front bumper "hack job" is actually straight. Threw it on in the dark and tightend pass side to much, put a bind on plastic.

front end is temporary until i can mold fd lights into ebay **** quality front bumper.

rims are 16x8 -1 up front and 16x9 +32 in rear. Ebay 25mm fenders are on their way. Lip is 240sx fiberglass lip to home depot wood and boat resin (also where i bought my spray gun).
Completely changed the look of the car in 3 days and just under 500 dollars.

Feel free to post hateful comments and compliments. I respect this forum for the most part and want to see what people have to say.

 

ok here are the rest......

they were too big i guess.

Headlights are broken too. I think this is a common problem on some rx7s.

ya the headlights breaking is definitely a problem on these cars... when i was looking at one most of them were not working but i dont think it looks too bad, looks like a lot of cutting but not bad man

 

You should just get a aftermarket front bumper and s5 trim and finish it off. The front is a little hacked up for my likes.

 

Yup actually am in the process of molding in 2002 fd marker lights into the aftermarket ebay fiberglass front bumper. The front mount opening will still look as "specHACKular" in the aftermarket bumper cover. Waiting for d1 fenders though, so it might be awhile til i finish it off.

A little rough for my liking but id love to see the finished product.

 

each to their own.

 

itswill, it will be a lot cleaner once the front end is on. Where is corinth?

john ny

 

im near saratoga exit 16 off the northway.

 

I'm actually diggin that lip for some reason. Can't wait to see the finished result.

 

you tryin to make ur front look similar to this??

 

What's up with those wheels? Offset on the front looks all goofy.

 

the hack job on the front of the bumper remindes me of my buddys dsm lol but what ever works

 

evil eagle, always liked rediculous offset in the front, with wider tires in the rear. Did this on my 7 because i like the look of d1 fenders in the front but hate the cheeseball fucked up gas door look in the rear. Fc3sdrifterz: That is pretty much what i am going for, just with the front bumper that comes with the bodykit and a possessed die grinder look like i have now. Just cleaner

john ny

 

oh yeah, and thanks for the engine evil eagle. Thing has worked out well for me.

john ny

 

whoa...front headlights need to be fixed and definitely get a new front bumper

also...get a set of matching mouldings and some different mirrors.

 

From the front firewall back this thing looks okay. The front is just haggard, looks like it was in a fight with a sawzall and lost bad, the lip and crappy eye headlight look don't help at all either. I also think the wheels look weird right now, lets see with the wide fenders.

The rest is okay, it's obviously a work in progress like you said. I would put the headlights down and put any other front end you have on there for now. Keep posting as you progress.

+1 for the working antenna.

 

Where's the exhaust?

 

exhaust tips are there in the first picture. Gonna paint my mirrors. NJ greenbud: "I would put the headlights down and put any other front end you have on there for now" .....funny. I like the look of the car my head, just trying to match it is all. People are weird about the front and the wheels. Both cases are extreme though. They either want to set my car on fire for what i have done to it, or make sweet love to my exhaust outlets. No one kinda likes it. Its extreme **** type hate, or a deep rooted obsessive kinda love like that guy that stalks uma thermon.

where in NY are u?

 

orange co. newburgh ny

 

updated front and fenders....... Oh and bushing broke in my already broken lights. I will fix it soon along with wires hanging over the left intercooler pipe and side markers.



john ny

 

That looks better than before!

 

At the beginning it looked like *** but now it actually looks pretty sweet. You can now say you have an original fc!

 

thanks. I actually took off work 3 days to finish this. My obsession has reached a whole new weird level.
