will do, and ill be taken plent pics while all the prep work is being done too

 

check it out bitches... got me the 99 spec replica

 

ok so im gonna start the sanding later today ill defenetly be posting more pics soon, hopefully my primer, paint gun, and fiberlass arrive soon!!!

 

Damn, leave it wingless! Doesn't look like the 99 spec matches it very well.

And get some rims! haha

Still looks awesome though.

 

i do like it wingless but i just love that spoiler and it doesnt match well cause its yellow :P and rims will definitly be comin soon, altho i cant decide between the

57 pros


and the 57s


the only reason why im considering the 57s is because the are about $1000 cheaper than the pros. what do you guys think?

 

Pros FTW. But then again, 1K is a lot of money and the 57S arn't that bad, i've just been more of a fan of 5 spoke on the RX-7s, I like the lip on the pros too.

 

im a fan of 5 spokes, but when it comes to this... i say 57S will look better on a burnout kit.

 

burnout is a simple kit, would look goofy with 7 spokes. don't leave your options only to the gram lights... look at some other ones, preferably used because they're practically the same. burnout would look great with some advan trispokes. unless you're going to track the car, i don't see a crucial point to sticking with gram lights.

 

for some reason when i tell my self im gonna do or get something i stick to it so i think im gonna stick w/ some sort of rays wheels. i did thatr w/ the burn out kit, the first time i saw a pick of the burn out kit i told my self i was gonna get it, then shine reproduced it for half the original price and i couldnt pass it up. also heard that the 57s are lighter than the pros but the pros just look amazing but then again the 57s are very nice... man decisions decisions... ill proly end up getting the 57s because of the price break between them maybe if i could find a better deal on the pros but i doubt it.

 

ok so here is my best shot at ms paint lol

 

Don't get the 57-s pros!

jk.

 

i wasnt think about the pros just the normal ones, cause the 57s pros cost the same as the 57 pros, thoses rims look very cran on you car!

 

ok so some one did a quick chop for me and this is what they came up with, it looks pretty good.

 

ok so here is a little update... i know its no where neart done but i just want to keep the thread alive, anyways here are a few pics of the molded rear fenders, more pics to come soon...

 

Dont get the pro's! They are MY wheels!



Thanks bodyshop - you were my inspiration. Now i just need a 99 spec front and paint job like yours

 

This car is going to be SICK when it's done!!! I LOVE the photoshop of the wheels on your car. Def. keep this thread going with updates!

 

thanks, i cant wait for it to be done! they paint i ordered will be on my door step by thursday, hopefully the car will be done by next week end!

dont wory im not gonna get the pros, urs and body shop's car are really clean btw... if i had enough money for the 57s pros then i would just buy the 57 pros (5 spoke) if i do get the 57s they will be with out the polished lip since they are about 1k cheaper...

 

ok here is alittle progress...

drivers side ~90% done





passenger side 0% done just posted to giv an idea of what it looked like before.

 

not to bad preston..itrs coming along...hey do you mind if i stop by one day to check it out?

 

nope no prob ill send u my adress and u can map quest it.

 

+1 for 57Pros or 5 Spoke.
the 57 pros are my first choice of rim or the TE37 (6 spoke) but i could easily find somewhere else to spend $3k on my car then on rims and tires. you're too far into it, you need rims and tires though. but then again, it is an RX-7 and you should never settle. If you had your mind on the 57Pros, get the 57Pros. have you ever seen rotorboys Brilliant Black with Bronze 57Pros? its the stuff that dreams are made of!

it's lookin good. i cant wait to see how it comes out.

 

Man, that car's gonna be sick nasty dookie dumb (yes all of those are compliments) when it's all done. I'm starting a photo+detailing business, so let me know when you're done Preston, I'll offer my errmmhhhh...services...for a lower price.
