Interest: ShineAuto Rear Roof Spoiler

If anyone is interested in buying the Shine Auto Rear Roof Spoiler and owns a 1993 RX7 then we're out of luck. Since the mold they made was for a 94 FD. The rear windshield shape is a bit different compared to the 1993. I talked to Shine and he said if there was atleast 15 people interested in buying the rear spoiler then he would do a run for us 93 FD owners.
Price: $150.00 FRP $250.00 Twill Carbon Fiber.

So we need 15 dedicated people to send deposits to shine and get this going if you are serious lets make this happen!!!

The 93 and 94 rear windshield have different shapes that makes the rear spoiler not a stick and paste application. You would need to sand it down fit and re-sand until you got the shape correct or pay a autobody to do it for you. Either way its it won't look good if you sanded Carbon Fiber and didn't want to paint it...

I can tell u from experience when you order a CF hatch from a well known vendor, no one asks you if you have a 93 or 94?

I say that the issue is the consistency of the product, not the 94/93 glass.

I agree. There is no way that Mazda made a change there after 93.

I've noticed a ton of differences between what you would think was the same. Automatic has a different alternator, a/c compressor (touring), rear engine plate, wiring harnesses, interior pieces/controls and much more from the manual of the same year. The 94 RX-7 has different wiring harnesses from the 93 even in the same trim/transmission. There is a ton of weird parts that are completely different from what you would think was the same between models. It's very well possible the rear hatch glass is curved slightly different but uses the same hatch. Probably a price/aero thing.
