how about just tail fins, air dams? I'm looking for both.
also, have you seen the ones listed in victoria british? are they any good? - I only saw airdams. They looked ok from the black/white, but I'd hate to pay that kind of cash and not get what I needed.

Damn it man, can you finance me for a credit card for your website? lol 
I need the widebody kit, the T2 scoop, whaletail spoiler, 1st7heavens vented valance, and his vented headlight lids. Then, Ill be set. I photoshopped Berns T2 hood scoop onto Chris's widebody kit a while ago when I decided that was what I wanted. I need to photoshop the vented valance and headlight lids on next to see if that will really work that well together, but anyway, if you wanna see my idea, its HERE. I wanted to use the T2 scoop because eventually when I do the 13BT install, it will probably use the stock TMIC for a little while at least, so I figure why not feed it air somewhat "correctly". Plus it just looks cool . I say somewhat correctly because the T2 IC is off center, and I would want the scoop centered on my hood, so the IC wouldnt be directly under the scoop, but it would be better than nothing 
. If I did this, I would want to paint it all gloss black too 
. Anyway, someday I will have it...Someday...

On a serious note, how much weight does this body kit add to the car? The point of this kit is to allow for a very modded and wide suspension? Does it help against high speed aero lift? Looks very cool, though.. ..

Quarter century here... is that old? I seem to think that is considered young. Maybe its because I'm a parent. It could also be because I was asked pricing on this product. The person who asked thought that I was the seller... Funny how people read into things.
The purpose of the kit is to allow for wider wheels to be used and improve the aerodynamics... this car does not need much help on the road. Some suspension mods and hp mods make it more fun on the road though.

Rollin' coal and 53mpg!
My widebody kit (the IMSA MkI GT3 kit that zyounker was referring to) is VERY functional...
My spedometer stops reading at 85.... I've had the needle back at 20.... And not one sign of lift. The car ******* STICKS, man.
I like the front airdam of the CP racing kit, though.

erebuni discontinued many of their kits... this is an old car and they seem to think there is no longer a need for the kits. It also could be that not enough interest was there to keep them going.
Kuhlrx7 why not make more money when you can... that was ebay not here...

what other one from erebruni? they have sold at least 5 other kits through the years. I think the one cp makes is a little differant not sure what though. fenders may be a little more narrow on the front or the slope maybe? mantis you need more of a detailed discrip of the kit, what size tires/wheels frnt/bk, overall width change, weight, finish quality, pics from more angles ect ect ect you know what I am talking about. I have a wide body on mine and those things are inportant if you are considering one. I have the one made by pacific an I am looking for another one for my other rx7

toxic that was here. on e-bay some that were there went for even less. I am not oposed to making more money. I would just be oposed to them making it off of me. toxic If you had three or four companies making the same kit one selling it for 799 another selling it for 1000 a third selling for 975 and a fourth selling it for 899 you are posibly going to compare what the differance is between them or at lease the bottom 2 in price but you are not going to pay 1000 when you can get it for 800 . If there is a differance between kits like quality or the finish work needed you may pay more for one than another. or there may be a differance in width or sutch that would send you one way or another but no diff or little diff you are buying the 799 one every time. besides do you not think you should the best price on something from this club. do a search it has been in a number of post here.

Wow that looks pretty good. Does anyone have more pics of it? I'd like to see that air dam better. The bumper kind of looks like it is from a SA. Will the kit work on FBs?

With the wide front, that would look odd with the lights up. Deffinitely could use a fixed light conversion.
Nobody answered my question about the tire width- can an FB stock suspension really take advantage of wide tires, or is this for spacers to 'skate' the car?
