yeah, it was a great investment. Do be warned though. That stuff melts. I burnt a small hole in mine when I put it on right after driving. The exhaust tip melted right through it lol.

I'm not really sure what those tabs are for. hmm

haha yeah ive had that happen a few times,

Usually cars have them on the bras on cars that have long front ends where the driver sits low to help them get a feel for where the front of the car is. I dunno why you would need that though.

lol. I like not seeing my hood. It let's me see more of the road. Unlike my old truck. The damned hood was parallel with the road.

If anyone else in the area is going, I'm going to be at the SCCA Autocross event at Summerville High School. I'll be there both tomarrow and sunday. I hope to see some more RX-7s out there!

I'll also be taking lots of pictures on Sunday, and I'll post them when I can after.

Wish I still lived there.... I never even got the chance to go to any autocross events in the Charleston area.

Btw, where are the pics of your car? Unless... the car's made of little red x's?!

RB Header & Mid-pipe, stock mufflers.

Also, what's funny is that most people in the other Street Prepared classes had weight reduction and tyres specific for this. I was stock weight with touring tyres, and wasn't far behind them. lol

That sucks man.

Marking a calender might help too. It sounds stupid, but I have one hanging near my computer. I mark really important events on it. It helps alot too
