I have an 87 RX7 with a stock body, due to retardation in a shopping centre carpark i now have an unsightly dent that needs fixing.

Is there a diagram of where the bolts are located to remove the front bar and the wheel guards?

On the wheel guard I have removed the 4 bolts from the top in the engine bay, the 2 in front of and 2 behind the wheel at the bottom, and i can see 1 at the back where the door opens. I think there is 1 possibly 2 near the lights that i cannot get to.

On the front bar I have removed one from each side from the top next to the lights and can see 2 underneath the lights.

I have done a few searches on the forum and cant find any information and i have looked on my CD service manual with no luck, can someone please help.

 

Okay, I'm pretty sure "front guard" means "front fender" to us.
"Front bar" = "front bumper"?
Sorry for the translation process...

When you open the door, you can see most of the bolts to be removed.
There's one bolt in the middle rear that needs to be accessed from removing the plastic inner guard in the wheel well - this keeps the fender bowed outward to clear the door when you open it.
There's two bolts underneath on the "rocker" on the rear of the fender.
There's three connecting the front of the fender to the front bumper - you can get at them by again removing the plastic inner guard and sticking your hands inside.
There's two on the bottom front.
There's one NUT that's a pain in the *** all the way in the top corner that connects the fender to the front bumper!

I can see what you mean by tricky, i can barely get my arm in there, let alone a tool. Its as bad as removing the AC piping from underneath the battery.

I'm getting a new rachet tomorrow, cos the one i have is useless.
