Thumbs up

Very nice, indeed. Tell me, though, that the hood fits better than in the second picture...

Looks nice, but I noticed the hood as well. It also kind of looks like the paint job on the bumper isn't a great match. I really like the kit a lot though (except the rear hatch). Sounds like it's got some good power to match the looks too.

Well here goes nothing, let the bashing begin! j/k


Real good job. Just a few pointers.

The hood. That is mostly from the stick used to hold it up. Now the hoods distorted from it. I had that problem with a truck I had. Body shop would do the job nicely and it's not costly at all.

Now, as for the rims. My thinking on this is, if you are a goer or racer, lose the chrome. I leave chrome to the posers. Just not practical on a racer. Some Enkei, Focals, anything but chrome. Silver or polished aluminum will definitely add to the appearance of that car. It looks tight. Not bad for an MR2. I don't see many of them, and the ones I do, usually aren't hooked up nice.

Nice car!

Just My Opinion (No Offense intended)

Get rid of the gaudy tail and nose. Replace it with the stock parts, or something with a slightly aggressive look. Can we say would you like a little car with your tail sir. j/k

The chrome wheel look okay to me. I don't know why you can't have chrome if your a racer type? Hmm. Anyway I think the intake add, and the side skirts look cool.

I'm just the type that likes to looks stock to attract you, then kick your a$$ with what I put under my hood. Over all the car is pretty cool looking. You'd definitely, attract me to race you with your look.

BTW, Whats wrong with chrome? It looks good on mine.

Bless your heart. Sleepers rule! Though even a stock RX-7 is hardly a sleeper...

I do have trouble keeping up with those dang torque monster vipers. But seriously, nothing from the norm. This is my second 3rd Gen, and the turbos went out on me. But the trusty warranty covered it. If you buy, just make sure to check it out first. Compression test is the most important.
