Way over the top for me. But I love seeing mods like this that take the 8 to the edge. Nice work and welcome aboard.

i actually love the car. the wing might be a little too extreme, but whatever floats your boat. maybe think about lowering ur car a lil bit more???

no it dosen't the cars in that game look ******* stupid and if you own that game you need to sell that **** quick car looks awesome bro and if the wing works leave it looks like the FEED RX8 kit just tune the suspension and add some power parts and you got something that would destroy most cars on turns i guess a lot people would think the RE rx8 or the Feed car looks bad with the wing but it works.

Good Job on everything else !

You need to chill out man . Everyone has their own opinion. State you're point without bashing anyone else. We do understand that the purpose of the wing is to ride above the roof of the car for performance purposes. It just doesn't look good.

Having a car that's sponsored by some company with all the gear (ie RE Kit or FEED kit) is different than going out and doing it yourself to your car. First of all the sponsored car is a likely a show car that's a rolling advertisement. They WANT people to look/gawk and buy their products. When you do that to your own car, you are getting the looks but maybe not in the good way (the same look that says "Are you from 2 fast 2 furious?").

You asked dude.......now pick yourself up off of the bed, go to the garage, grab a hacksaw and cut that cancer off of the back. Unless of course it has providing a study flow of trim; in that case uh..where did you say you got that thing?

Im sorri to say that in this forum nobody likes big spoilers...i just happen to be one of them outkasts...maybe im into the JGTC look. but whatever you wanna call it that wing is TIGHT...its the only wing i can get that will match my bodykit...its from the same company!!! and destroyed body lines??? i've worked on this car myself..i've done this car up pure precision. i dont see nothin wrong with the lines... you dont need to be sponsored to have a wing like that..and no i didnt buy this car from EBAY...haha..the car on EBAY just makes me laugh..but anywayz..thanx to those who gave me props and for those who didnt like the look of my car..well i guess i cant blame you for your opinions...but yeah!!! thanx for all the opinions keep them coming..good or bad...it just gives me more ideas...

I think that Mazda did a great cosmetic job. Yes, it is your car, and your money, which is really the bottom line...but I think a lot of people see this car as 'sexy', and your mods take that finesse away. Sorry.

yeah man your car is awesome and a lot of people say they wing is to much but watch a tuner company put something like that on a 8 later on and it beats a lot of cars and wins events then everyone will be like i love the wing.

Hey Bro,
Were you in Boston's Chinatown for the Chinese New Year's Parade? I saw a car like yours in one of the back lots but I can't recall if it was exactly like that. Sick car. People are going to flame you like crazy for the wing, but if you like it, power to you.

i don't like the wing, but I don't like the rest of the kit either. The original sexy lines of the car are now lost with all the aftermarket crap in an attempt to be 'different'.
