SICK Blue RX8. Aus 1st Rmagic (FUll Type) RX8. congratz Andrew =)

The Front hole was customized,a Plastic V-shaped Air vent is moulded one-piece
unto the front bumper,and 90 deg adaptor is used to link it straight to the air intake piping.
Why is the intake hole on the left not the Right, Andrew knows it technically.

I'd like to point out that both James and I are too insane for either tweedledum or tweedledee ...

... which is the reason why he's definately the mad hatter, and I'm most probably the march hare!

Anyone for some tea?

Willie, no big plans yet as money is a bit tight now. But I still need those extra wide seats and would like to get lightened flywheel.

This thread needs more pics.

BTW, pardon my ignorance of add-on related knowledge but is the rear spoiler R-Magic or a Mazda item?

That is **** hot Andrew. Looks fantastic. I'm not a big fan of body kits, but yours looks great.

A challenger to yellowrx8inoz at the next Nats.

Well done.

Thanks Kall. Goes so well with the rest of the kit I thought I should ask.

Personally, I think the side skirts and rear bumper treatment are better than the MS kit but I still prefer the MS nose. That would be a good combo IMHO.

Yes, I understand the problem. Mind you, the MA turbo cars had the MS nose without any skirts and they looked pretty good to me. I quite like keeping the flanks minimalist, so as not to add bulk. The R Magic skirts seem to offer the best compromise because the taper reduces the effect of adding bulk down low.

From time to time I've thought about the whole kit thing but have decided it's not worth the cost and hassle (for me!). I know I'd wreck the nose and skirts and I don't think 18's are big enough with a kit anyway, which means new rims too.

So, although I like looking at 'em, I think that's what I'll remain doing - looking.
