Its not my style but waht do I know I have Itegra taillights on my T2 (quote THAT in your sig!).
I have a lot of respect for the fact that they are not selling the first batch, as Erebuni and most other man.s would sell them. For the first trial run they actually dont fit that bad. Making a 3rd gen bumper fit a 2nd gen is hard,.....I have looked into it.

My Q's are
1. Whay does that bumper say Aeroduo on it? Was the mold made from a knock off by Aeroduo?
2. Does the maker produce bodykits for a living? Or is this a entrepeneurial venture? Either way much respect to him/them.

Just to let you guys know. I have just put the GTC on my 3rd gen, look for a big body shop bill to get it to fit.

That is just the guinea pig car to do test fits. I seen the same car and same bumper when i picked up my GTC front. I want to take pictures installed in my car but im too lazy to do that right now.

well dose it look good?? if you have one you got the defective ones. you dont have the final kit. they had problems with the 1st batch so if you have one you got the defective ones. i would be kinda sketchy about n e one who says they have one because from what chuck says they sold 2 of the defective kits so there are only 2 that have left his shop so i i dont beleve anyone till i see pics to prove it. PEOPLE WHO ARE SERIOUS PM ME OR EMAIL ME AT JBUSH85016@AOL.COM AND LET ME KNOW THAT YOU ARE INTERESTED IF I GET ENOUGH PEOPLE TOGETHER I MIGHT GET HIM TO COME DOWN LOWER I AM GOING TO TALK TO A Fc ROTARY SHOP HERE IN TOWN HE IS INTERESTED IN ABOUT 6-7 SO EVERYONE PLEASE LET ME KNOW SO WE CAN GET THIS OFF THE GROUND

Thanks
Jeremy

turbosmoke: I was in on the front end from the very beginning many months ago and it seems I am one of the few left with faith. I told chuck just keep the money and i'll wait for the new one. The first batch apparently had some warp type problems associated with heat and the mold. But he has assured me he will personally check every one from here on out and not take the word of the fiberglass folks.

The new ones should fit very good and i personally think it looks nice. If anything, it's original, and thats what I wanted. I'll get it fitted and get some pics in asap after i recieve it. I can tell you if you bought that front end from japan you would pay 2 or 3X as much. at 500.00 it is a Steal.

I've been in on the front end since the post battles with Dave at fc3s.org and all his efforts, but $940 for the setup just isn't in my budget this summer. I know Japanese companies and importers charge an arm and a leg but the price still seems high.
That being said, I do appreciate Chuck's efforts and will consider this front end next time. School is coming and I'll be broke for the next two semesters.

FUGLY! Maybe cut some holes in the doors to match the holes in the front end. I hope you have a 3 foot tall spoiler to go on the hatch to truely destroy what was a nice RX-7.
Looks like white rice on the front end of the car!

I think it matches nicely with the stock lines. It looks better than any other front end out there.

Hey fcturbo2, are you getting the lights too?
