I obviously have to do some cutting and fitting. But i think it will look pretty damn sweet.

never saw the point in trying to make your car look like a car from some other brand.

That bumper on there is no different than someone putting a Honda bumper, or a bumper from a ford truck

Eh, it doesn't really fit the lines of the car. The Mr-2 was a much curvacious car than the 7. I personally don't like it.

spend the time u'd use to get the mr2 bumper to fit and spend it fixing ur headlight anf making your car a single color. besides do u think putting a bumper from a round car onto a boxy car is gonna look remotely good? the lines to match up at all it'd look so out of place...

Haha i'm just messin with you morons... i happen to have that bumper lying around so i thought i'd check it out...
Honestly if somone made a bumper that style to fit the Rx7 i would rock it... But NO WAY in hell am i going to try and cut this thing up to make it fit.

I'm gonna be puttin on my S5 bumper in a bit and then getting the car painted very soon.
