Hey guys.. I\'ve been a busy little boy tonight and fitted a new set of rear lights to the RX7. I know its probably frowned upon but i also bought some of those screw on tail pipes to go over the existing tail pipes as i was wanting the rolled ends look.. they fit perfect and i personally think they look amazing! The lights took quite a bit of modifing to the body to fit but i got there in the end.. managed to snap a little bit of the reg plate holder.. but its nothing major. These light are just incredible.. maybe not to everyones taste but i just think they make it look like a different car.. ive took some pictures to compare.. also the tail pipes weren\'t fitted until the end of the night so some pics have them on and some don\'t.. anyways i\'ll stop rambling on and post the pics!
Enjoy! :)

not a fan of the tail pipes. But now your car will look like a proper s5 :D
just get a redsuns sticker and your on your way!!
Me liking those :Giggle
Bloody hell dude.. i just checked your myspace.. you are built like a tank! haha.. awesome! I\'m glad you like the new look! :)
Kouki lights are much better :cool
Do I see the MS wheels fitted too?
what are these kouki lights you speak of?
:D
lol I thought they where the later spec ones!
Maybe not on closer inspection! ;)
Still, they look good :cool

why thankyou :eek: downside is cant get into some bucket seats as rear sides too tight !!!
Yeah i bet its tight! But what does it matter when you can paint yourself green and pretend to be the incredible hulk!!
Yeah dude, MS wheels.

Looks like a perfect fit! Suit the car very well I must say!
Did you have do anything to the fronts or did they fit ok? (sorry I know this was about your lights :o )
haha don\'t worry about it dude. Yeah they fit on with no modifications at all. Just need some new springs to bring them down a bit.. don\'t want it too low though as its already a low car. Once my car is up to the standard i want it to be i will take some full blown pictures.. I\'ve made quite a few changes now.. i would like to do the stuff to the engine that you are doing but i honestly wouldn\'t even know where to start.. :( I am very very very non car tech. I think fitting these lights is the most extreme thing i have done myself! haha..
Fitting things like that is where it all begins! :Giggle Im sure you will just get deeper and deeper :cheers
To think I nearly brought the same wheels off Andy - dam what was I thinking not to get them :spank
Whch MS wheels are they? I\'ve got some MS747\'s that I need to get repaired, wasn\'t sure if they would fit or not...
Good job on the lights too :)
They are MS01\'s :cool
MS747\'s? :3Confused
Looks good dude, get some full pictures up lets appreciate it as a whole car :cool From when you had it to now would be good.
Must remember next time i see Ricco make sure i keep an eye on my wheels :Giggle

You gotta sleep sometime! :evillaugh :evillaugh :evillaugh
If it is dry any days over the next few weeks i\'ll try get some pictures done. I really want the windows tinted and the suspension lowered before i show it off.. I was very lucky to get them from Andy. They are awesome.. they look great on the car..
Where the hell can i get centre caps for the alloys??
Best place to look would be the Japanese auctions. There are a few companies who will arrange everything on your behalf which will cost you more. 2 I can think of are Crescent and Rinkya.
Would have helped if I told you the address! :2Confused
Crescent :

Rinkya :

Any pictures handy my man?
(sorry for going off topic still! :o )

Brought them off of this guy :wave
very nice i like the new lights :Thumbsup!
As Ricco said those are your best bets i got my centres from crescent, just have to keep looking and they do turn up, but you can always mail them if there a ful set of wheels if theyll split the centre caps 9/10 if you offer a decent price they will split
kouki = facelifted ie S5
zenki = pre face lift ie S4

ah cheers for that
BBCFC - Cheers dude! :) . I think the car had a full respray before i got it.. unfortunately the sunroof has some bad rust.. :( . don\'t really know the best option for it.. Yeah took the wiper off a few weeks back.. funnily enough i didnt manage to get the full thing off until tonight when a friend came over with the correct tools!.. I done something VERY different to fill the hole in the glass.. i\'m just about to post some pics in a new thread..
