tyres and serious aero will take a hell of a lot of horsepower.
