I dont recall off hand, but just guessing, I would have to say it was just over 1k. I just recently bought the 99 re-bar. I had modded my original one, but if you want the 99 fog lights you must have the 99 re-bar to mount them properly and with ease.
I found the receipt for the 99 bumper. I paid $750 for the bumper and about $250 for the lower lip. The lights I bought from a friend who never used them.

The re-bar, I just bought, and was around $375.

Rx7 store should have all the current pricing for you or RX7.com.

Where did you get the Apexi side skirts. The prices I've seen, so far, are outrageous for a couple of pieces of fiberglass, and can only be sourced from overseas.

I think I bought them from SR Motorsports.
They were spendy, but they fit very nice. I had to do very little trimming. If you buy some, or buy any sideskirts, make sure you install them before you paint them. get them to fit perfect first, do all of your trimming/sanding/drilling and then get them painted. This way you wont have to mess with them once there painted. A little more work, but a-lot worth the extra time. FYI

Motor is back out of the car and going in for a re-build. ****** o-rings. I cant keep coolant in the motor, it keeps pushing it out into the overflow tank while driving. Add coolant light comes on and then it overheats. I was hearing a flushing sound through my heater core last fall and saw bubbles in my filler neck, I should have just had it re-built when I had it out this winter. On a positive note, I will now have a ported motor and have gotten really good at pulling these engines. Once I get the motor back I will be making a run to Rotary Performance to have it tuned. i will get some dyno numbers up for you guys. I am curious to see what the 99 twins will put down, at around 17psi, on a street ported motor. I am hoping for around 375rwhp.

motor is back in and car is running. Drivng to TX in a couple weeks to have it tuned and will post dyno sheets when I get back. I am really hoping to see 375RWHP. The tuner said he got 385rwhp out of his personal car with the same mods I have. 99 twins and a 3mm street port. Plus many, many others.
I will also get some better pics up soon of the whole car.
Maybe even a vid of it on the dyno.
