They do about 3 for the FD that I know of.

Ben (inital-d) has an original wide body type 2 on his car, got it from Japan, think rotarytarts can get originals or make a copy.

Andy //www.powervehicles.com is next door to them so might be able to help.

Check out my blog for pics at different angles etc..

I do love the kit but the fiberglass used is very thin making it light but a touch too delicate for my liking!

Stuart put the kit on and painted, did a lovely job of it too I might add (Stu you owe me a fiver for that lol)!!

I have ideas for the back end of mine that will hopefully materialize for next year, keep an eye on my blog for it. RX-7s are a constant work work of progress as we all know!

I\'ll dig out my paperwork and let you know what I paid for the kit from my supplier in Japan.

cheers Initial D think thats made my mind up, blacks the only colour i like this kit in, was going for a white rex next but dont think the kit suits a white car.. priced up the kit and direct from kazama its around £1600-2000 range lol

Cost depends on whether you have it shipped in a container of by air which is expensive.
Black is THE colour and it keeps the batmobile theme lol!

Will 2nd that this kit is very thin - unpainted you can see light through it and doesn\'t take much to damage it - a few stones have made their way all the way though it and not got some unwanted cooling holes.

I\'ve got the kit 2 times from Kazama sent by air and boat (not full kit - Front, skirts and rear cost me £750 - without shipping!). Boat took ages and wished i\'d payed the bit extra to get it done by air. Air nearly cost me as much as the kit and wish i\'d chosen boat!!!! :S

My next step will be getting a copy made in the UK by Scratchies, when i can warrant a 4th front in 3 years (IIRC the copys are made thicker)
