Pre-2009 Conversion kits?
 
Hey there... it's been a while. I've been trying to save my money up for an RX-8. I was really excited about the 2009 model, until I seen the pictures and read up on everything I could about the changes. Most of the changes I don't like are cosmetic.

So that brings up my question.

Is there any way to convert a 2009+(I assume they're making the 09 chassis the look for a while) to a 2003-2008 model?
- Gills
- Taillights
- Steering Wheel

Its a little more than that, headlights, fr fenders, fr and rear bumpers, the entire dash, the gauges, the seats, it would be more economical(much more) to find a used '03-'08. Im sure it wouldnt be hard with alot of people out there trying to dump their low mpg cars....

slightly better engine in the 09.

I like everything about the 09 besides the look. Albeit, it's really the -only- thing I know of cars. I don't know the performance differences, mpg, etc between the two models.

One thing I really like about the 09, is the navigation display and where it's located.

how about buying a pre-2009 model and getting a new updated engine with al lthe changes and dropping that in it

^ thats retarded

anyways, I don't know about the back end, I kinda like it

but I'm sure you can get the front end bumper of the older models

Better yet, wait a few months and pick up a leftover new 08. They will heavily discount it when the 09's are more widely available.

I did the same at the end of calendar year 2007 on a new 07. Definitely worth it :)
