Just got it back from a friend who did all the body work and paint, not too shabby I must admit...I have the ShineAutoProject front bumper and their sideskirts. The bumper is being fixed..since it was sent to me with cracks and the side skirts are going to be put on went we get the bumper done. Also still need to attach the side moldings and Put my new windshield in too. There alot of things I still need to finish o well. The color is called Royal Maroon Metallic paint code 3A I believe and it is a factory color too!

that looks really nice, love the wheels too
are you keeping those headlight covers black?

 

V nice,how did you strech the fenders?

 

Wow... Your friend does some nice work. Can't wait to see it when it's "done".

 

Looks gorgeous. I would like it even more if the hood was painted to match. Not a big fan of the carbon fibre look. But either way, that car looks great.

 

i love it

i also like how you color-keyed the hatch, thats hot

 

DAYM! your 17s look bigger then my 18s! was that originally an s4 or s5? nice car by the way. you should keep it like that, all stock.

 

i need to go clean myself off.... brb

 

Great lookin rear fenders, I'm going to have to remember that!

 

I second both the colour keyed hatch (looks ****** sweet imo) and the comment about colour matching the hood. I also dont like the black hood design (whether it be carbon fiber or not). Very nice car tho

 

Thanx man, they are going to be color matched when i get the bumper on.

 

I used an easton bat.

 

its an 87..went for the s5 conversion

 

Very nice Bro.

 

Damn......thats hott...

 

how much did that set you back? (i love your car btw)

 

Umm...I got a good deal, A friend of mine is the one who did the work. around 1k.

 

good stuff, imma end up having to do mine myself in my garage :P you definetly got your money's worth, definetly great quality

 

that **** is f*****g pretty

keep up the good work

 

looks great man.

 

I like the bare CF. I had one on my Sileighty and it gave it "definition" to the front end. RX-7s are sorta bland in the front so the CF helps it in my opinion. I would leave the hood CF and bumper/hight covers red. I repainted mine blue a couple weeks ago and I neglected to paint the hatch due to laziness so I need to paint it too. My sunroof as well.

 

damn nice! always a pleasure to see gorgeous rx's! i envy your pulled fenders! wish i had done that to mine before the body and paint work.... oh well, thats why i have another turbo2 im building for my girl (at least thats what she thinks) cant wait to see her w/ the bumper on

 

Very nice. Tons of props on the color choice. Hope to see your 7 when it's finished.

 

cf hood?
