A great alternative to ZG fender flares!

If only. I had planned on coming this year but they decided to have it right before Thanksgiving week. I'll be going to visit family so it's a no go. Any other weekend in Nov would have been ok. But right before Thanksgiving? A bunch of us were planning to come but we all had to bail for the same reasons.

She's done. Picked her up today at the shop:
Decals go on in a couple of weeks, after the paint has completely cured.
The oxidized wheels are really letting it down, so I need to get the SSRs on. In order to fit them, I have to put extended lugs in the rear rotors. I'll be pulling those off the car soon. The fronts will require a thin spacer in order to clear the SE calipers...probably 3-5 mil.
I'll also be dropping the car about 1-1/2" in the rear and maybe 1" in the front.
So, yeah...these flares turned out WAY better than ZG flares would have. I have absolutely no complaints.

Thanks all,
Yes, the front air dam is from a kit designed to go on a stock RX-7 with side moldings, so it's understandable that there's a spot for the front license place. I like it...although I don't plan on putting a front plate on.
Tomorrow I'll be going to the parts store to get extended lugs for the rear as well as an angle grinder to trim the brake shield so it doesn't scrape the inside of the 13s.
