to me the wing is perfect as length is spot on ad is roof height i may always change the arms later on.
I love the d1-gt kit 2nd favourite to the r magic wideboy. in the uk not many people modify th 8's as its harder to get fits and there is prob only a couple with that kit on, and no one has been brave enough to fit those width wheels on.
lol steering on wrong side, technically the left is wrong side! debating on engine mods at the mo.
debating atm about getting the HKS camp thingy and uprating the coil packs

Looks good v simular to what I have in mind, red and black!

in the Uk is a legal requirement to have head light washers if you have xnenon (sp) hedlights. so my shop will have to modify bumper

Hey I think you and I have the same taste but you beat me to the punch! I was also thinking about getting the CF Veilside hood and the spoiler. Very nice choice. I like Veiside too, but I have the Ver1 fron and rear lips and I also have the HKS Legamax too! That's funny! I'm going to get me the d1 sidskirts when I get back from this deployment. What do you think of the APR spoiler? Did your trunk have the stock RX8 spoiler on it before you added the new one?
