Yup, I think you are right, look like it would need some custom tweaking to get those add ons to fit a different bumper though.

I was pondering this too. I just aquired a genuine Mazdaspeed GTC bumper and to make it fit with this kit it would seem as though I need to cut it

Cutting that beautiful bumper would make me cry!

Didn't want to chime in on this thread as I don't believe it is our place to. However, I believe there is some impression we will replicate this and I guess people are "waiting" and asking us if we are. I can confidently say we have no interest in it. So if this is something you want and don't mind the price, then I would encourage you to go for it and go through our Rx7club vendors. And post lots of pics

However, there is always the possibility we can create Feed style fenders wider than the standard 25mm. The challenge would be figuring out the best way to integrate with an after-market front bumper as seamless as possible.

If anyone cares about my personal opinion of the FEED GT3 kit, I do think it is a bit aggressive. Rear fenders and sideskirts look great. I can do without the shark-like gills and Rx8 side marker on the front fenders. The add-on attached to the feed front bumper was creative, but not exactly my cup of tea.

HOLY CRAP!

When I brought my full RE-A kit from Japan to Canada shipping cost me over $5,000 CAD! This is an awesome price on moving those large pieces!

Ohhh, well now. I'm happy and unhappy I've just stumbled upon this post. Have the regular feed widebody. Now.. must have this. That's a pretry penny for these new fenders.

Any chance of a group buy?

Can you fit the kit with standard s8 front bar with extensions to suit?

I generally hate kits but this thing ia amazing and well suited to FD

If it was cheaper then everyone would have one...then it would not be as cool.

I really wish people would stop pushing for replicas of parts that are still available from the original designer/manufacturer. No longer available, long discontinued parts, maybe (but that still sucks for the people who sought them out and paid a premium to get them).....


.......but out right ripping off a legit company? That is not cool

I dunno. That pic Blue TII posted of the front side...holy crap that's the least flowing, busiest thing ever. It almost seems like an afterthought..."Oh yeah, we have to make it work with a stock width front end!"
I think the guy with the blue car agrees because he seems to be looking for ways to cover that area up in half the pics.

here's mine. Pic courtesy of rotary13b1com (IG):

my IG is fd_rx7_ron for a few other pics. She's still in progress and hibernating in So Cal, hence the lack of pics.

Awesome!

I look forward to seeing more pictures as your project progresses.

I have to ask; hibernating in so-cal? surely you can daily an FD in that climate if you wanted?
Now mine is hibernating, -35C not counting the wind chill.......although that’s warmer than where I work!

I'm in a colder state (it snowed last week) so the FD stays in CA in the winter. There are a few clean up items in the engine bay, but the rest of the build will focus on the interior. Wheels will also change this year, but working out the details on that. My build thread is so far behind I don't know if I'll update it. Most of the pics and videos along the way are on another phone I don't have anymore.
