yeah that might be cool if it didn't appear as if a mentally handicapped child painted the arrow backwards

LOL!!

Those arrows are cool, though.

Man, that carbon fiber cover actually looks VERY baddass in my opinion.

'99 spec will be the way I go.

However, I really don't think the stock tail-lights are as hideous as everyone makes them out to be. At night it still looks hella sexy. I mean c'mon...the whole damn car, STOCK, is still plain sexy. Though I DO hate the fog-lights that come stock on the Touring's, like mine, bleh, I wanna take them out.







I can live with stock for now. I think it looks fine.

Eventually I'm planning on modeling the visual aspects of my car on Zaino's:





Motivation, I call it.

Personally, though, I'm still debating on whether or not I really like the RZ-style spoiler. I kind of think it distracts from the roundness of the RX-7 body. I really am pretty satified with the stock spoiler. :shrug:

I also saw a 99-spec LED version w/ donut style LED lights.

That's freakin hot man... real sexy. I ain't feeling the smoked/blackened reverse lights, but they would fly if you powdercoated the rims black too IMO... went w/ an overall red on black look. Would look mean as HELL!

You're prob thinking of the pics I posted in this thread: https://www.rx7club.com/3rd-generation-specific-1993-2002-16/99-spec-tail-lights-486459/ Apparently it's the latest craze in Japan... LED EVERYTHING lol.

Yeah, what about the RZ spoiler on 93-95 lights? They're squarish and maybe its a better match. On second look at the painted lights I think it messes with the lines. And, that arrow is hella funny. Yes, hella.
