rx7 addict, I get the impression you have seen my car in person. My shop is at 258 central ave in Dover, and I am at the track every wednsday. Please come talk your smack to my face, somehow I bet that wont happen. Every one likes to make a buck, but just so you guys know it akes no longer than making a fiberglass product, and the materials cost about 20$, go to www.uscomposites.com, and do the math. I am not concerned about making $ on these products, so i could care less about keeping the secret. Mine may not be perfect but at least I have the ***** to try. You guys are exactly right my car has some unperfect parts, but atleast I have the ***** to do things myself, instead of waiting hoping for 2 years that finally I will get the part I want.

I am a big advocate of DIY-ing! May not be perfect but, how proud can you really be of your car if you arent responsible for the mods, your only responsible for having money to buy them. Know what I mean.

This Thread is orginally a year old! I read through most of the posts and looks like pics were never posted. Any idea if the CF Surrounds were ever made? I'd like to have an option "when" (it will) mine cracks again.

mazdaspeed7 finally e-mail me back the reason he did not respond back to me was because he change his e-mail and the delay was because he was waiting for supplies so i would like to apologize to mazdaspeed7 for what i say above raul
