Best looking FC3S...
I am not into rice at all, but i think these would be a few good, worthwhile mods... (keep in mind i have an NA)
1. The 89-91 tailights (I have stock) BUT, replace the bulbs wil LED's (it kinda looks that way already), make the amber part RED and have all 6 BE LIT when lights/parking lts on. (kinda like a Ferrari 512 TR
)
______
O O O II |______| II O O O
2. I think the 89-91 TII Rims are sweet ! (look like 16 spoke)
3. Paint calipers to match exterior car color
4. Possibly remove emblems ???
5. Small, but attractive "1.3L" on R/L fender
6. SHIIIINNYY exhaust tips (nothing bigger than 3")
7. BOTH FTP lenses either removed or modded
I think that would look awesome just short of a $1,000+ body kit
Anyone think of other little touches to make your FC look pimp?

Yeah I'm trying to enhance the sleeper/stock look as well.
Those all sound good. Removing the FTPs does look ok.
I personally want a 1.3 A (ie 1.3 rotor) emblem on the sides.
I also added the OEM mazda windguard to the moonroof (enhances the curves & lines).
The stamped headlight air intake is a bit ricey, but I'm planning to live with it until I can have dual OEM looking fresh air headlight intakes done.
Need to check back on the rx7forum hatch stickers.
If you don't have the OEM mazda Area bodykit / ground effects, those are a good addition. That's 2 side skirts (4 pieces) and front nose lip.
I'm also thinking of a rear bumper lip/skirt but haven't decided which one yet.
Still looking for the glass moonroof. Found out mazda offered it only 1 year, so hopefully I can find the part # and import it
The hatchcover is also a good OEM addition and can be imported from Mazda as well.
There's more I'm working on. Hope to have some pics soon.

Apart from tinted windows and an aggressive bumper, which are way overpriced, I love both my FC's the way they are. Maybe lowered an inch with some sweet racing springs.......watch that camber
My rule has always been.
If your going to invest in making it look fast, then invest in making it fast first.

Honestly with the 89-91 RX-7s, there isn't much to do to get it ultra-pimp. They come that way from the factory! I'm doing some minor things to my car when I get some dough, such as a CAI on the passenger headlight cover, performance/lowering springs, and perhaps GTX or Enfini decals. I plan on keeping my car reasonably stock, perhaps powdercoating the stock wheels black.
