I think that a 2nd gen 7 would look good with a pair of those. I am sick of seeing Acuras, Hondas, and Neons running around with Altezza taillights. And for $220 a pair that isn't that bad. I'll think about getting them. That's why I was asking if anyone owned them. I wanted to see if they liked them.

There isn't **** out there in the way of taillights, hoods and body kits for the 7s. But there is tons of that **** for hondas and acuras, and here in Seattle thats all you see.

yeah, it's the same way here in san antonio, bunch of wanna be show cars.... for now I'm going to leave my 7 looking completly stock with very few stickers on it as well, it's alot more fun to have someone challenge you thinking you have a close to stock car, then you take their sack lunch and hand them their *** on a silver platter :newlaugh: the only sticker going on my car is the haltech sticker, seems how I payed $1,430 for it



but a friend of mine had some rounds on his 88 N/A and it actually did look pretty good...

:0 those are kinda cool. Does anyone have a pic with them on their car or a 7. but i just spent like 275 for my pair of round taillights and they are a little too ricey for me.
Try getting in touch with the guy who makes them. I'm sure he'd be glad to send you some pictures: psychodad1313@hotmail.com . You think rounds are ricey?
No no no, :newlaugh: I love my round ones, do think i would pay $ for rice???? I think the red/white taillights are ricey.
Ok, just making sure.

I knew a guy who made clear taillights for his RX-7 and they loooked pretty nice. The ones you showed me look better.

Not nearly the selection there is for hondas though. And most of the good looking body kits for the FC are like $1000 just for the front bumper. Although I do like the corksport front bumper, plus it is only $400



But I like this one better....



Damn I need $2000. The Bomex kit looked pretty good too, and it isn't too expensive I think its like $430



Hey Bomex got their 7 painted, and all the prices for their kit... It looks pretty damn good too. $1150 for the whole kit, not bad!







Here is a link to Bomex...... http://www.bomexaero.com/bomexusa.html

The nice kits made for FC's may be alot, but they'll usually fit very well because the quality is excellent. Corksport has been coming out with alot of cool replica parts. Alot of those honda kits etc. are crap. I like the R-Magic front end:

I like that hood! Too bad that front end costs a **** load. I'd love it on my car, but for the price of that bumper I could have the whole bomex set up, and $ left over. Oh well I'm not going to put a body jit on untill my car is at least running 14s. No point in looking fast if you can't back it up. I've killed many hondas that were sporting body kits and 4 foot tall wings, you know their $ didn't go under the hood. Have you taken your vert to the track? What kind of ETs are you running with it? I'm going to be doing a TII swap next year, so I'm just curious what I'll be able to do.
