I was thinking the same lol. I think a black center on the spoiler will accent the car better with the black in the front. Great looking car btw!

Went down to Hoonigan for a "Smoke Break", can't wait to see the vids. Super fun day. Some 50k likes/200 comments on Super Street's instagram, holy crap.

Fullerton right? Since the car is rather on the wild side, I'm curious if the cops bother you much?

That's right! I was on my way down to San Diego from my area up here in Irwindale.

As funny as it sounds, I haven't been pulled over. I get 'talked to' whenever I'm stopped somewhere and they drive by, but I tell them it's a "show car" with a "Smog-legal V8 swap" and they usually take a walk around and roll out.

Haven't gotten popped doin any 'spirited driving' or anything, I'm sure that'll be a different conversation. The car's not quiet, either...

Be careful in Orange county man. When I was going to UCI I got pulled over for having my blinker on too long and harassed for supposedly being drunk at 8am on a school day. Luckily I wasnt in the Rx-7.

Love the look of those wheels. I've got the std fitment on both my FM10s and Mach Vs. What are the offsets on those? I may need to buy some new lips...

thanks! whats the std fitment by the way?

my offsets are +23 front and rear, fronts are by 9, and rear by 10's. i brought bigger rear lips, and swapped the old rear lips to the fronts so it can be more flushed

Here are some pics of my RX7 with its new TwinZ Design diffuser...this is a new product and should be available in the US next to other new products by the end of the year if we find a good dealer to work with.

TwinZ Design specializes on the Nissan 300ZX and we are finally working on the RX7 FD...plan to make new side skirts, front bumper, spoiler and other nice products to offer a different alternative to what is available the market.

Please LIKE our facebook site for updates on new products we'll be releasing soon!

A sneak peak of the diffuser
