Orange RE-Amemiya Gt 2002 widebody RX-7 at 2003 SEMA!

What do you think. Front wheels are too narrow. I think this is the guy Jay RX-7 from Florida this is the same car as the black C-west RX-7 all show neon lights everywhere. Looks nice
exterior wise but too much going on inside. Check out the link below for before pictures and the new look below at this year SEMA.

Extremly costly to duplicate and very ricetastic.

I don't think the widebody kits make the FD look good. They change the lines and curves of the car way to much. Too many edges on this kit for me. But different strokes for different folks.

I never understand why people like that POS of a kit. Just look at the back. Am I the only one that see's the uglyness of the "vent" style thing in the back.

And the sorry thing is, people pay 7g's for it. Someone is getting ripped off.

RICE: is when the modification list for the stereo is longer than the list for the engine

so ugly ... the stock body is nice by itself.. i could never imagine doing anything to my car outside of the hood, MAYBE side skirts, front lip, and a nifty spoiler
(and rims, of course)

the main body of the car is gorgeous and still looks like modern with its original styling - why would someone do this? looks awful...

Lol, I can't get over it...

Who wants the wheels of their car to be three inches WITHIN the body? What a joke. Looks like someone painted cardboard and slapped it on the original body.

This is what happens when cars become affordable. Can you imagine if Supras could be had for ~10K?

I know this is why I find it funny when people claim things like that!

I beleive that this is Jay Laub's car. The same guy that keeps winning HIN car shows on the east coast. I heard that he was painting his car orange and showing it with the new paint at SEMA. The interior looks almost identical to his.
