Screw everyone, keep the wing!!! Everybody is all hung up on those nasty "whale tails" and the BEYOND USELESS TARGA BANDS from the eightys. I know I will get flamed because the rx7 is a eighties car, but why keep it looking old. Your clothes change with time, but you stay the same. Your car can change accessories but still remain the same.

Keep the functional Spoiler on and some new big silver rims to match and you'll be done!

Nice work.

your car is a Yellow version of mine!, LOL racing seats too. I see you have the 5'' tach I bought the 3 inch version but it conflicts with my dual pillar pod so I might not use it.

It is refreshing to see someone doing something different with these cars, they are 20 years old and still have so much potential to look/feel/perfom better than new cars today, and only a hand full of members take advantage of this.

These are sports cars...

Flame suit with matching helmet already on!! LOL

Previous owner of my car did a monster tacho as well heh, I'm left with the holes in the dash. My dash is in pretty poor condition anyway. A dash-mat covers it nicely heh, but I wouldn't mind a perfect condition uncracked dash..

Perhaps you could make up a little angled bracket which bolts onto the dash and has some sort of humerous warning sticker.

"Warning: This car is rotary powered. Due to possible breathing problems under situations of extreme acceleration, all females are advised to remove any tight-fitting or constrictive clothing for safety." *(slightly modified from another sticker ive seen)

Perhaps you could install some sort of switch there for something on a bracket. Perhaps a custom start switch. So you turn ignition to on, then hold down start until she fires up.

A lot of options =)

Best of luck

Looks nice! Did they spray the paint with the front dam already mounted? It looks like there is some overspray between the body and side lip.

I suggest adding something to the rear... You have the front air dam, the side skirts, it needs something in the rear. Doesn't look complete.

Nice Hilux Timmy. It's just begging for a 13BT or PP.

As for the holes in the dash, just get a dash mat.

Fat not phat

it looks too heavy with all that goofy ground effect stuff, does Aztec bring anything to mind. Put a flower in the hole, it would be like a new beetle.
