Don't use it as a parts car. There arent too many S5 II's out there. I've looked. BTW Congrats, It looks like you got a decent car for a good price. Good luck.

Thanks for the advice! I'll hafta check out the Mazdaspeed lip; I didn't see anything on their main site so I'll have to look harder I guess. Anyone know where I can find it? I gotta assess the damage to the bumper and fender; hopefully they won't need replacing but I want it fixed right this time. The hatch lock will need to get fixed, the pass. seat will need to be re-covered, the carpet I may remove or replace, the steering wheel I'm going to replace, and I'll have to check the contacts on the power window switches. I'll figure out what's ailing the sunroof when I get it. Fixing or moreso reinstalling the emissions equipment is gonna be a real blast... I'll probably head down to pick it up on the 26th; until then you can find me poring over RX-7 parts online

Oh, that one! I looked at a car that had one of those already; It looks functional but I dunno I'm not a big fan... I think I'll try the FEED lip; I think it looks closest to the one on Ryosuke Takahashi's FC (pretty much the biggest reason for discovering the awesomeness that is the FC3S was due to watching Initial D. I'm a dork; whatever!) Anyone have experience with the CorkSport or RaceOn USA widebody fenders? I'm intrigued.... Dammit I wish all those body parts weren't so expensive and I didn't have an MR2 to fix up first!

Not on your life! When my MR2 is done it'll chew up and spit out Elises for fun. For the record, Anobii is the previous owner, if anyone knows him. He said he stopped posting here a while ago, however, 'cause he drives a Mirage.....shame!
