I just got mine today to finish up my '99 conversion. I just wanted to see what everyone else thought about it. it's a lot beefier looking than the usdm ones. it's a hard plastic instead of fiberglass, but looks much better made. i was considering hacking my stock rebar and using it, but now after seeing the new one, i don't even wanna consider it. for all you guys doin the conversion, get this thing!

 

Wondering how much you paid...and from where. Also, can you post a pic? I'm about to order the 99 front end and was considering hacking my original rebar to save $$...

 

Yeah more info

 

yeah, gimme just a lil bit and i'll post the pic. i don't have any pics of the original one, but shouldn't be hard to dig one up by searching. also, i think it was $375. might wanna double check. jason at the rx7store got it for me. he's got a lot of '99 stuff in stock right now so hurry

 

okay, here's the pics. as you can tell, it has all the appropriate mounting points and bracing. if you want your 99 front to fit as it should, this is a nice piece

 

well i have 4 more good pics, but it's not letting me post them, if anyone is willing to upload them, put up ur e-mail and i'll send the pics to you. dial up is owning me

 

number 2

 

number 3

 

number 4

 

okay, so the last one won't upload. it says it's been attached before and i can't find a way to get it on there, so if anyone is that interested, i can just send the pic to ya

 

I have one-brand new. Won't fit with my FMIC.

 

yet another advantage to the a'pexi kit! lol

 

what are the little tabs for (3 of them) around the oil cooler inlets. Are they for the 99 driving lights or the (99)oil cooler ducting?

 

i'm not too sure. i was thinking mounts for the fogs, but i didn't buy them or the ducting, so i'm unsure

 

I have the 99 bumper as well, but I just modified my original. It worked great doing it that way but I can clearly see why the new re-bar is the way to go. Especially if the mounting tabs for the lights/duct work are part of it. I want the 99fog lights but was unsure where I was going to mount them. I guess I just spent another $375. Thanks buddy, Just kiddin.
Great pics

 

those tabs on the black part line up with the brake ducts and the ones on the bottom line up with the 99 spec undertray.

 

You have to cut it..

I'll post some pics.. of my install..

 

 

wow, your car is gorgeous! almost makes me wanna keep mine black, but i sweat the titanium grey metallic way too much

 

na

 

Anybody got pics of the 99 rebar?
