IL To All 3rd Gen Owners in Illinois.

I live just outside Peoria, IL, in a town called Morton (61550).

The reason Im posting is that I need some help. As some of you have read i have been working on a new Sleek headlight kit for the 3rd Gen RX 7. I started last year however lost my 7 and have recently run into some financial issues recently. So it is looking like it will be a while before i can afford a new one.

So here's the deal if some one is willing to allow me to use their 7 to mock up the light I will offer you the first production set (labeled as such) for free.

I assure you that I will take the utmost precautions treating it as my own while mocking it up.

I estimate approximately 2 weeks for mock up and 2-3 months for production.

feel free to ask any questions concerning this project.

To check out my progress Click Here, just a heads up the majority of the progress and useful info is around page 4.

also unless i get a number of people saying they like the "Ferrari" design I will be going with the C6 look.

Pretty cool project. What are you using for the lights themselves? Always was interested in something like this for my FB, and the wife's FC. No FD though, so cant help you there.
