NO NO NO NO!!!!

This pic has comne up at least once every two weeks since I joined here...

If I remember right, its all custom. I think it was a modified prosche kit?

So unless your willing to fork over big $$$ I'd look at a better kit like the complete (except for the hatch) mariah mode 1 wide body kit.

Thats just my preference.

Heres my plan to moderators whom it concerns: Put a pic of that car at the top of the 1st gen page here with a link discribing what it is to lower the frequency this comes up. LOL!

THis is just silly to see this often!

Which one exactly? I looked and did not find any site with body kits for 83' GSL rx7? How do you post pictures directly on the post? Thanks.

ya know..since this body kit is brought up pretty much every other week, i sometimes wonder how much profit could be made by producing a kit like this and selling it

OH NO NOT AGAIN!!! I f***king hate that car by now...
I already told the mods, make this car a sticky, so we don't have to answer the same question ("where can I buy this") with the same answer ("you can't - it's all custom") every second week...
Anyway, someone who wants to make his Seven look like a porsche 928 must be sick. When you're finished you'll have paid just as much as if you'd have bought a 928. Without killing a Seven... Go Mariah, or something like that, mate...

Well, you do have point there... And with the profit you could buy a kit made for Seven-owners WITH taste

I think the car looks pretty good, all accept for the shoping cart wing, but I sure as hell wouldent do it to my car!!

Once again incase noone noticed, the kit is a one off total custom bit, you can not buy it anywere.

I think that car is considered a wide body. in the picture you can't see them ,,but the driving lights are in the bumper , and 2 are missing. I don't know what it looks like up close, but i like how the rear fender flows over the rear bumper. I also like how the side center line flows up and over to become the front bumper,,,clean.
If i remember right,,it's turbo'd too. somewhere from canada,, that car comes from. that is no kit. full custom job,,,$$$$$$$$

I knew it before I opened it... I wonder how many people join the forum just because they saw that pic.....I'm really tired of that car. Good point about making the kit, you might make a small fortune.
