Cassette Shaped Air Dam and Duck Bill Rear Spoiler

First off,

Yes I did search.

Secondly, does anyone remember the user who was selling those front air dams that were shapped like a cassette? The one side had an opening larger than the other.

He was also selling mini Duck Tail spoilers. I think he was out of California.

I couldnt find anything on him in this or the for sale section. Help me out guys.

Thanks

-Greg

No not the widebody, although I do know what your talking about.
It is the same style of airdamn though.

There was a guy selling a GSL-SE in California a while back that had a cage and all in it that also had that airdamn. I just cant find it for the life of me.

Up again any ideas? Looks like I might be doing a V8 swap in the rusty 79 I was going to part out.

That's a sweet wing. Once you get it mounted, post pics.

That air damn isnt bad, but im partial to the 3-piece IMSA front bumper. I love that spoiler though. I have debated running it instead of a 3-piece wrap around. Post pics once you mount the spoiler.

It might be a while before I get the spoiler. Probably not until after or during the V8 swap in the rusty 79. (Not the low mileage one in my sig)

That looks like a slim version of the GTU kit.

Here are some old pictures with the front bumper. Mostly done with a widebody, I am sure someone out there has slimmed it.

EDIT: Apparently some of the pictures have expired, and one has been replaced with a dragonfly. I will see if I can find them on the harddrive.

That SA and the gunmetal-y FB in that same photoset are my favorite RX7s of all time, I'd like to replicate the gun metal one exactly, actually.
