Looks nice. Its stance looks like mine when I had my 17" rims with 45 pro tires. Monster 7 Stance.

do some fiberglass work on the front bumper on the inside of where you cut and roll the edges toward the IC

It was an absolute pain in the ***, yet satisfying in the end. Around here out of series swaps are usually frowned upon, and with reason. I guess if I had itt to do again I would have bought a S5 TII, cost the same as the swap did.

I went through the same thing, except I cheated and got a standalone.

I must say that FC is gorgeous. I like the cobra rims, I haven't seen that done on a RX7 before.

You've got to have massive scrubbing of the front fender under hard cornering huh?

Yeah, they scrub somewhat, but what can I do? They are the only wheels i have and I have no money. But I do dampen petty hard, so as to make it as stiff as possible, but that also leads to some slide. It's a tough setup to get right. One day I'll have enough money to get smaller more, dare I say, JDMish wheels.

Nice car. Where did you find a jewel like that? I wished mine only looked that pretty. Oh my god, do the cobra wheels add any more horsepowah? Just messing with you. Call me.

sweeet. I'm familiar with 129, but never heard of 323. Is it towards Dalonega or Jefferson off 129 from Gainesville Square?
