That spoiler is made by shine auto, very reputable vendor. Look at the vendor section here in this site. its called shine auto low profile spoiler iirc

Edit- on second look that does look like the pantera spoiler.

No...it's the RS Pantera replacement center section. The shine spoiler covers the center section and the tails.

So, that photo was taken by Brannon Pool @ southrnfresh, http://southrnfresh.com/wordpress/

I'm pretty curious to find out more info on that rx7 as well, so I sent an email to them to see if Brannon remembered who's FD that was or any info about it.

It belongs to a guy named John from Baton Rouge. From what I've heard it has a V8 conversion that is not running yet (was trailered to the show in the pics).

He has another FD that GorillaRE is doing a 3-rotor conversion.

Besides those the two FD's, he's got some other heavily modded cars including an NSX, 1100whp Supra, Civic drag car, etc.
