Here is an incredible build which is still on going. Originally painted by the world famous ‘Paintbox’ around three to four years ago (who are associated with some of the best aircooled vw’s and customs in the world), ‘The Striper’ known for his intricate pin striping work hand painted the flowers painted around the RX7 – even in areas you can’t see without getting on your hands and knees. The paint job is an indepth process itself. House of Kolor Oriental Blue Kandy over Rosetta Red Pearl over blue metallic base which was painted over a black sealer. The body is fitted and blended with an RE-Amemiya AD GT wide arch kit with AD-Facer N-1 bumper and carbon fibre bonnet, which also had around ten coats of clear with the bodys blue paintwork. Going into the engine bay (which is still to house the powerplant) a smoohed bay with intricate details further shows off the stunning paintjob. Everything you see is either House of Kolor Kandy, metalflake or pearl. The suspension components and brake setup is a total work of art. Underneath is just as exceptional as on top. With the pink, gold, carbon fibre and flower theme running throughout the entire vehicle. The interior is yet to be completed. A multi stage machine polishing process was carried out to remove hazing from moisture from an old car cover and minor to moderate swirl marks. Only one coating was in my eyes to grace the paint – Kamikaze Collection’s flagship certified only two stage Enrei Coat offering unrivalled durability, looks and further adds to the brightness of this RX7. The engine bay and supension components were protected with Kamikaze Collection Overcoat. Wheels, calipers and tyres were protected with Gyeon products inside and out. The result being an extremely intense gloss and glow from the detail with an absolute stellar piece of art on wheels being protected.
