RX-7 Chris 03-04-08 03:12 PM

If you look close at the pics, it has a wing.

82transam 03-04-08 06:15 PM

My bad guys, only the first pic loaded before when I posted that, hard to see in that pic. I see the rest of them now...

2cute-from seeing you sanding the kit and now the progress you have made the kit on the car, shit looks great. nice a clean- classic 100%. keep it up.

FDSeoul 03-04-08 07:39 PM

there is literally nothing i can do except porting to make any more power from this car na. so maybe thats next on the list. idk yet.

i know i dont want to go forced induction on this car. i want to keep this car relatively stock. well not stock obviously but....you know what i mean. i have my spec for that.

i think im going to find another FB and get myself a 20b (er attempt to find one anyhow) if not ill just get a 13brew.

but next on the list of things to do to this car is interior. im going to completely redo everything.

thank you!

i still dont know how i feel about the spoiler. its looks far better than it did when the rest of the car was stock and it was on there.

unfortunately of all the choices i have i think this is the most aesthetically pleasing to me. with the kit i dont like the FB without a wing. stock i like no wing. i dont like the low 3 piece and this wing is what goes with this kit. so its staying. till i can figure something else out anyhow

Nice job Jenn!!!

2cute 03-05-08 10:02 AM

thanks

blwfly 03-05-08 10:24 AM

looks really good
i think i have the same kit.
front skirts and bumper.
https://www.rx7club.com/attachment.p...4&d=1190743674

btw i like what you achived looks great

2cute 03-05-08 10:44 AM

yeah you do have the same kit. the key different between the one you and i have and the others is the side skirts. if you look at most of them they tops of the sides dont taper like ours do. they are square and cover everything but the doors on the sides and the ones we have are a lok "chunkier" looking more aggressive IMO

thank you.

its funny i like it a lot im very happy with the way it turned out but i have a very hard time with aesthetic change so im still adjusting to it. i did this with my sentra too when i put the c/f hood and c/f windsplitter on.

2cute 03-05-08 10:48 AM

update:

everything is finally on. filthy but on. it needs to be cleaned horribly.

the rear valance was the biggest pain in the ass.

my car had been rear ended a few months ago by some dumb bitch in a chevy p/u truck. what i hadnt realized was that it had pushed the bumper out horribly on the sides which made my life impossible. i had to pull the bumper in with spacers but now that its all handled im happy.

ill try to take pics later today.

blwfly 03-05-08 11:11 AM

you pop vivited it on??

i thought we could just use sheet metal screws and screw the damn thing on?

2cute 03-05-08 11:21 AM

on the sides where the skirt goes into the door there are 4 rivets. keeps it secure. i suppose you could use screws but they have bigger heads and might look weird.

the front bumper on my car is pushed in in the middle a bit more than i liked and the center of the valance looked a bit funny so i riveted on the front a few rivets but they are painted flat black and anyone other than me is unlikely to notice them and then because my damn rear bumper was all messed up as i already mentioned the valance refused to stay flush with the bumper guard so i used rivets to hold it in place again they are flat black and hard to notice.

the car came out really nice...the whale tail shit needs to go unless you plan on going in the ocean some time soon...:rofl:

djessence 03-05-08 01:08 PM
