FD body kit
 
Hey all,

I'm pricing together a rx-7 project at the moment and I'll likely be picking up a beat up roller for it...meaning I'm looking for body kits for the rx-7 that aren't super outrageous and aren't super outrageously expensive

I stumbled across this picture on the internet and I absolutely fell in love with this car:

upon further searching it looks like the front bumper is a C. West bumper, but I can't figure out what any of the side body panels are...even the doors look different!

so could anyone tell me what the following parts are?
hood
front fenders
side skirts
doors
rearview mirrors








and does anyone have any recommendations for other good looking kits, I'm highly interested in a widebody kit as long as it isn't super outrageous (and expensive) like the veilside...something clean that gives a little more 'curves' to the already sexy FD body

thanks guys :icon_tup:

Looks like the RE-Amemiya GT-AD kit to me

Looks like expensive.

Zhé 11-24-08 08:20 PM

check out the followin if u want a smooth non edgy front look
feed kit
burnout
mazdaspeed GTC

or start from page 1 of the pic thread, that thread has almost all the kits availble

neox.286 11-24-08 08:26 PM

Thanks! I believe you are right arrowspeed

anyone know where you can order re-amemiya parts from? I've got a bit of a mix of parts I'd like to order...

and also, anyone else notice that the rear bumper looks kinda boxy-ish in that pic, and not as round as the stock bumper is? any guesses at what that might be? (lol, I know it is nearly impossible without seeing the rear of the car)

zhe: thanks man, I'll take a look at those
I do like the burnout kit

email them, they do business in english.

arrowspeed 11-24-08 09:10 PM

Yeah it's pretty hard to tell what the rear may be, I just think it could be the kit making the car seem wider.

bencb44 11-24-08 09:28 PM

The hood isn't RE Amemiya. It looks like the Mazdaspeed R spec. It's my favorite hood,but very very expensive.

Here's a thread about it: https://www.rx7club.com/showthread.p...daspeed+R+spec

its a brs body kit with a custom c-west front bumper and mazdaspeed hood.

neox.286 11-24-08 10:57 PM

THAT'S IT! BRS!

thanks purerx7

arrowspeed 11-24-08 11:35 PM

I stand corrected

Wo:Deep 11-25-08 06:28 AM

hood = Mazdaspeed
front fenders = RE Amemiya AD GT
side skirts = RE Amemiya AD GT
doors = looks like costum
rearview mirrors = unknown


front bumper = C-West N1-Spec Type 1
front lights = C-West

PS: can anyone find something out about the colour?
Who and how can paint that colour??

Thanks in advance!

KaoticFdR1 11-25-08 09:59 AM

Stealing your old post...

hood = Mazdaspeed
front fenders = RE Amemiya AD GT
side skirts = RE Amemiya AD GT
doors = looks like costum
rearview mirrors = APR mirrors. Can be purchased at Vivid Racing.


front bumper = C-West N1-Spec Type 1
front lights = C-West, I know that's the style, but they look more like the Ebay specials then the real thing

PS: can anyone find something out about the colour?
Who and how can paint that colour??

Thanks in advance!

none of those parts are re-amemiya, the kit is from brs designs. The color is from BASF.

neox.286 11-29-08 08:07 PM

care to elaborate on what 'BASF' means to the paint n00blets?

BASF is the company who makes the paint, I believe they are actually a chemical company. I dont know what the color code is, just that the paint was ordered from BASF. Just like House of Kolors is a paint company and you can order paint from them.

I've actually replicated the Burnout rear fenders in steel, if that's a route you're interested in taking. I'll be doing the same for the front fenders shortly. Just PM me if interested and I could provide details...

neox.286 12-01-08 11:20 AM

pardon my n00bishness when it comes to body parts, but I am a performance minded guy and never really dabbled in body work lol

but why would steel fenders/flares be advantageous? wouldn't it be really heavy compared to a fiberglass type setup like shine auto offers? I'd also imagine it would be harder to get that mounted up to the body...but again, I am an exterior n00b lol

AS2222 12-01-08 03:47 PM

that car looks amazing.

are those 19" vsxx? with all the custom work, straight ballin

haha, what's up natey!

oh, what rotary shop did you go to with your car? I think I remember you saying you had to get some work done on yours....I'm weighing out my options, and I think it has narrowed down to an evo or an rx-7 FD and I'll only go with the later if I can get a rebuilt motor by a pro shop dropped in (possibly with a few upgrades teehee, single big turbo?)
