I just threw up a bit! How can you do that to an RX7! Surely they deserve better than cable tied garden liner! It looks horrible, im all for diy, but not fiuy (**** it up yourself)

Sorry man, just my two cents..

This type of spoiler works better on some cars while it looks like *** on some cars, the first gen being one of them. Sorry.

Tranquil, I admire your pioneering spirit. That is a work of art when it comes to ghetto engineering. Might have potential if it was firmed up and mounted a little (or a lot) better...

Montana Kid; your stuff is alright too I guess.

i dont understand why or what was going through your mind when you wanted to do that to a perfectly good rx7. you need one of those could of had a v8 stupid smacks. take examples of montana kid he took the time to think through what he was doing. better luck next time or maybe if we are all lucky not at all. leave the engineering to the engineers.

Actually my team for the GRM 200x$ challenge put one of those garden edging things on our second gen as a front spoiler... but then again the name of the game for that challenge is ghetto.

Hey Tranquil if it works for you, and holds up under speed, more power to you.

Montanakid you make home made look good, nice looking front end, IMO one of the best looking chin spoilers i've seen yet for the fb........
