Wide Body RX-7

Dying Fetus · 05-09-2007, 12:58 AM

I just finished looking at aeandae's Veilside Fortune RX-7 and was totally inspired! What amazing attention to detail and skill!!!!

So I decided to change around what I was going to do on my RX-7. I was originally going to put a Blitz style body kit and do a few other small things.

But after seeing aeandae's RX-7 I decided to do a wide body. I'm going to take a few ideas from the Veilside kit and change it around just to be different. I'll most likely scrap the Blitz kit and do a completely different front and back bumpers.

This is what I was doing before:

Starting the wide body:

Here is an update of the hood, just letting the putty dry, then some sanding.

Looking good man. The hood is turning out great. Not a big fan of the Blitz style front, but thats just me. Cant wait to see some body work.

Yeah I'm not doing the Blitz kit anymore, I usaully HATE it, especially on 2nd gen Eclipse/Talons!!! But I thought it looked ok on the RX-7, but I've decided to do something else for the front end now. If you have any pics of some ideas post them up!

Heres some ideas for the front. I personally like th first two the best... especially the gold one.

and thses two pics are of the same

ok here is an update of the tail lights and the side, I'm not sure if I should take a bit out of the side skirts (part drawn in with pencil) or should I just leave it the full width?

Dying Fetus · 05-19-2007, 06:22 PM

Here are a few more of the start of the back end.

Here is an update of the front & back end.

I decided to make the vents in the back bumper thinner, they were looking a bit too bulky. The picture shows the difference in size.

Let me know what you think.

rod_k2 · 05-20-2007, 06:13 PM

Sort of...Mmmm...Exotic,but I like it!!

Sliming down the rear end looks much better! The saying "less is more" is often true. Looking good!
