Aoshima makes a Veilside RX-7, pretty much every thing about it looks like the RX-7.
decals must be found some where else.

there is a 1:18 F and F RX-7, its diecast though

It had generally been decided on this forum that to build it, you'd be best off starting w/ the Aoshima Veilside kit, like supratuner said, adding the lights from the C-West kit, and commissioning the decals from scratch...

Though... why do I rememebr hearing about a Dom's RX-7 from one of the Japanese makers...? Was that a premature name for the Bomex kit?

Basically you need clear plastic card for the front headlight, Veilside RX-7 Combat2 kit, Fujimi Veilside Andrew Racing F wheel set to complete the FnF RX-7.:rolleyes:

As for the decals, you have to do yourself.

I did this kit a loooong time ago... I'll get pics up tomorrow as its 11:20 here. Mine was done as everyone was saying but wihout the headlights. At the time of my build, i didnt know of the c-west? RX-7 or there was a kit that was just the headlights, buti cant remember where it was. The decals i have are paintbrush(comp. prog.) hand drawn. THe only prob is my first decals didnt turn out very well...im still waiting on white paper and sealer. My kit as a whole caost about 65$. I bought the rims separate from HLJ, the RX-7, a can of sunrise red(very close match to actual red), and custom built the sub setup in the rear of the car. As i said, sorry to post without pics. If you search for my name, you might be able to find my progress thead. Good luckl if you plan to build one. Check back tomorrow.

Its only the main decals...you should be able to just print them without resizing. Hope this helps someone elses RX-7 get finished, cause i know ill be waiting for mine to be done for a loong time.
