Thumbs up 1st gen spoiler kit

Hi

Was wondering whether I could get some info on how to get my hands on a spoiler kit which gets rid of the "beak nose" front end of the 1st gen rx7. There are a few examples on here which look quite classy. I have a white series 3 with exeptional paint and body.

Im in Perth Australia

Ps. best rx7 forum

Welcome to the board. If you do a search youll find that info on here. I believe theres a link in the FAQ thread thatll take you to lists of vendors. Off the top of my head I know selectmaz is located down under and they sell body kits.

You think its hard to get parts in Australia?? Try living in Canada with a rotary. Its VERY hard to come by some more specific parts. But there are plenty of OEM and aftermarket parts suppliers down there.

ARF bumper (no clue where to get it but it is apparently only available in japan) and the eribuni style bumper (http://www.erebunicorp.com) are really nice.

3 shops?!?!?

i only know of two(rotomotion and formaz) whats the other?

but you're right.. theres a fair few backyard mechanics who like to work on rotors, which i dont supose is a bad thing

i generally just go thru rotormotion, they've always got what i need, and the guys who run it are friendly and remember when you do repeat buisness.



also if ur in perth, check out www.rotorheads.tk the local rotor group... its commng up to suimmerso we'll get some good cruises and what not happening soon

I've been wanting a new front for my FB for awhile now. Where can I get a nice front for a good price. Quite ironic that I can find kits for the 2nd and 3rd gen at a better price than I can for the old FB.
