I have been thinking about going widebody lately. all of those E production RX-7's at the runoffs were sweet!

I dropped the wing off at the body shop today after i got off work. He is pretty busy but he said it will be done by Tuesday. Im excited to see how its going to turn out.

Fred, i talked to him about making a mold of the wing, he said it wouldn't be a problem so depending how it turns out i'll have a couple wings if you're interested.

Ok, I'll let you know next week how much its going to cost. O and i just realized how the heck am i going to get this thing to your house. I had it in three pieces and it was still way to big for the car. There is no way its going to fit in the car with it all together.

Stopped by the shop to take a look at the wing, its back to one piece and that's about it.

Im not going to be able to test fit it on the car for another week or so while he finishes making the mold and then paints the wing.

Not sure, i havent talked to my body guy in awhile. I'll stop by monday and see how far he has gotten and let you know.


Beautiful wheels Alex!
Thanks, I like them a lot. i just wish they were a bit wider.

I got the fourth rim in the mail yesterday i'll probably buy some tires next week so i can roll it on to a trailer.
