WAY too over the top.

The wing looks like an oversized Subaru STi spoiler, and the ground effects are SO busy.

slllygrl10 11-08-2004 08:11 AM

I dont see it

Petrus 11-08-2004 08:28 AM

Way too much for me... I like the car as it is stock. If any bodywork is needed I will take some parts from different manufacturers. I like the Veilside front for example, but not the rear spoiler. The back spoiler of this ABflug kit is really nice though.
I want a clean but powerful look! :cool:

philodox 11-08-2004 08:31 AM

That abomination needs to be killed on sight..

orbist 11-08-2004 10:17 AM

The nose is just a little too long, just doesn't look quite right. And not a fan of the spoiler thingy!

Like the skirts and the rear though - glad to see someone doing something different.

Any more angles, would like to see the rear quarter, and the straight on front view...

8is>enuff 11-08-2004 10:34 AM

I just threw up in my mouth.

WAY too over the top for me. What ever happened to understated?

foxman 11-08-2004 11:12 AM

toooooooo much, makes veilside look good

slllygrl10 11-08-2004 11:14 AM

omg that is way too much

Shocka 11-08-2004 01:14 PM

wowsers!!!! they made it look like their supra body kit..doHHH!!!!!! Good find by the way!

TR1GGERx1 11-08-2004 03:01 PM

good find ... eh... iono nice.. yet... too much... spoiler is like the STI ...

GrRx8MaZdA 11-08-2004 03:18 PM

wOWWWWWW?????
Clean but way tooooo much...Very big wing for my taste but the 4mufflers change looks good...

subduedracer 11-08-2004 03:42 PM

I didn't think there was going to be a Fast and the Furious part 3!

RXE16T 11-08-2004 03:44 PM

Rear bar and skirts look good....... and that's it.
The rest of the kit is too overboard.

Audioslave8 11-08-2004 04:00 PM

I like the exhaust!

Audioslave8 11-08-2004 04:01 PM

Wait....is that a typeS sticker under the RX8 logo on the back??

there's different models of rx-8 in japan. i think type-s is 6sp manual with leather sunroof etc.

Audioslave8 11-08-2004 09:14 PM

oh, that would make sense... when i saw that i thought of the type- S logo for the RSX

Razz1 11-09-2004 12:54 AM

Damn and we thought Shawrf had a park bench in the back.

Look at that spolier. This abuf must have a couch on the back trunk.

yea its not a rice thing like putting type R on an eclipse

EZZY 11-09-2004 03:32 AM

good effort, but too busy for me :p
the front end is very similar to their supra design ;)

Spazm 11-09-2004 03:43 AM

That is absolutely disgusting. It looks like the cow-scooper thing on the front of a train. Please, for the love of god, no one disfigure their 8 like that.

HAHAHAHAHAHAhahahahaha. eh? hey... ;) Anyways, I like the smoky background in the pics.

No leather no sunroof. Type-S is the 6-port engine with 6-speed manual. There's the base 4-port manual and auto and the Type-E (I think) which is the auto with bigger rims, etc.

8inVegas 11-09-2004 08:15 AM

i like the front and rear bumper, the wing and side skirts are a little much. the front has been given a lot more flavor.

SuPerHerO::tOnY 11-09-2004 07:09 PM

i totally agree the front end is way too much. i love the back and the sides are okay. i probably get the entire kit and replace the front end with rmagic

BrilliantBlack8 11-09-2004 08:14 PM

i think the front end is trying to look to much like supra

thanks for the correction :)

I wasn't sure how this thing was going to look when they were prototyping it, but I rather like it now that it is all fleshed out. Not a fan of the wing. Might have to see it in person to make a decision, like I did with the Veilside. But, on a whole, I'm a fan... but I was also in love with their Supra kit.

They left understated on the 6... The rx8 in stock form isn't even in the same zipcode as understated.. :rolleyes:

I agree.. the wing is too much.. thinking I might photoshop up a non-wing pic to get the gist of it

artx8 12-01-2004 08:34 PM

does anyone know where you can purchase this kit?

I can't tell if you are serious after some of the posts on here

but defninitely that wing looks like a flatop...cool in the 80s...not now not now not now

said7 12-02-2004 08:28 AM

pretty sweet at least its not anothe MS copy.

Id like to see more pics of the front from diff angles.

orbist 12-03-2004 03:16 PM

I *think* that nose is a Veilside Celica Nose, grafted onto the 8. It actually looks ok on the Celica, I was thinking of getting it for my 190 before I fell for the 8!

shelleys_man_06 12-04-2004 08:06 AM

Good thing Ab-Flug decided to update their webpage (finally). Personally, I think it looks pretty damn good sans the wing. Ab-Flug is known for making pretty wild bodykits, so I don't expect them to change for the RX-8.

I tend to agree, abflug in my opinion has always been indicative of a JZ. Their kits are extremely well built, just too extreme for my taste...To each his own.

Omicron 12-04-2004 10:36 AM

I like the quad exhaust tips, but the rest is waaaaaaaaaaaaay too much.

Jrook 12-04-2004 01:55 PM

their kit for the supra is gorgeous but that thing on the 8 looks out of place its not a correct match

Mikelikes2drive 12-05-2004 10:57 PM

wow that's hideous... i wonder what they were thinking...

RXE16T 12-06-2004 05:07 AM

I suppose they will still sell heaps of the kit since every ricer with a Civic is gonna try to custom fit it to their car.

SHOWOFF 12-08-2004 06:45 PM

Holy crap that's a lot of shit going on.

fd3s777 12-12-2004 11:35 PM

That's AB Flug's signature design.
