Did they put that spoiler on wrong??? Are those huge vents on the front sides of that car functional??? I guess if they help cool the car that can somewhat justify their looks...

Clean V mount setup.

Hey mister, what kind of car is that and why are you posting pictures of it in the 3rd gen. forum?



And while we're at it, why do people with sunroofs always have to have it cracked open in their pictures as if it were some sort of fancy new feature that no one had ever seen before? Look. I've got a sunroof...

I actually do that with my 7 all the time too. I think it looks good, personally. Also, helps vent out my car when I rip one on those rainy days.

I usually don't bash people, but what the fu*k did you do to that poor vehicle. Those are by far, the worst excuse, for front fenders I have ever seen in my entire life. You have taken one of the most beautiful cars on the planet and converted it in to nothing more than a rice burning pos. Again, wtf were you thinking? Jesus christ, I could go on all night. If you wanted to do that to a car you should have bought a civic. You have destroyed a rare and beautiful vehicle. You should be shot.

I digress..

Meh,

The car isnt that bad. Sure maybe the fenders ruined the awsome curves of the 7, but the car isnt too bad. The wheels have a rediculous amount of lip action going on that I would probably drool on if I saw in person. And I like the v mount set up he has working on that car, I'm curious about what kind of turbo setup he's running.

As for the fenders, meh.... to each his own.
And the spoiler, Im still wondering if they put it on right, is it supposed to hang like that?

Anyways, congrats on the car, nice paintjob but do re-consider those fenders they really do kill the lines that make the fd so... "timeless?"

Very nice paint job! like the cage and those seats look like 180mph seats to me!!

what size/offset wheels do you have? I think it looks pretty good. My advice would be to lower the front just a bit to close up the gap, makes the front look so damn big.

Not that it is so bad but I agree that you have lost the splendid curves of the RX-7 espesially on the front mudguards. The rest is pretty good except for the rare spoiler which is too inclined backwards.

I hope you have very smooth roads since you will encounter lots of punchers with those super low profile wheels.

What I like most is the bonnet design and I like how the color matches with the blue but I doubt I would do it for mine.

Sorry, not feeling the wide body kit. It ruins the lines of the FD.

Harrison..

Car looks bad ***. I love it. Its unique and different.
The front bumper is like F40/viperish.. sweet.
what kind of Single turbo are you using with the Vmount??

Don't let these naysayers/haters bother you..
THese are the same guys that have a base fd with chipped/faded paint
with stock rims and high mile twins that leak oil and smoke, with
boost leaks, and cry because their car don't idle right..
