FD RARE PARTS (rare defined)

OK lets take another shot at the rare parts thread.

If you are posting up a part post it up with a pic.
Most rare parts should be somewhat old, only offered in a limited amount, have some sort of rotary history (ie used on Amemiya's GT car/ used on the 787/ signed/ etc..., custom parts can be included if it is something unique I suppose but putting a mugen exhst on your FD does not make it worthy of the thread.

That being said lets try and keep this thread to some really rare stuff so in the future it can be looked upon as a referance guide for rare parts. BOV's need not apply

"Quick edit" It seems that some parts that are rare in one place are not rare in another, such as 99 tail lights, Amemiya parts, etc...
So I guess all I can ask is that you guys use some discretion when choosing what you think is rare. Cheapo wheels, bov's, Home Depot lips do not qualify hehehe.

i hate you for having those seats in such great condition.. i bet you got them cheap too.

In all seriousness, congrats on the score. I'm jealous of those - doesn't happen often.

OK so here is what I was talking about earlier when I mentioned the ugly but very rare FD part.
This is an actual FD part and has an FD part number. I was test fitting it on an FC just to see if they would look half decent on an FC which they dont and they look just as bad on an FD.

Anyhow here they are Mazda OEM/JDM FD3S fender mirrors.

No pictures, but I have a Garage kagotani 4.77 Rear end kit(wonder where I got that...), a real deal Scoot hood, and an Apex PS-Revo exhaust. I only say the exhaust is rare because I know of only one other Forum Member that has it.

Here's the oem titanium brake lever that I just picked up, I was informed by RHDJapan.com that it was one of the last three sets available in the world. The shift **** is my next conquest. I located a seller in Japan, only asking $350 USD btw. I paid almost $200 for the lever. Got to have the matching set.

I imagine there are only a few of these floating around... my super Greddy 7 rear bumper kit. ReAmemiya will make you one for a few pennies.

Here are some authentic Spirit R parts I picked up. More pics of other Spirit R parts coming later. I would post a pic of my discontinued/sought-after FlyRX7 triple gauge 60mm pod but seems other vendors carry the identical mold now.

Wow, thats just terrible, but I guess it would help alot better then the oem mirrors with that damn drivers side blindspot thats almost gotten me into trouble a couple times.
