I bought a wing, never seen it before..lots of pics.

Hey dudes,


Last night i bought a wing from my buddy Bart.

It had been sitting in his junker rx7 for the past 7 years, and was never mounted or finished.

I never seen it before, and i thought it looked wicked so I bought it.


Heres a few pics..



The back of the wing isn't flush with the body because there is 4 bolts underneath that are still in place so it makes it sit higher in the back...


So who made this wing? anyone have pics totally painted up etc?

I just "put" it on my beater for pics, it will be going on my TII.

If im not mistaken, it looks similar to the Kaminari one. It might be it.

Yes the man above is right. Its the Kamanari wing. I have it and i like it. The full body kit is realy cheap but basic looking.

It is Kaminari, I used to have the rear bumper too, but I took it off (as you can see from the holes in the bumper), and will soon be removing the wing too, replacing it with the erc one.

Hey brad: since you didn't sell me that turbo (i'm not still bitter ...) How about you send me a pic of your front end. What I/C are you running now? and how's the weather in the wintry city of yours?

Thank you AreExSeven for posting those pics of your car!!

I am defenatly going to install it now. Is yours hollow inside? or finished? because mine is hollow.. im going to be filling it with that cocking stuff so it will be more sturday..instead of the fiberglass by itself.

Ill get a pic of what i mean in few minutes..

Steel, I don't have to fix that rust problem because that is my 87GX "BEATER" as i stated above!!. I am putting it on my 88 TII.

The rust on there is just surface.. i already looked and poked around. The rear bumper the previous owner spilled brake fluid all over it and left it.. so thats why the back bumper is..messed up :0 Not bad for a $200 car.

All the other guys post some more pics that you have of this wing!!!

thanks

I have the same Kaminari rear spoiler on my '86. I was thinking about getting rid of it but I still kind of like it and plus kaminari had a fire and I don't believe they are still producing 2nd gen rx-7 kits.
