I had my Tail Lights Converted.

Here is a photo of the MidSection TailLight(s).

The work was done by SevenLust who is a board member here on the RX7Club.

I am extremely pleased with his great work.

 

Thought I'd share some photos of my car.

 

One Last Picture.

 

very clean! lights look good.

 

Thank You. Appreciate your comment. SevenLust does an amazing job. If you are considering doing your lights contact him.

I literally spend hours and hours working on my RX-7. At times it is back breaking work when I wash and wax her. But an RX-7 is not just an ordinary car. As you all know.

 

Whats with the degi gauges?

 

eww digital gauges, i originally wanted an s2000 but after i learned it had digi gauges i was disgusted and couldnt look at it the same again.. now its on a 7!!

 

What's so bad about digital gauges?

 

very nice sir. Any pics of the lights lit up at night?

 

If you look at the first set of pictures you can see them lit. Also one in the 2nd post.

 

i agree..sorry op

 

looks good. 2 questions....

1) how much does he charge?

2) in the close up picture of the middle section, what is that white outline around the lights? looks like tape marks or an etching??

 

[1]. I had mine done in October of 2008. It cost me $90.00. You can email him here. His Screen Name is Seven Lust. He'll gladly answer any of your questions.

[2]. I had just waxed my car when I took that picture so I think it is wax.

Hope that helps.

In my opinion with the round tail lights it gives that extra special look to the RX-7. Makes the car look a bit European looking. Dont you think so?

 

i agree. i think it looks great. after i finish up my swap and free up some funds ill def be hitting him up..

 

Looks good.

 

What does the authentic midsection on 99 lights look like?

 

+1
I dont think the center section changed in the 99spec Fd’s. I think this is just a cosmetic upgrade. Can anyone verify the center section being like the 99spec FD’s?

 

if i was still in FL (with my tools) i would do '99 tails for free. but, i'm not. i'm suck up here in this cold *** new york city weather and my car is nice and warm down in florida.

well, if i ever move back there full-time, maybe i'll start doing '99 tails for free. why? it's fun. i like working on these cars.

i've done two sets so far, including my own, and both came out looking great and both are still leak-free.

never done the center-section though - i didn't know it was any different.

 

Theorie,

I saw the url and your RX-7 looks magnificent.

It's so great to see folks that take pride in owning an RX-7.

Hope you can make it to Florida soon and get the oil flowing. Dont let it sit idle too long.....

Again, great car.

 

You sir are correct. A few years back while i was in japan (US Army stationed there) i picked up a full set of 99 Spec lights. Heck, i didnt even have an Rx7 at the time, but i knew then, i would own one, and heck i do. The centers have not changed. Sadly from storage all 3 pieces are slightly scratched up and i just have sat down to polish them back up to install them on the car. One day i will. Hopefully soon.

 

That looks great. I need to do that to my center section.

 

I was always under the impression that the '99+ FD's had lines that segmented the middle portion of the rear tail lights?

 

The tails do have lines segmenting the sections I believe but the center section is the same from 92-02 as far as I have seen on the 3 that I have.

 

I personaly dont like the look of the center section, i am going to just spray over it. I just have the lights unpluged for now.

 

In my opinion it'd be safer to plug back in the mid-section. The more lights the driver sees behind you the safer for your car.

Just my 2 cents.
