that was very very very cheep. mine is going in fir a respray at the end of this month, im having all the door shuts done etc. im stripping the car my self although there getting the glass taken out,
There are performance cars and then there is the RX-7...........

12.3 second 1/4 mile, terminal speed of 122mph (1st ever drag run on a TO4R)

engine built by....... umm me! now powered by a T51 Kai......

if u look in the 3rd pic,cant really c it though,the window ruber iv cut it,its only the 5mm or so that goes on the window side.,
for the back window thay hav this wire lookin thing that goes under the ruber n lifts it of the paint,

scary aint the word 4 it,got 4 boxs of bits n bobs,
didnt mark the boxs jus put all the screws bolts n plastics in the nearest box,rushin c,spent half the day sortin it all out,

I am also planning to have a full respray. What would you say is \'average\' for a price.

So far I have been quoted £900 to £3000. I am sure there would be differences is workmanship between a pro vs a back alley job but I am looking to have it done properly within a reasonable budget. £3g seems a bit steep!

What colour was your car to start?

£600 is very reasonable IMO, I\'ll be respraying my rex myself prob around march when it gets warmer :)
