I know I hate someone I just don't know who yet! :wallbash:

Seriously nice. Very understated elegance.

I can't wait to see it.

I wonder how this front looks like with the feed fenders.

Hopefully next week while on vacation I can install everything to show you.

what mirrors are those? do you sell them? and do you have any pics of the body work process? what do you do to the stock rear fenders? do you trim them after you intall the fender flares or is the rear fender under the flare stock?

thos mirrors seem to look like the feed ones. i want thos too

Mirrors = Gandor (look in the interior/exterior section)

I'll be waiting...haha!

Just got my 7 back from the body shop. The full kit with the carbon fiber hood from Shine.

Damn, who did your body work and paintjob? PM me who, and how much it cost please!

Those are FEED/ Ganador mirrors. You would have to purchase them from Japan. They are made of plastic.


Regarding the body work of the red car, I do no have any pics or info on the body work process. However, I do know that the body shop approached the transition of the front fenders to the bumper differently than KS-AUTO Burnout. Let me explain.

The red car has a smooth transition from fender to bumper. Alot of body work with bondo was done to create that look. The burnout car has an interrupted flow. The burnout fenders are made to fit with a stock size bumper, which is why it has such a sharp angle from out to in. The red can only use the bumper he has on his car with the body work done to it. Any other bumper would need body work :)

I like the original better.

But the red one is sweet

that red/maroon car is AMAZING

Actually, the outer half is plastic, the inner half is cast metal; aluminum I believe. There is a post in the Exterior/Interior subforum that I originally started, that has detailed pics and descriptions posted by myself and others of the original one, and the new version with LED turn signals built in. :)

Any idea how the full kit would work with a 99 front bumper? I need to use that due to cops giving tickets for no front plate. Has anyone done one like this? Pics?

Whats the widest front tire you can put on the front without it sticking out? I notice the black burnout demo car has 215's and it already sticks out abit? Thats just not acceptable! I do like the way it tapers back in to amplify the front fender buldge. Whats the max width tire on 18's I could run with this kit? I dont want to be able to see the tire from the rear or front of the car. As you can see I already have problems keeping 275's from sticking out :(

i have 255s and it doesnt stick out, i have r-magic wide front fenders though, it really depends on the offset...

Is it just me or I spy Kinesis wheels? K28's? Indeed offsets are what determine what can or cannot fit. If you look in the suspension/wheel section you will find 2 programs designed to tell what wheel/tire combo's fit. 18's can fit 285's up front with the proper offset/width.

On a side note don't use that car wash that I see in the background there, it just eats away at wax. I use it to clean my garage floor since I saw what it did the first time I used it.

Would 18 X 12 fit in the back with these rear fenders?

What tire size RISEN?

And what offset?

335

I would really like to stick some wider tires on the back and the Pettit fender can do that but it throws away the smoothness of the rX7

?

You're talking about mm's worth of clearance, if at all. With 18x10.5 +43, 285/30/18s, I have approximately a fingers width (sorry, haven't been down there with a digital caliper, but I guess 3/4") clearance with the stock trailing arms, and maybe another 1/2" to 3/4" from being completely flush with the fender flare. I've not corrected the excessive neg camber I picked up since lowering it (more), so kinda hard to measure for sure.

You could modify the flare to be wider; I'm doing the opposite (narrowing the flares slightly), since I don't plan on as wide a track as the flares might allow. Modifying the flare and using aftermarket trailing arms might work.

Hey Ken,
Sent you a PM, hope to hear back soon so I can get my hands on this kit :icon_tup:
