So far every mod I have is needed in my eyes. Except the last 3.
Tint - 180 - keeps sun from baking my interior
Greddy exhaust - 400
Clear corners - 70
Tien lowering springs - 400 with installation - kills that ugly wheel gap in the front
Front mudguards - 40 - keeps rocks from chipping up the bottom
LED marker and parking bulbs - 30
Blue caliper paint - 16
blue lugs - 15

Well, since no one here cares that there's an already existing thread on this subject, I guess I'll play along too.

How much was your Replica MS wing?

Wheels $2000
Tires $500
Tint $50
Exhaust $565
Brakes $700

there are no replica parts on my car. That's an authentic MS wing.

^ i knew that. I was just joking :lol:

just look at my Vb garage. ;)
give you a clue: well over $2k on just the sound system.

It is easy to spend $10k in mods. I am sure several on this board have spent at least $15k and some well over $20k.

I refuse to do the math on this, it'll be depressing.

Sorry for the triple posting but .... now I came to realized and Jedi came across a point... All mods done....nothing else to buy, After the 8's become old news what new FORUM/CAR/ADDICTION are we gonna move on to? :dunno:? If I can Ill get an RX3 and go old school with new school mix, like throwing in a FI (fuel injection) rotary turbo (RENESIS), RX8 seats, RX8 Gauges/Computer, pretty much swap all the crap in my 8 to my RX3...:)

I don't want 8s to become old news :(

not ballin, PIMPIN, west coast style :dubs: theres a lot of broken necks when this thing comes out 2 play.... everyones face looks like this---->:SHOCKED:+:aroused:+:Drooling_

hahahah noooiiice!

ok back on TOPIC....

just got my rx8 for about half an year and spent around 200 for clear corners and afe short shifter. Sucks that being a college student, budget is always tight and cant afford the mods I want!

On a side note: whats the lowest price you guys have found for the mazdaspeed spoiler?

i think ive seen around $400 on a few authentic. just keep checking the for sale section. I would defiantly get the real thing too. I can imagine a replica with "good" fitment would look horrid.

a new Authentic MS wing is over $800.
MSRP on them is about $1,050
