Anyone have good aero package photos?

The smallish photos in the brochure don't really make the differences from stock all that obvious, and unfortunately the aero package 8 at my local dealer was just purchased.

I can make out the side panels that make the splash guards non-installable, but the changes in the rear and the front air dam are less obvious in the photos I've seen.

Thanks in advance...

well i was given an 8 to drive for a week while the dealership found one w/everything i wanted. that one had no aeros, no spoiler & no cd changer and i immediately saw a difference in the styling when they brought mine 2 me @ my office and the 2 were side by side in the parking lot. also, the air dam on mine is better. when comparing, i think theres a big difference.

ok, tried to attach my pic. getting msg stating my file is 2 large.

Here's a good shot of the front of mine- should give you a good idea of what the front air dam does for you...

I meant to add that I've also added the front splash guards to my aero package, after seeing pics of Sea Ray's and others- I think they complete the front half of the kit better (and it helps keep salt/snow/mud from being whipped off the tires and down the sides as much. I need to get some more pics with them soon...

G8rboy,
I love those pics of your RX-8 every time I see them posted. It makes me want to go shine up the black one that I am currently driving. In fact, I think I will do that tonight so that it looks nice for the weekend. We had a bunch of rain this week so the 8 is looking a bit dirty.
