any *ATTRACTIVE* body kits/custom hoods for 1rst gen??
Can anyone recommend any attractive body kits and custom hoods for a 79 rx-7? The ones that I have seen are either ugly or look dated.

I just picked up some side skirts, rear wrap around spoiler and rear skirting from the wreckors for $150 aus. I already have an Rx-7 bonnet scoop on the hood which was $60 aus. I will post some pics as soon as i have it put on.
You can kinda see the bonnet scoop in this photo

The side mirrors on Magnus car are stock electric mirrors, I have the same. Well, I had, as I swapped for US-ones recently. The ones one Magnus car are European ones as far as I know.

Yes, they are electric.. it's the Mazda stock mirrors.
I know that all rx7's sold in sweden (83-85) had thoses... mine are not working as all my electics are from an 84 car without powermirrors..
I have a pair just like these painted in H1 (sparkling black) if anyone is intresseted.. but remember... I live in Sweden.

Magnus, as far as I now, all the cars came with complete wiring, so it should be rather plug and play... Even if the '84 didn't have the wiring it's not that difficult. I'm getting working ones as soon as my car's out of the paintshop (can't wait to finally see the results!), as the ones I have on there aren't working either. The builder cut the wires of!!! So I have pair of those like on your car extra too. I got US ones now.
BTW US mirrors are actually not allowed in Europe, as they are solid mounted, where as the EU versions are flexible. When hit they flip inside, against the sidescreens.

The same one that is on my car. It looks a lot better body color than it does black.
I had mine blue originally, but it wasn't the same shade as my car, so I changed it to flat black.
