What do you guys think? Once I fix the taillight she'll be on the road! SE suspension swap coming this weekend!

That came by way of loadazzrx7 having too much time on his hands! It's a stock unit he painted and added the lettering.

Nice, I like that grey interior with the beige exterior.

I should be by to see it this weekend and pull some parts off the parts car you have. Ill give you a call.

I'll bring my RX-7 if I pick it up from the shop. However it is still not painted.

Glad the new door panels worked out for you. I just ran across the plugs for the screw holes the other day if you still need them.
