New body kit for RX8

Anyone interest in this body kit? If we can get a minimum of 5 orders at once, I can get it at a very attractive price. Front bar with front fender $650, Side skirts $380, rear bar $480 and rear wing $480. PM me if you are interested.

How to completely ruin the lines of an RX-8

What does "Abflug" mean?
Suggestions other than "Absolutley Flugging Ugly" welcome

As for the painter - he's gotta be colour blind or something. That's not even close.

If I purchase this kit....

I will need to hire someone (like in Formula One) to put his hand inside and grap all the rubbish collected inside that.... THING. .

Not to mention prepare to receive all these NASTY (but all relevant) comments from the fellow RX-8 owners.

:D

The quad exhaust tips is the highlight of the whole car, everything else in the kit deserves to be donated to the nearest ricer for fitment on his Civic.

I kind of like the rear bar. if you drop the dumb quad exhaust, fill the holes and do a twin centre exhaust in the centre diffuser

you guys are mean. Did you ever consider the painter was colorblind? You shouldn't be harping on someone's disability. What would your mothers say?

as much as i like the quad exhaust, rotarenvy is right... a dual center exhaust (like the elise) would look real cool.

the front looks too sharp, and that spoiler wouldn't work for me. like the side skirts, they're pretty nice. yet this all seems a lil too much for my taste. good luck though

Can I take it Advan will have problems getting a minimum qty together for the group buy??

Cheers,
Hymee.

BTW - the whole car would be about 2' (60cm) longer!

I actually love the kit, the lines, the style is all me..........



.....OK I can't keep a straight face any longer....

...the kit is not up there in my top 5000.

Is it just me or does the front bumper add on not match the lines of the bonnet. The left and right edges stick out a little which would catch the wind at high speed.....however at high speed I think this kit would fly away.

Can I interest any of you in a new kit I am working on...I have developed it for the Hyundai Excell, but with some minor modification I think I can get it on the 8........let me know if you want to do a group buy.....Oh and Hymee you can stock it if you want cause I know it will be a hot item this year.

Great effort on your body kit , however be carefull not to infringe on Hymees patent as he already has designed a similar body kit TOGETHER with his new number plates for his pope mobil .LOL

Cheers

Come on guys... Abflug has made this an excellent body kit.

None of our cars are going to make the Fast and Furious 3, to be honest. I think this will have a chance only that it has to be yellow with 20 inch OZZY chrome wheel on. :o
