If you have the car painted matte, you can also have a matte clear applied. I would think you could wax it just like any other paint.

It's been a while

I'm not too sure, how many people actually remember me. But I did a thread on here once of my RX-7 when I put the new wheels on the car. There's been a few updates since then which was about 2 yrs ago. So I figured I'd share with the Rotary Public. Hope you enjoy!

I tried to chase you the other day, but traffic got in the way. The new lights & spoiler look good, what kind of numbers are you making now?

What do you drive? Right now I run pump gas and 12 PSI, probably making 350ish? On race gas and 19PSI I make 519 at the rear. I'm hoping for 600 in the future!

Nothing that is worth posting at the moment. But I'll get some new ones in a few weeks or so.

Sunset, that looks great. How is suede supposed to stand-up to the sun, will it eventually fade out? I want to do something similar, but in alcantara.

^Yeah, and you can be like one of my buddies out here (he's on this forum too so I hope he sees this haha) that takes a beautiful CYM and puts the complete carbon fiber C West body kit on it, including fenders, doors and hatch. HAHAHA. Steve Kan already gave him **** for it too. Calm down though, he's already talking about getting another FD to put the carbon fiber pieces on and turn this one back to full CYM.

I love to give him **** about it though haha.

I wonder why he hasn't posted pics of his car on here?
