there's a lot of little things and a couple major changes but they deal with the engine, suspension, interior.

one being that i swapped out the entire interior including super clean JDM seats, doors, every panel etc from its beat up, scratched and peeling 93 state to 94+ interior, several new parts like a brand new gauge surround.

I really need to do that to my gauges (replace the chrome rings and plastic cover). how much does the plastic cover cost?

Kai's car looks good enough that the tweeking almost does it a disservice. I wish I could see it in person.

yep.. just like pureRX7, i bought it from ray crowe. it does make a huge difference. its one unit with the rings attached to the cover.

it is amazing how clear and how bright the rings are compared to a 13 year old one. makes a big difference in bringing back an interior.

Here's 2 pics of my car. Should i paint the front lip the same color as the car, or should i get a cf one, or should i just keep it as is? Should i also paint the rims gold? Thanks for any advise.

Not the best pics.

^^^Very nice! Good colour too! In my opinion, I would leave it the way it is... it looks good! If you paint it, than scrape, their goes pain and money wasted... but up to you

Good luck.
