Just wanna know what you guys think of the mirror placement on my RX7.
I cant decide if i like it or not. Got the idea from the Amemiya cars...

Also, if I decide to leave it, should i just use some putty to fill the stock placement holes?

I like them more in their stock position.

If the mirrors were a little smaller and sleeker I think it would pull off a lot better, not bad though. I would have to see it primered or sprayed to know for sure.

Ditto. Especially considering the current placement puts the drivers line of site to the mirror right through the A-pillar.

i like it but i would go for different mirrors, the stock ones should be kept in their original position i feel!

thanks for the suggestions! I will move them up a bit I think. i dont have any other mirrors (all i have are GTR kits, and the mirrors dont jive) so I guess i cant use others.

I forgot to ask too, any color suggestions? I was thinking either white with the gold MS-01 rims or Black with the advan model 5s... i dont know.

I like them better like that! Thats the Fujimi Mazdaspeed RX-7 huh? I wish i did a better job on mine. I didn't even paint the body. Brings back memories of my early model years.

no need to be so blunt.

i think with some smaller racing style mirrors, it would look awesome. the stock ones are just a bit too bulky! it reminds me of the early '70s Skylines that i lust after so very much...
