I appreciated the EB's more after seeing them for the first time In person when I bought them.

There Is not enough pics floating around to do this Kit justice. Again, my opinion.
Lets see some pics then. All of the ones Ive seen are non painted or poorly painted so it looks out of place and kind of gay.

IMO, 500$ replica for something that costs 600$ is a rip off.

As from now, I have no pics. Infact, they were painted the wrong Silver.

You are "kind of funny". So, the pics that you have seen, although poor, allow you to come to the conclusion they are "kind of gay"? Okay, maybe out of place.

Your latter point seems to make more sense. However, as HKS mentioned earlier, that was a guesstimate that would be reduced, providing their was a demand to make several copies.

well, since the ultimate question is about demand on this design... unless it's < $200 count me out, sorry.

Not a fan of the fixed headlights on the 7.. At yesterday's meet there was a fixed headlight FD and I didn't like the look of the kit very much... I think the pop ups look pretty neat even though they are from like back in the day

I once saw a kit on a Miata that was awesome. It kept the popup and original look when closed, but had much smaller dual round headlights in place of the large square. The headlights only opend half way. This gave it a custom look with out changing the original design too much. I would totally shell out some money for that.

HKS Turbo II Is a good friend of mine that Is no longer on the forum. Originally, the plan was to use my East Bears as the master copy. Nothing has changed since so this thread can be closed.
