I don't think they ever did and those prices are not too much better than authentic when it goes on sale. I think that is around September every year.

They do make the front bumper at least. I emailed them a month or so ago inquiring and I live in so cal and was willing to pickup local to avoid shipping and the said that was ok. I ended up not buying it but it was available. Not sure about the rear bumper or side skirts.

No they do not. Here is their web site: http://www.shineautoproject.com/
Check their RX8 forum for their current offerings. They have an other body kit, for the 8 right now, in the prototype phase.

from what i've heard from everybody that has dealt with them - they've been nothing but cooperative. Tho i'm a lil' disheartened that this kit was never replicated, i'm a lil' more glad

I don't normally weigh on these things, however, this one, I will. Most of ya'll know I have the authentic kit, and there were NO issues with fitment, just the body shop I chose. I've spoken to other authentic rx8 vertex owners and the only problem they have had was maybe the holes needed to be drilled out a bit. Mine is FRP, flexible, and very lightweight, but not brittle in the least.

Shine, I am sure your products are awesome, but there is an old saying......you get what you pay for. In doing the math, I spent about 500.00 more than what you are offering, if that much, and that included the canards as well as shipping. Vertex is in Cali, and if they have a full kit in stock, the delivery time is nothing.

Shine isn't offering it. This was started about 2 or 3 yrs ago and it hasn't progressed anywhere. Shine can't even get the Feed replica out the door.
I don't know why this thread is getting any action.
