very interesting
I like the sides
any more pics of the rear

 

The blue is just beautiful.

 

Ditto. This is peeerfect. Hint of C6? maybe, but I am very willing to bet it was a nod to US crash standards (so no need for the black bar like on the current kit). I like the RB-like (probably RB input) side skirts too. The lack of view obstructing rear spoiler (lip spoiler instead) is another winner for me. The strakes gotta go. I've ALWAYS hated strakes. Just need to see a rear view now...

The Kenstyle Shinka... well I don't think the kit was by Mazda. Probably Kenstyle designed it. Their parts and AutoExe are sold at Mazda dealers in Japan. Personally I think they should have gone with AutoExe... their 1st kit is sharp on the car.

 

1st pic reminds me of the NSX
2nd pic reminds me of the vette

but nice nonetheless

 

B-E-A YOUUUUUUTEEFULLLLLLL!!!!!!! o my sweet heyzeus........
those wheels look like they came straight off an enzo.......c6? yes. kick ***? o my......

 

i love it personally. I would give my kit up for that in a second minus the side skirts lol. Slotted rotors too i see...

 

Too bad Mazda stopped making Lightning Yellows. That just means us Yellow owners are gonna get the shaft. Heck, I can't even get the current MS kit in yellow any more. I don't know if I should cry or be mad.

 

Let's face it people. At this rate, "Mazdaspeed RX-8" will always = bodykit and suspension modifications.

I don't think we're ever going to see a true "Mazdaspeed" RX-8 at this rate. The RX-8 is coming up on its third year and they still haven't revealed a single ounce of horsepower increase to the engine.

Let's just call it the "Mazdakit RX-8" from now on to avoid confusion.

 

Better Get Maaco!

 

Yeah really. I wonder what will happen if he gets in a fender bender? **** mazda doesn't make my yellow bumper any more, better write off the car.

 

Who the hell said anything about writing off my car?

A fender bender is not something anyone looks forward to or plans for (duh).

Getting a new front-end to change the look of your car is a planned expense and entirely optional.

If I opted for a new front, I would prefer a high quality part. Like Mazdaspeed. Since it's made in metton (or whatever it is) fits the car and comes PRE-PAINTED.

I can still by the MS part, sure...by I also have the added expense of painting it to match my car. An expense other color owner don't have to deal with. I'd rather not pay this extra expense if i didn't have to. Maybe your circumstance is different, but I'm not made of money. I'd like to keep what little I earn. So get off your high horse.

 

Metton is really the company name like kleenex or xerox but i like using the name instrread of "liquid molded resin" or whatever. any way good stuff much better than anything used in the aftermarket http://www.metton.com/

 

rofl
so true

 

I was thinking the same thing

 

Just noticed something on the blue car, looks like they butchered the new front fenders and put venting slits on them

 

Anyone else read about the one with hydrogen injection? Wonder if that might clean the exhaust up enough to allow them to back off on the cat. (eventually giving us a turbo)

 

welcome to yesterday

 

They have an electric turbo on the hydrogen car, and removal of the cat is sort of redundant as while you'll gain flow hydrogen makes about 85% joules of energy per unit as Gasoline does.

Gimme Gas or Death i put it which will eventually be appropriate

 

I guess you can say it looks like the C6 front-end, but come on, its a stretch...

 

Indeed it is a huge stretch. No wait, I think the light bulbs look the same!!!

OMG LAWSUIT!!

 

I have had a few people tell me that the 8 reminds them of the vette without this new MS8 being on the market. I think mostly its because of the overall shape of the body, from a sideview of course as well as the front. This new MS8 brings them even closer from what I've been reading here. All is well though.

 

No no, you mean the vette reminds some people of the 8. Chevy copied the 8, remember? :p

I like the blue 8. It would be badass if it ditched the wing, and if possble, the side skirts.

 

Those fenders are bada$$. I wonder if someone could make those fenders and sell them before mazda comes out with them, if mazda does come out with them.

 

is it just me or does the new MS Kit look like a*ss? I hope they dont stop production on the older version.

 

Just you, lol
