it should be the passenger side thats smaller right?
alot of car companies used to do it, my dads mercedes from back in the day had it too, i believe the driver side is full sized so u dont get a blind spot, and the passenger sized is smaller cus it has the convex mirror so it can be smaller and show the same amount of area with smaller mirror...less mirror, less drag i guess...so they compromise on the size of the passenger side mirror...weight savings or less drag or somethin lol

As for the Curvy Amemiya on the Pink car.... those things are ugly and look like they weigh a good 20 lbs. I know everything Amemiya is like "GOD" to all the Rotor heads around here but I feel some of his designs actually ruin the FD. I don't like the way he installs Porsche front ends on the FD or how he changes the rear hatch with the one that has the round light pods on the outside... AGAIN... this is MY PERSONAL opinion... I like some of his items NOT all....

I agree, RE does make parts that totally ruin the FD.
No, I dont consider RE the "god" of rotary. But i give it to them, they have great marketing...
In any case, I really think their mirrors, along with the knight sports mirrors fit perfectly with the FD..
that is why I have a set of each and I am making a mold of each one.. in case i fucked them up; I have a back up... cause it was hell to find a decent set of each !!
PS: they do not weight 20 lbs ! LMFAO !!!
RE mirrors

Still slobbering over my new seats. I put in pretty strong red LED's in the dome lights. I always had this vision of just the red leather RZ seat covers floating in a black background. (Which is why I covered the carbon fiber RZ seat backs in black leather.) Anyway, here are a couple of pictures of the interior at night when the door is open. Its a bit like getting in a military jet...

Snapped a few pics at the tuner's today, although my camera sucks and it makes everything look skinny and tall, so the pics don't really do justice to the wide-ness. Ran into problems so we never actually got around to tuning, thus we never strapped it down.
And I already know about the gap between the hood and bumper, I've tried to a few things but nothing has worked yet.

Eventually, once I wash the car...that's why I was parked in the dark LOL. Not really, but I do plan on taking more pics with the new wheels and tires too.
What was photoshopped? The hood?

That is definitely one beautiful FD and pic. I wish we had more graffiti walls around here.

I've been meaning to post this for a while... While I'm a big fan of graffiti backgrounds, I feel like you've got to be really careful because they tend to overshadow the car. In most of the graffiti pictures I've seen posted recently, the RX7 is barely noticible because of the size and how busy the background is. The RX7 just fades into it. Not trying to cause a flap, just making a general observation. Other than that, it's great to see so many nice FDs.
