No, no, seriously, dont hold back :D Each to his own I guess. I love that spoiler.

Taka, I believe that it is adjustable, but it doesnt bother me if its not...its cosmetic

plans have changed (BIG ones too...), so will see whats happening in the near future.
i still think the 8 looks sexier without any wings/spoilers

to each to his own comment! (gees... i had one of those silver aluminium twin deck rear parking bench on my other mazda back in the days )

i'd say it "should" be adjustable, the jap should know better than that. the side plates should come off for you to adjust the blade angle

...sorry..maybe that was a little harsh!

Each to their own as you say...i'm sure it'd look ok from a different angle with a view of the whole car... i'd think you'd have to have the rest of your car pretty kitted up too though... and some big wheels!

Hope i didn't offend..

Nah! No offence taken (unless that was what was intended )

In its defence its actually no bigger than the OEM mazda spoiler just a little taler (1" I believe).

Affirmative. Just check my RX-8 accessory library.. it is a 3 angle adjustable spoiler... apparently it is similar to what they use for FD3S

Because...like...the car is...like...soooo powerful...you...like...need the extra downforce.

And of course we all have windtunnels in our backyard to be able to determine what setting it should be on for our trip up to the shops.
