<P> The scene featuring Brian jumping off a bus off a cliff was performed by a stuntman and was all done without any computer graphics . The shooting for this particular sequence along with the scene in which Dom and his team are pursuing to rescue Ramsey almost didn't happen due to the absence of tax break in Colorado . The studio originally wanted to shoot the sequence in Georgia which provides tax breaks for film productions, and then they'd add woods in the background later in post production to which Razatos denied saying, "the audience is going to know (it's CGI) and aren't going to feel good about it ." Shooting finally took place in Colorado . </P> <P> A total of 340 cars were used in the film, and more than 230 cars were destroyed in the making of the film, including several black Mercedes - Benzes, a Ford Crown Victoria, and a Mitsubishi Montero . The film featured the most expensive car destroyed in the franchise so far: a Lykan HyperSport by W Motors, valued at $3.4 million . The mountain - highway chase scene on Colorado's Monarch Pass proved to be the most damaging sequence with over 40 vehicles being destroyed . Only 10 percent of the action sequences in the film were computer - generated, and even then, much of the CGI was employed simply to erase the wires and other contraptions that were used to film real cars and drivers or to add a background . It took more than 3,500 man - days to complete the various stunts of the film . For safety reasons, stunt coordinator, Joel Kramer said that he doesn't let his drivers go above 50 miles per hour . </P> <P> In January 2014, Time reported that Walker's character, Brian O'Conner, would be retired instead of killed, and that new scenes would be developed in order to allow the franchise to continue without him . To recreate Walker's likeness, the filmmakers hired Peter Jackson's Weta Digital visual effects house (which had previously produced the imagery of Gollum in The Lord of the Rings franchise and Caesar in Dawn of the Planet of the Apes). Initially, what Weta could do was severely constrained by the quality of the reference materials available for Walker's physical appearance . In April 2014, it was reported that Walker's brothers Caleb and Cody had been hired as stand - ins . Their cooperation, along with their strong resemblance to their late brother, enabled the filmmakers to use Walker's likeness throughout the finished film . That is, Weta Digital no longer needed to recreate Walker's entire body from scratch, and could focus on accurately modeling his face . The final film showed Walker's face superimposed over the bodies of his brothers or actor John Brotherton in 350 visual effects shots . 260 used a computer - generated face, while 90 repurposed actual footage of Walker's face borrowed from outtakes or older footage . </P> <P> The musical score was composed by Brian Tyler, who scored the third, fourth, and fifth installments of the series . "There's an emotional component to Fast & Furious 7 that is unique", said Tyler about his experience scoring . "I think people are really going to be amazed by it ." A soundtrack album to the film was released by Atlantic Records on March 17, 2015 . </P>
