That's pretty lame. I guess I have some drilling to do if I ever get my hood.

It is not my hood, It is flyboyindy's. You can contact him here, or at the indyrx8club.com site. I am not sure how often he checks this site.

Yup, they also got some new apparel clothes.. (jacket, track outfit, etc.) Also, they have some new license plate rotary shape screws.

They have finished painting and installed the hood on (01.10.08) on the Knight Sports RX-8 vehicle. They also finished testing the spoiler on the RX-7 successfully, so things should go in production real soon. I've contacted them today, and hope to get a responde tomorrow about the production items. If you like the hood, there shouldn't be a need for you to rush into getting the Veilside hood. Plus, the new Knight Sports hood will go great with your Knight Sports body kit. I think, it's one of the best designed hoods for the RX-8 so far. Looks very sharp in my own opinion. I will keep you updated as soon as I hear something again.

Today? Are they even painted yet? Also, I thought you were going to wait until you get your body kit installed.. Also, I think the MS rear would look good with the Knight Sports kit. But, If I was you I would look around for other rear bumpers before choosing..

What???!! Hell no! J/K I don't care.. LOL It's not like I use them anymore, but I gotta check if they're still good. I think, one of clip on part of the exhaust shroud might be broken. I'm not sure though.. Just come over when you have time, and we'll check it out

Here you are. Varis hood is still better imo and the wing is for racing purpose (too big)

the previous wing looks alot better that this one. the stand is huge and ugly, GT style stand looks much better than that.
