Talking Mazda RX7 FD Drifter

I just bought this Tamiya Efini RX7, I plan on making it a street drifter, but not a formula drifter. I'm modifying the front to make it look like that of the Apex RX7. With the foglight/ turnsignal combination as well. I also made a custom exhaust with angled tip, it looks real good fitted. Does anyone else have a finished RX7 they can show me pics of?

sketches

i drew up some sketches of my basic ideas on some paper during some of my college classes today. so here they are, basically: no spoiler/wing, nice body kit on front, no work to sides or back, better turnsignal / fog light combination and tail lights, nice exhaust, carbon fiber mirrors and hood and i duno what i'm doin for the interior yet probably 2 tone with some nice sparco torinos or pistas

New Pics

did some more work this weekend, its hard to work on the model when i live at school, luckily i go home every weekend. The pics include the almost finished front air dam, final smoothing is all it needs, the next pic shows the turn signal replacement with a turn signal/ fog light combination, the finished exhaust is the next pic, then the removed back seat and the roll bar! what do you think?
