What side skirts should I get?

What sideskirts would look good on my car:

https://www.rx7club.com/showthread.p...hreadid=287050

it's the white car on the first post....

I'm thinking either RE-amemiya, or apex'i, does anyone have any other suggestions?

RE N1's, Feed CF ones, MS 15th aniv., or the Apex'i skirts. The RE N1 rears look good too

With your front end, I'd go RE-Amemiya.

Go with the Feed carbon fiber side skirts that go with that front bumper. But if you do that you would be copying me, so dont do it. Border racing (i think) also makes a cool fender/side skirt combo that looks nice.

Change where your buying it from then

FEED is one of the quicker ones for me IMHO, sometimes RE-Amemiya is a little off the ball sometimes, but not too bad...

well it's not even that...I don't know if the FEED sideskirts will go well with the type 2 bumper considering it was made to go with the type 2r kit with the front fenders and the rear fender kit. I was looking for sometihng more conservative or plain looking that will bring the sides lower to match the front, such as the apex'i or the RE sides or any other sides for that matter that are clean looking

Something roundish would be nice, but not too round since the Type II isnt all round only like the Type IIR.

The FEED sideskirts where out before the TYPE IIR bumper was...

The older style RE-Amemiya skirts would look good, or the apexi ones, or even the originals (USED)

1FooknTiteFD,

I've seen a similar combo (in person) of a front like that with the older Knight Sports/Racing Beat side skirts which looked really good together. RE-A also has (had) skirts very similar:



The car I saw also used the Veilside rear skirts (everything molded). I wouldn't necessarily to that route with the rear but the rest looks really good. IMO, since the front extends out to the sides of the car a little bit, you would want your skirts to do the same.

Good luck!

I don't see why he wouldn't want replica parts; everything from Rotary Extreme is cheaper and fits perfectly (at least from what i've heard and seen) and it's certainly much cheaper than ordering it from a importer of original parts

I guess if you want original parts go with the RE-Amemiya sideskirts:

thanks NukeGenius . azechi reiko - search her online .and as for the side skirts, I think FEED cf add ons would be easiest to deal with, and look the cleanest. if u want that CF look.

I agree. I was talking about the CF add ons when I said go with feed sideskirts. But that would mean he would be copying me, so dont do that.

Those look like the OEM skirts. The Apexi are in the picture above.
