building a weekend beater
So I've been a rotary guy for about 10 years now and being that I turned 24 today feb/15/11 I figured I'd get my self a birthday gift so I bought anrx7 convertible. Car was originally VIPERS
but, it didn't include the fenders hood, body kit, coilovers, rims or any of the interior, but the dash and steering wheel were still intact.
Since I have had a crap load of dd rx7s built for street racing touge action and parking lot battles, I have **** loads of spare parts, so I added T2 fenders a spare aluminum hood and a spare S5 bumper
So far I've been taking the ac stuff out and anything plastic our metal

Thanks truthfully I hated them too I've had about 7 coupes and plenty of chances to get nice verts for crazy cheap but never really cared for them I guess I just wanted something different

since I don't have coilovers yet I set it to stock height
And here it is installed
Originally these were supposed to go in my old t2 before I was forced to part out
