Does anyone know this car?
Hi guys and gals,

I am wondering if anyone knows this car and knows where to get info regarding the
body kit and lights. This thing is sweet! I am looking for new body kit and came across this pic on an image search. Thanks

Ken

i coulda sworn i just saw this same question in another thread...

it's a one-off headlight coversion setup. the headlights are from a Celica. the bumper is C-West. combo lights are '99+ spec. hood is derived from the Scoot hood.

I can think of better ways to throw away 10 grand, like making your FD go faster, handle better, and stop shorter.

Thanks for the input
To those of you that provided helpful info on the photo thanks. While I agree the car looks different than a stock FD I think it looks nice. The lights give it an updated look. While the body on the stock FD is nice it is a bit dated. I never said I was going to spend 10 grand on the body anyway. Anyone know a US source for the RE Amemiya body kit on my avatar? I have seen this blue RX7 all over the net but never seen kits for it.

Thanks

Question
Who makes that front lip? I've never seen a front lip on a C-Westin bumper.

I believe you are confusing classic with dated.

The lights in conjunction with the hood disturb all the flowing lines of the cars design. In other words they look like ***.
