Just saw this RX-7 episode of Wheeler Dealers for the first time tonight (I think it’s like two years old or so). They made it snakeskin. What. The. Fuck. I usually enjoy their builds, but this one is just making me cringe.

Kinja'd!!!

I’m sorry poor FD. You did nothing to deserve that. I hope you’re in a better place and sans the graphics now-a-days.

Your opinion is bad and you should feel bad.

Snakeskin is awesome. There’s not much in this world better. This does not look like snakeskin.

That paint job is way too 80s for that car and that front end is just terrible.

Unless the car is painted yellow and it comes with a typical Mazdaspeed spoiler.

The snakeskin was just a wrap, so you can peel it off easy enough.

anytime they break out the vinyl wrap on WD they ruin the car

Maybe a british OPPO can verify this for me, but from what i’ve seen of the “tuner crowd” in great britain, it seems like they thought fast & furious was a documentary, and all the graphics and wild colors were the norm

I don’t know. The only part I didn’t like are the wheels, the rest i would have been ok with.

True enough. But that water transfer stuff on the wheels and mirrors and spoiler seems like it’d be much more difficult to remove.

Agreed. From a lot of stuff I’ve seen from over there, they do like their rice.

I like it....for a track day car. I wouldn’t want to be seen round town in that though. I do love the front clip. They didn’t put that on there, it came on the car when they bought it.

The original owner was selling because it had issues. You could tell the kid never had used a screw driver before. In the end (spoiler) they sell it back to the same kid. Poor car.
