View Full Version : Kenstyle Kit Tayler 09-09-2006, 01:15 PM Don't think I've ever seen this posted so I figured I would share... http://www.mspr.co.jp/accessory/rx8/kenstyle/ new2me 09-09-2006, 02:30 PM there have been a few discussions about it on here, but a lot of people took a shit on it. i like it. i think the front end resembles the aston martins and how the back reminds u of the f430. just my take. Tayler 09-09-2006, 03:16 PM Yeah, kinda has that DB7 look to it. I'm not a fan of the canards but I think it would look pretty slick without them. Not a bad price for the kit either... I'm sold on the Knight Sports front bumper though, I WILL own that piece in the next 6 months... chrism 09-09-2006, 04:01 PM i know of one person on here that has the rear bit none have the front Tayler 09-09-2006, 04:05 PM Yeah I've seen a few pictures of Ngo's rear (why does that sound to forward?). I had seen the pictures of the bronzish looking car but the link above with the red car was new to me. Not sure if it's just the angle of the picture but something about it makes me like the front end a little more. Someone's bound to make the leap of faith one of these days... chrism 09-09-2006, 04:14 PM its all a matter of your taste....if you love it then get it....some people hate my car and some love it....i know i love it and its mine so i dont care.....just go for it Tayler 09-09-2006, 04:23 PM Oh it isn't about whether I like it or not. I'm not getting this kit, I'm going with Knight Sports. The rear is pretty sexy though... DaveCM203 09-09-2006, 04:31 PM I don't like the front. It does look like a DB7 to me also. the back...I don't think I like it either. I geuss I would have to see better pics of it or in person. Does anyone on here have picks with it on their car? Mazdaspeed RX8 ver2 09-09-2006, 05:21 PM i personally like the kit, the rear is really different compared to most and yet still keeps the rotary accent on the back. Thats the one thing that the mazdaspeed kit lost, was the rotary accents... anyways, i personally like it and its all on your taste. don't give a crap about what other people like, just what you like, its YOUR car and no one elses. if you get this though, kudos!!! i want it.... Ghost Trooper 09-09-2006, 05:26 PM ok, holy shit thats nice! Can someone pls translate that site? I think I found my body kit :D Ghost Trooper 09-09-2006, 05:35 PM nevermind, found the US dealer for it :) Danny 8 09-10-2006, 05:07 AM nevermind, found the US dealer for it :) who? Danny 8 09-10-2006, 05:08 AM i like the tail.. probaly the best tail in the world:D alnielsen 09-10-2006, 01:03 PM who? http://www.bulletproofautomotive.com/catalog-searchresult.php?category=133 new2me 09-10-2006, 01:10 PM has anyone checked to see how much shipping would be? Clavius 09-10-2006, 01:33 PM I kinda like it though I'm curious how far the front nose goes down. Like does it go down far enough to cover up that luvly 5mph bumper gaurd we have so the top half of the mouth isnt well "fake" and cause some annoying areo drag. That and it resembling a DB is a plus since I like some euro-styling. The rear though I dunno I like it but not in love with it, and the side skirts are 'eh so-so. Moostafa29 09-10-2006, 06:53 PM Front strongly resembles Ings+1. If anything else happens to my kit (God forbid), I'll more than likely buy that front. Tayler 09-10-2006, 07:39 PM After burrowing underground and staring at a language I can't understand I managed to come up with a few more pictures... Moostafa29 09-10-2006, 07:46 PM The grill is kinda weird looking. Clavius 09-10-2006, 10:07 PM Hmm.. starting to like the front more now. Though one the other websites pictures the grill seems to have some stainless steel inserts of some sort to make it stick out more but the pictures of the White 8 are pure black. hmm.. something to ask about when I get the $$$ for a bodykit. N rider89 09-12-2006, 01:49 AM i like those pics much more than the ones with the steel insterts NgoRX8 09-12-2006, 01:59 AM it does look better. if it curved more, i would like it. foo77 09-13-2006, 05:39 AM The grill is kinda weird looking. ^ +1 :) it would look better without the grill and the fog,just my opinion ;) NgoRX8 09-13-2006, 11:05 AM ^and i agree with this foo. :rofl: Jedi54 09-13-2006, 11:39 AM Ngo: this is what we need to do to your exhaust.... http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d37/Jedi54/ph_rx802.jpg NgoRX8 09-13-2006, 11:53 AM i will do that.. ;) as soon as i sell the rb and can shell out the rest of the money. XDEEDUBBX 09-13-2006, 02:22 PM yea, lets get rid of that ugly RB exhaust..haha Jedi54 09-13-2006, 02:24 PM does anyone make a dual tip exhaust like that or do we have to find someone to fabricate it? Ajax 09-13-2006, 04:19 PM does anyone make a dual tip exhaust like that or do we have to find someone to fabricate it?Autobahn makes 2 different versions of dual tip exhausts. XDEEDUBBX 09-13-2006, 04:49 PM do it do it! Jedi54 09-13-2006, 05:24 PM Ngo: you gotta DO IT! NgoRX8 09-13-2006, 07:52 PM actually, i will just be getting the kenstyle exhaust. i'd like to see how it sounds. haha. the thing is, if i fabricate my own, the inlet piping will have to be moved about two inches inward for quad tips to fit. my rb exhaust as you guys saw is pretty much nearer to the outter corner of the opening. takahashi j 09-13-2006, 10:37 PM The rear is really growin on me...any direct shots from the back other than the website? Functional diffuser or for show? new2me 09-14-2006, 01:50 PM u can always put these at the end http://i54.photobucket.com/albums/g114/dudeimbald/Turbo_Tail_05.jpg Japan8 09-21-2006, 06:53 AM does anyone make a dual tip exhaust like that or do we have to find someone to fabricate it? Kenstyle sells one to go with the kit. http://www.kenstyle.co.jp/info2.php?id=174 90,300 JPY though... ouch! More pics of the white car too... check the rear with the rotary accent instead of the fog lamp. BTW... the whole kit is FRP... fiberglass. And it is also sold at JDM Mazda dealers (as are AutoExe parts and kits). NgoRX8 09-21-2006, 10:54 AM yup, 90,300 + a crap load on shipping, customs, etc... i might get it. lol XDEEDUBBX 09-21-2006, 11:08 AM or you can go quad hks ti tips danny...you know what im talking about..hahha RENESIS_NEENJA 09-21-2006, 05:19 PM Don't think I've ever seen this posted so I figured I would share... http://www.mspr.co.jp/accessory/rx8/kenstyle/ I initially thought it was terrible.... but it looks much better here for some reason, maybe it's the angle, I dunno.. but much better than I thought before. Tayler 09-21-2006, 05:44 PM I couldn't stand the color in the first couple pictures I came across but the red and white suit the kit much better. Someone just needs to take the dive so we can get better pictures! new2me 09-21-2006, 05:53 PM ngo might. i am considering this one or the fabulous kit but it wouldnt be until after christmas when i decide. RotorMotor 10-03-2006, 04:31 PM The pics on the Bulletproof site and the pics on the white car here don't even look like the same kit. Looks terrible on the Bulletproof site but hot damn it looks sexy in white. Are we sure this is the identical nose? Tayler 10-03-2006, 05:25 PM I'll telling you, it's the color that makes all the difference. They are both the same kit, no doubt about it... time4akshun 10-03-2006, 05:33 PM Stock front Splitters look kinda cool. Looks like INGS/MS combo. Time RotorMotor 10-03-2006, 05:41 PM K, I'm getting one of our Photoshop guys to chop it up in Titanium so I can see it... Razz1 10-04-2006, 07:22 PM If you like it but it! Be different! Clavius 10-05-2006, 06:58 PM Talked to and shown several friends this kit and they all liked it, primarily because its different and they loved the front nose. I was contemplating buying a Audi before the 8 and was reading European Car and Euro-Tuner so European styling like this Kenstyle kit apeals to me. Now I just need to find a girlfriend who will buy it for me hehehehe... :rock: SSJ 909 10-05-2006, 11:19 PM I like the front, minus the lil piece that sticks out on the bottom ends. RotorMotor 10-06-2006, 11:07 AM I got tired of waiting for my buddy so I did this myself. I suck at Photoshop, but it gives me a good enough idea of what it would look like to know that I like it in grey. Will be ordering soon. :) http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a60/jbigelow/hjkmutktcopy.jpg Apostle 10-06-2006, 12:50 PM ^^^ i like it, looks clean. not sure about the fog though. like the back too... hmmm.... dtorre 10-06-2006, 05:16 PM omg everytime I see this kit I literally get the urge to throw up....aghh I really do have to throw up ShineAutoProject 10-13-2006, 03:21 PM I like the back. It's very sporty. It's also very similar to what they did for the G35 and is very popular. Im not sure about the rest of it :/ Mikeluvs8 10-13-2006, 11:40 PM i dont like it, btw what trunk spoiler is that? WreakLoosE 10-16-2006, 01:28 PM The front sort of looks like the ings front kit. I would like it without the splitters and the pimp my ride grill.. Other than that the front is not too bad. The back and sides are nice.. I would just leave out the funny red light.... lazi 10-16-2006, 06:18 PM everyone has there taste. but i think they shouldnt have brought it up showing on a brown rx8 with that kit. looks weird haha 1andonly 10-25-2006, 03:59 PM its a hit or miss u like it or you dont. i personally love the rear, the front is growning on my. It reminds me of a aston martin |
