Wow, this thread is pretty much exactly one year old. I am doubtful anyone here would be willing to fork out the $$$ for the r-magic widebody. It is, indeed, beautiful though!

Those are the 6pots, pretty massive,,,
You guys should go back and read the thread with this car in it, he wasnt too happy that his car was still getting spanked by porsche turbos,,, He thought that a turbo would have been enough to beat the world...

japanparts.com? That thing runs 5k+ though so be prepared to spend some serious cash if you really want it.

And then getting the kit fitted and painted. Looking about 9k-10k when you are all done.

still cheaper than this thing, these kits start at 15k I think, good thing failside doesn't make a Fortune kit for the 8 as it would probably cost more than the car

Haha ya the Veilside Fortune for the rx7 is crazy expensive, but you have to consider it is like a 16 piece kit that completly transforms the look of the 7. Its defeintly sexy!

Ya I knew it was around 5k just for the kit, and i figured another 2k for fitment and paint. Wasnt expecting 2k just to ship it tho??? DAMN. Prolly not worth it but i defiently like it! gives our car a really agressive look. Only thing im not big on is the rear, wonder if theres another bumper like the kenstyle you could manage to fit up with the rear quarters???

Still not sure where you guys think you would be able to pick it up for $5K, when all said and done(buying, taxes, shipping, fitment, paint) your probably looking at somewhere around $15K japanparts - http://japanparts.com/db/parts_detai...&SEARCH_page=7

theres someone who makes a pretty good replica on ebay. [i know theres a ton of useless crap there] but in this case, if you look at the prepainted kit test fitted, it looks pretty good.

its around 5k shipped, via sea
