k, this isn't a flame to you, but that would look horrible. It might help at 150 Mph+, I'll give you that, but then only strap 'er on when going for those top speed runs. Its hideous to drive around on the street with, and you would get laughed at, and called rice. We're trying to distinguish ourselves from the honduh boys...
Unless you got a track only car, or only do top speed runs, I'd leave it off. My 2 cents.

Talking yeah

my car is out of shop next week....

After the guy finished all the body work, I said what the hell. I had him refinish my whole body. He stripped all the paint off....then he has fixed every single door ding, nick etc......the body is now perfect!!!

and monday and tuesday, its getting a brand new blaze red paint job!!!! Its a 2,500 dollar paint job....Not cheap, not expensive, but he is giving me a break, and he does excellent work....He said its going to look way better than even off the showroom.....Its going to shine!!!!

I will have it back by friday at the latest..... I will take some high quality pictures and post them. I was going to get the knightsport body kit, but I read that whole thread about the stock look, and I think I would be dissapointed if my rx7 didn't look like an rx7.... Im keeping the body the same, however my gf bought me the fresh headlight scoop, so It will have that on there....Im getting the stock wheels powdercoated white after I get it back also....I think with a perfect straight body, powder coated white wheels, and my new rp springs to drop it 1" , its going to look badass.....

I personally think those wings are BUTT UGLY, they have no place on a street ride... maybe a F1 or something but not a street ride...
My opinion...

Sounds sweet! I'll be very interested in seeing how your car turns out.

I'm especially curious what you'll think with the new RB springs and the 1" drop. Do you have all-stock suspension now and just changing out springs?

Besides the fact that GT-wings are butt ugly on anything....

That wing probably wouldn't fit on the back of a TII anyways. There is very little room to mount anything back there, so im pretty sure its a waste of time anyways.
