front bumper looks like a mr2 bumper but it's real nice
hood is amazing ive been eyeing that one for a while to get it
My jaw is still on the floor from watching the video
Just shows how beautiful the rx-7 is and how lucky all of us are to have one.

You edited a very nice video that didn't look slapped together like some. Very proper.
I would imagine it takes a while to remove a spoiler that big. Tell him to look into the Feed spoiler.
Skunks, I don't mean to slight you but you are being a little too **** on picking this one apart. I like the complete objective approach you take but the dude's car is ******* tight. Who cares if his hat is backwards, you sound like your 50 years old or what-not.
Hehe I was just joking about the hat, sorry if I did not make it more clear
(BTW: I'm 23 haha)
The painted door handles add a pretty unique flair rarely seen. Those carbon/kevlar handles are just overused and seem more like what "every one else is doing".
I don't know about this man, the only true CF door handles I have seen have been made by mkoch1 which has been only on 2-3 cars (not sure how many he has actually made). I have also never seen them made with kevlar/carbon mix... (They soon will be though) BTW: The FEED ones are not real carbon, they are stickers hahahahaha (Ya gotta love the sticker tuning!)
The yellow dash was very well done and he probably is not tuning his own car anyway. If he is, it’s pretty evident you can't do it on the stock O2 sensor.
You would be surpised at how many people try/do to tune their cars with the stock O2 sensor!!!
Sorry Skunks, a cynic needs a cynic to reply sometimes. Can't let your comments go by without putting them in an objective light.
Whoa whoa whoa, who is being cynicical here, I'm just expressing what I like and don't like about his video/car, the topic is "My rx7 video, check it out, let me know what you think ", not check out my bad *** car and stfu if you don't like anything on it! I just figured that he wanted to know what I though of his car. Everyone is entitled to their own opinon. I never said his car looked like crap or anything like that, in fact, I like it.
BTW: I don't hear you jumping on everyone saying get rid of that spoiler!

Skunks, this is true, the title did ask for an opinion. I know your 23; I had to look in the profile to make sure. I'm 23 also, what a coincidence.
Yes, I didn't think of the "real" carbon fiber kevlar door handles, I honestly thought they were all knock-offs.
I realize you have an opinion skunks, I did not refute that. I was balancing what you said, that's all. It seems like you were rambling on, with no real point for the jabbering. What is poor soul to do, take your advice? and revamp his whole car, I don’t think you were helping him with his “video”. He did ask, "what do think of my VIDEO?". NOT his car. He is already en route to get rid of that wing. If that was an issue for you, I did say something about the wing in my first post.
Of course, I know what you mean. The video was obviously showcasing his car. Again, I didn't mean to slight you. Sorry for the misinterpretation. It’s all biscuits and gravy.

Hey Brad, first off, awesome video!! What mods do you all have to the car and what was that wire that crossed over your front strut tower bar? Oh and dont take these guys to heart when it comes to that Veilside wing, I heard that **** for a long time until I finally went back to the stock R1 wing, lol. Keep the videos rollin' man.
