I special ordered the front lip about 5 months ago. It's the ks-auto burnout front lip. Here's a US distributor site http://www.iosrc.com/memoryfab/detail/?id=52 .

The MS springs lowered it about 1 inch. I try to avoid speedbumps or just go over them very slowly. I have a couple scrapes on the front lip, but they're only noticeable if you look underneath the car.

That's a beautiful ride. I wouldn't add anything more to the exterior. It looks hellasexy without the spoiler. The accent grey color on the MS kit makes the whells fit even better.

Simply beautiful ride. That is one sharp looking RX-8.

Why did you choose to go with the staggered set-up on your rims/tires? Just curious.

I picked the staggered setup because I decided I will not be autocrossing anymore. It'll be more of a showcar. I was thinking of waiting for the 18" hiros to be released (probably 2 months) and not get the staggered setup, but I liked the look of the staggered setup so much.

I don't remember what kind it was, but it's 30%. Legal limit in TX.
