-flushhousing hid projector headlights
-rx8 shiftknob
-greddy elbow
-air pump eliminator pulleys
-hks downpipe

lol...."bro" made me twitch hahahaha. its okay, you've only been a member since...2004.
.............

rofl ^_^

ellerton: yeah, aren't the time attack Ce28s awesome??
too bad he sold them hahahahah. the rims didn't bow enough for him, and they only offered certain offsets for those, ao he's switching off to diamond blacks now i believe.

what do you think repaint for the fd should be?
i've been leaning towards a dark maroon...sort of similar to the interlagos fire 350z....or a very dark blue to go with some magnesium blue volks. i'll have to find time to check out the choices for house of kolors paint sometime in spring i suppose.

very nice on both ends. That hood looks awesome btw! As far as color wise I like the thought of a dark blue with magnesium volks better than maroon.

my friend ken owns ShineAutoProjects, a place out here in Cali that does a lot of quality parts replicating, which include handlaid fiberglass/cf, and infused fiberglass/cf. So far, comparing to a lot of original REAmemiya, Feed, and misc original pieces, his have come out a lot lighter, stronger, and smoother, with better fitment

on his car, you can see the Feed front and rear fenders on it. I'm switching to those as well. The front will be +25mm wider on each side, and the rear will be +20mm wider

I also like bright red. I don't know what it was called, and they unhosted the pictures, but I posted a bright red RX7 in OT like a year ago from honda tech that was pure sex.

Looking good Carol.

Those RX-7's are some the nicest looking sports cars ever, IMHO.

I am in love with RX-7's as well. I almost bought one instead of my Prelude.

Thats a really nice clean RX-7, keep up the good work.

i'll keep things posted on progress. things are moving slow if only because im hopping around between maintenance/exterior/interior/motor/and suspension stuff...so the progress looks slow all around, but as a whole, its progressing pretty fast as far as my bank account says :CRY:

Pictures on a kinda grassy field? +1!

Your thread made me go rx7 pic hunting Would you be able to tell me who makes this bumper/fender?? (so that i can add it to my "to do if i won the lotto" list?)
