I'd say it's still one of the best kits when it comes to the styling. I just don't know how they could design such a great front and leave the rest of the car completely untouched (apart from stealing the back bumper, of course). I'll never understand it I guess... -- Last edit: 2018-08-15 18:04:48

Removing rear bumper does in multiple occasions. Also design is Yin and yang. Sometimes keeping something as is or removing it is what is needed. An over the top all around would give you something like some of velside or fab design bodykits while velside manages to do some nice ones....fab design are god awful. You have your opinion cant really argue with that.This isnt exactly new in car culture... just look at drift missiles and rat rods...and more styles.(that tend to remove more than rear..)

Zordid 2018-08-15 14:45	Well, have you ever seen a 70's muscle car (this kit tries to mimic those) with most of its back body feature missing and internal bodywork exposed? If you would have you'd probably agree that it looks awful and ruins the car. Granted, this kit most likely wasn't developed for fans of 70's muscle cars but it's ugly nevertheless. If it was about balance, both sides would have to be the same (level of 'over the top'). "So simplistic back is needed for car to maintain its identity" I'm not aware of any stock RX7ses that sold without a back bumper.
speedfreak975 2018-08-14 23:59	Yup thats the one I think its better than almost normal rear bumper on this one. Design is about balance and the front is over the top. So simplistic back is needed for car to maintain its identity (or lack of it ) Similarly to Pandem boss RX7 with RX3 inspired front -- Last edit: 2018-08-15 00:01:22

Zordid 2018-08-14 21:04	Yeah, I don't know what they thought when they 'designed' the back
Speedevil 2018-08-14 18:08	I have to say the Rocket Bunny v2 front fascia looks great. It's just a shame that it doesn't fit the rest of the bodykit...
Zordid 2018-08-14 16:45	Is that a Datsun badge on the grill? Oh my god...
