fiiiinaallly own my first RX-7!!! any arkansas fd owners besides me?

i finally became an FD owner as of a few days ago, i started working at a mazda dealership about a month ago and last saturday a couple drove up on the lot, and were ready to trade their 93 FD in for one of our new CX9s.

Luckily, i was the person to get to them first! after trading in the car, i bought it that monday for 8600!

it's a 93 FD, 79k miles and in near perfect condition.

i have one problem though...my left headlight cover came off while i was going down the interstate at night and i wasnt able to find it. Does anyone have any spare headlight covers they would be willing to donate or let me buy off them? preferably RED!

I'm in Arkansas too, Jonesboro.
I got my '88 convertible last month, my first RX7 as well.

Just getting to know this board (this is my first post).
I was wondering if there were any other Arkansans here too!

Wow, that is a CLEAN engine! Looks like your car is in great shape.

I haven't been to Little Rock since I moved back to Jonesboro from Conway about 9 years ago. I'm hoping to find a few more rx7 owners around here.
Oh, I hope you can find a headlight cover, that's a bummer!

Haha I have no idea if it happens a lot. I haven't really seen anyone post r say much of it happening. The right cover came off while the previous owner had lol.

Maybe it's just my car!
