That looks really sharp! You do the 8 great! Damn, I wish I may I wish I might have the wish I wish tonight.

I'm surprised you haven't had anyone respond about the lip spoiler offer yet. They are a rare commodity over here.

By the way, check out my avatar. That would look nice on your 8.

If only... if only I had my 8 now... I'd take the lip spoiler to go with a MS kit. If only... *sigh*

I imagine if the price is right... Brother Voodoo would be VERY interested.

Djmano - no probs about the cost, was VERY suprised no one has said anything yet.
One of the big costs was the carrier and insurance charge was around $1000 USD. The only Mazda dealer that does this kit in the UK was asking almost $9000 USD, so as a comparison I have saved ALOT of money. But yes it is expensive.

D-Menac 7 - Like the sticker, very good. So you selling these then?

If anyone is interested in the parts left over then by all means drop me a PM as I have not yet decided what I am going to do with them.
Front Bumper
Rear Fog Light
Rear Spoiler Lip

i think what people want to find out is if the spoiler and body kit affect the handeling or aerodynamics of the car tru grease heads like myself aren't always interested in bodykits b/c they look good spoilers and wings sometimes help handeling at high speeds. so has n e one noticed a difference i would also like ot know

Not being funny, but how long is a piece of string. Depends on who is fitting, what you are having fitted, to what standard etc.
I did not have the wing mirrors fitted and that add alot to the cost as very fiddly to do.
I believe it takes around 16-20 hours fitting time, so worth checking what the hourly rate is of your fitters.
