Newer, More Updated-er pics of my ride. and also the asked for rotor Graphic.

Okie guys, Here's the requested pics that are taken when she's dry.. and assembled mostly These pics were taken in my backyard with a Olympus D-490 2.1 Megapixel digital camera. They turned out pretty smooth. there are about 17 pictures availble here: http://www.killermonks.com/gallery/rx7outdoors . I'm only going to post 3 or 4 to this thread, so you can see more there..

If you want a high-res one suitable for desktop backgrounds up to 1600x1200, goto http://www.killermonks.com/rx7/outdoors/Full%20Sized/ be warned, these pics are around 1.1mb, and will take a few minutes to download, so look through the gallery link first.

And lastly, before I post some pics, The rotor graphic from the sunroof is here: http://www.killermonks.com/wonko/rotor.ai It was made completely by me, and is royalty free Take it to a vinyl shop and get it on your car, it looks cool

and now, some pics:






There ya go.. Have at it

thanks I don't actually like the bra, but my bumpers are pretty sad, so it's staying on there until I get my body kit around.. They do help with dings and such, though.

Nice green metallic flamage!
Props on the graphic- if I had a sunroof, I might just put one there.

It's really hard to see the flames man. Use the flash next time. Force the camera to flash, even in the day-light, and it'll make the car pop out of that darkness.

Nice green rotor BTW.

Thanks for the compliments guys.
CWaters - Half of the pictures have the flash, but it didn't do anything in the sun... it was full sun, low humidity, and I think I was too far away.. i'm going to adjust contrast in photoshop to see what it looks like.

WalterH - The rotor image in is Adobe Illustrator 8 format, so you can take it right to a vinyl cutting machine, if you'd like to see it in something else, post a message here, and i'll post the file.

I'm usually not a fan of flames on anything, but classic cars, but I like yours since you did the flames a little different. That rotor is badass by the way.

Thanks Guys! to be honest, i'm not a huge fan of flames, either... but I really liked the design I came up with, and with the power of photoshop, i saw how well the colors I wanted worked, so I went with it.. . If the flames didn't work out, the whole car would be that color green (my backup plan!)

nice!!!! just needs some wheels. I'm planning on going with a kandy brandy wine on mine. I'm also custom fitting a blitz kit. It's n/a so big performance numbers are unreal. So I figured go show. I'll post pics when I'm done. But with a new baby on the way it'll be while.

Wonko, you are an original and you have gone insane on that car! When are you going to get some wheels and wraps?

Keep up the good work.

Yeah do you ahve good condition GXL seats? I was going to look into modifying some local junk yard seats in, since mine are SHOT

FdFcFan - I'm looking at getting rims and a nice subtle body kit ( Erebruni Kit # 370), I'll get the rims in first, probably within the next month, and the body kit will be here within a month and a half... I'll keep the pics flowing when I get them

Keep working the custom FCs!

Trust me, I'm waiting for the day I can The only snag I ran into when doing the body work was that i was taking the bump strip off the diameter of the car. That works well enough when you're fiberglassing it off of metal.. It doesn't work so well when you're trying to patch ABS plastic.. long story short: both bumpers are cracking to hell, and there isn't a damn thing I can do about it, except get a body kit in.. so i'm getting the Ebruni kit mentioned above, and then the bra stays off, as I hate those things.. .but it does look better than the front bumper does now...
