With the RX7 wing upgrades, I noticed the “Sarona - Sport Rear” Wing is only available as an upgrade on the Spirit R RX7 and not the '97. Ironically, this “Sarona” wing is actually the Mazda factory wing on the 93-95 RX7s. I was hoping to be able to install this wing on the '97 RX7 as it is the correct wing to match the rest of the body like the car in real life as those front and rear bumpers are correct for that wing from the factory. Mazda used the same body until '99 when the change happened to the front and rear bumpers that are on the Spirit R. I would think all the wings and body kits available for the Spirit R would be able to be applied to the '97 and vice-versa as it would be in real life. I love the game and I know it seems petty but the wing is the last piece I am missing to add to the car to build my real life RX7 so I was disappointed not to be able to have the Mazda factory wing on there. Not having a factory wing available triggers my “realism” OCD in these types of games.
I would think this logic should be applied to all vehicles that have the same body such as the different models of MKIV Supras. All MKIV Supras, S14 silvias, S13’s etc. should be able to use the same body upgrades since they are the same chassis.
Here is a picture of the factory wing in question on my personal car. This is the same as the “Sarona” wing available in FH5 as an upgrade on the Spirit R RX7 but not the '97 model. I think this should be available for both RX7 models and more so for the '97 since that is the correct wing for the earlier models in real life.

Can’t believe they didn’t notice this as this has annoyed me from fh4, mind you saying that I bet they can count on one cows hoof how many actual car enthusiasts work for them and I guarantee out of them they’re just supercar fan persons ( if indeed they identify as a person) so any Japanese cars don’t matter unless “is that a supra?”

From factory it came with one of either 2 spoilers (or without especially in the American market)
The efini type r1
Which in game is for some reason for the spirit R
And the efini type rb
And up until recently when they added the most disgusting widebody kits to the rx7 it came with only Forza aero or rocket bunny duck tail, ridiculous yet the spirit R has loads

They should just remodel the FDs and make all body mods (maybe apart from Widebodies) interchangeable.

Agreed since they all have the same frame and base body. All panels are interchangeable between series with FD RX7s. I’m really hoping they do the car enthusiasts right with Forza Motorsport but initially its not looking good from what I have seen.
Ironically enough, that lower picture you used is also the shop I bought my RX7 from
