Weren't the Kamei airdams just add-ons to the existing bumper like that? I will have to go look it up later, maybe someone can confirm in the meantime?

Dont try Showcars!!! They never return phone calls. When i did get ahold of the guy he told me they dont make anything for the RX7 and its a very old website. They do have the 280\240 Datsun fender flairs tho. Located in Toronto now.

I think that's one of the Mazda Factory Race airdams which were add-ons to the existing bumper design. The Kamei design mounted the same way, but had much more curvature to the design rather than the straight-down drop and the small lip. I had two of them through the years, so am familiar with the design.
