where can i buy the tripoint engineering wide body kit?

 

ere you go. I have one and it is friggin awsome. Have to cut the rear quarter panels. I ahd a shop do that part and bond the rear flares w/ lip on. Not cheap.
Still no paint.

thank you very much

 

Tried the link and it seemed okay but then I noticed last updated 1999. E mailed them at their contact address and mess was returned. They may no longer be around as far as body kits go because I have been searching for their site myself.

They still have the kit. Just call them at the nuber in their conact info.

 

how much is the kit (or WAS when you bought it)... any pics? how much wider is it than stock?

 

RX7 86-92 TPE-FLARE KIT
Body Kit (f/r flares) 1,000.00
Front Air Dam 250.00
Rear Spoiler 250.00

The kit is not terribly expensive. the main cost comes from the install. Front fenders are just a swap, the rear flares require cutting/rewelding of the quarter panel/wheel-well to accomodate the larger tires and then bond them to the car with the rear spoiler. Gas filler door just leaves a big hole where it should be, so I relocated my filler door flush with the fender and maintained the cable release. The front air dam requires cutting the stock bumper in half and mating them together. I used zus fasteners for quick release. Expect at LEAST $2000 for a shop to do this all without accounting for paint. Don't forget the cost of those massive wheels and rubber you will have to fit under there, $2000 real easy. The flares are 3-4 inches wider I think. Can accomodate up to 17x11's up front and 17x12's in the rear with.

If you are really interested in this, I have my front bumper/air dam for sale. They are already fitted together and are in perfect shape, just need paint.
I just got the RE Ammiya fc2000 front bumper instead.

My car is still not painted and on stands at the moment (a very long moment). So no great pix of my car really. Check out these 20b rides that have the flares. The red one is the exact same kit with fasteners. The white one uses a Mariah front bumper.
