Hi

Here are a few pics of our just painted RX7

Not quite ready to take home yet but we can't wait till it's ready

What do you think

We were quite shocked when we saw it this morning , but we love it













Here are some before pics:

 

interesting color....not liking the body kit to much....wtf did they do to they hood....?

 

man whhyyy the wing\!!!!! why???

 

just gota be honest here

hood: invader AND with funky paint? bad

color: meh just dont like orange, just my opinion.

that spioler: wtf were u thinking???



it would really be ok but i would seriously think about losing the spoiler. thats like the exact same thing u see on hondas n ****. otherwise its not bad

 

the car looked best in the first before pic. now im gona go away before i let my emotions get the best of me.

 

Idk...its unique...

 

thats the color i was thinking of painting mine! haha...hmm its not that bad...i dont care for how they painted the hood though

 

You better have some gnarly *** single turbo set up to counter act all that rice!

 

Didn't think you guys would like it, never mind. Though it was worth a try.

Oh buy the way it is a twin turbo - sorry to disappoint

See Ya

 

I actually like the color a lot ... but for my tastes the wing is nasty and the hood would look better all painted. It's original, though.

 

like the color but the kit,wing and tail lights... ??? aihhhhh.. not cutting it..

 

Thats the beauty of it though. Who cares!? Seriously, if its what you like, thats great! Right? Who cares what our views are of your car.

Your not american, so that is one of the reasons why most of us dont like that taste so much. Its more of a flashy style that ive noticed that lots of europeans and such like. Nothin wrong with that, its just that americans tend to like the classy, closer to stock approach.

Good luck with finishing your project!

 

The colour is very nice and the body kit isn't too radical,IMO. Post pictures of the finished car, I'm sure it'll look even better then.

 

I think it is unique, too. From a style issue, it is very homogenous. It's a little extreme for the taste of most around here (mine is stock, no wing), but so what? The paint job is flawless and you won't find another 3G painted like it anywhere. I don't think the wing is all that bad considering the rest of the design. That's what I look for. I want to see consistency and some original vision if you are going to mess with body kits, wings, that sort of thing.

The hood is pretty extreme, but my only issue is that it lacks functionality. Look at photo number 2. I've seen some hoods like this used on muscle cars in the 60s but there should be slots directly under the point where the front of the hood arcs upward. The point would be to draw air upwards through the radiator and expel any heat from the forward engine bay. It would work that way if there were slots under the upward curvature, I believe. They wouldn't normally be more than an inch or so deep but would would extend across the length of the two flaps.

I'd like to see more photos from a little more of a distance, quite frankly. Tight shots like this in a garage tend to be shot on the wide angle lens side. Show me any cute model who looks good shot with a wide angle lens. She'll look like hell. Shoot some with a 100-135 mm focal length and then let's see.

 

aww he got butt hurt and he's never going to come back....too bad.......


ROFL

 

yeah like said above, as long as your happy with it thats all that matters, but honestly im not feeling the wing or hood, i think that color would be nicer if the car still had the orginal look to it with some dark windows

 

hahau guys r way too nice. cmon that looks like what would happen if u went on ebay and bought all the crappy junk for our car they sell and slap it on. GAAAAAH...
its like a big orange frankenstein!

the feed style bumper is a good choice...but it looks reallly weird with the cwest sides....my problem is the hood. its that retarded invader thing that like someone pointed out, is not functional at all its just a rice part. and thats some goofy universal spoiler that runs rampant on neons and civics and cavaliers, etc...

sorry im a dick...

i say lose the hood and spoiler, and instead of the sqaurish looking cwest sides, go with some amemiya style sides to go with the flow of the rear skirts, and u got a pretty good looking car. the colors alright....

but yeah maybe thats not their taste, but DAMN thats some fugliness...

 

Don't listen to what they say about the color because mine is painted the exact same, I even have the same front end. Let me guess the color code; lamborghini orange?

Here are some pics of mine.

Niceeee, it is a good color, just has to be on the right body

 

I never liked rice, but when it's done right I gotta say "great looking car". I like the color, dislike the wing, and think the hood is actually pretty cool looking. Very unique and lots of hard work put into it. Great Job!!

 

...pwnt.. your wing seriusly looks like ****. you back

 

lol

I gotta agree

 

If I attempted to do something like that to my car, I would hope my wife (or anyone else) would have enough sense to slap me upside the head. It looked much better in the "before" pics. That's just my opinion though...

The only thing that matters is whether or not you like it. Looks like the quality of the paint job is very good. Congrats.
