^I'll be getting some coilovers next season for the track, along with track wheels/tires. Right now i'm leaning toward KW Variant 3's...But I may change my mind.

Ha no MS rear at the moment. I like the style of the stock rear better, maybe sometime in the future I will change my mind though...who knows..

yeah same here about the butt of the 8. how much was the front MS by itself?

^I got the front from Mazda for $1300.00 Painted. And I picked it up, it would have cost more if it was shipped.

Yeah, you got a point there, I see no rx8's with the MS kit around here either.

Hey man how've you been? I actually took it to the place your reccommended, Import paint and body. Lauren is a cool guy, But It was kinda a pain in the *** getting it finished. They told me they couldn't install the side skirts because of how they were made...Then they painted the bottom lip the wrong color. But we got the paint straightned out and they resprayed them. I picked them up last tuesday and installed them myself. But They did a good job with the paint. I'm getting a Seibon carbon fiber TS hood within the next week, and lauren said take it buy whenever and they'll paint it for me.

^I thought about it, But didnt want a bunch of jagged edges around the fogs, and didn't want to risk it looking bad, so i left it covered.

IMVHO that is the weakest looking part of the MS kit. Some people think it looks naked without the proper rear, but I think yours looks just perfect. Way to be.
