All RX-8 Body Kits
Carisma
Does anyone have a valid link for the carisma kit... it looks pretty sweet, but the link posted in the original sticky is no longer valid... pwned by the sands of time 
EDIT: The carisma kit, is also know as j-speed as seen on andysautosport.com Just noticed that. Also we need to get this updated to include the fabulous kit, cause that thing is AMAZING!

I have been trying to buy this thing for the last three months and I have sent my info to this company to get pricing on it four times and they have not replied back once. But they seem to be the only ones who carry it unless some one here can point me in the right direction.

im NEW here and i might sound like a noob ... i was wondering what's the different between Veilside D1-gt and Invader ...coz i sincerely dont know whats the differents between them and why they cost so much different ..
Accolade set up a GB here and just look at the amounts of $$ People had to spend to make the Fenders fit properly. Do a search everyone here knows how bad there products are.....
Veilside D1-gt is an authentic kit made by an authentic company (Veilside). The Invader is just a knockoff of that kit, meaning its a replica.
in a picture.......no.....in life when you get the kit it may seem like its fit for 2 different cars.....a replica company takes an original part, makes a mold of it and then sells the copied part....even authentic kits need some fit work because after molding dozens of kits the mold tends to warp.....so now with a replica your making molds of already mildly warped kits......what makes you think if your the few hundredth kit yours is gonna be remotely close to fitting right?
then you need to go to mr body man......he needs to fit and paint the kit......if the kit is warped he has to charge you much more in labor to un-warp it and make it look decent......then he has to charge to take out imperfections like pinholes and fray.....then he needs to add material so it doesnt crack the first pothole you hit......
i also forgot to mention original materials....japanese fiberglass is much thicker and better put together (for lack of better words) than the cheap american knock off stuff......durability goes a long way when you are putting expensive body parts on your car.....
so in closing most people who buy these fake cheap kits are most of the time paying the body guy much more money to fix it than they might have paid for an original.....so there is a good chance you would fair better paying up front and having the honor of having the real thing...and it can save you in the long run financially and for the grief......not to mention real companies like VeilSide for instance have some programs that warantee or replace parts....try getting that from a knock off company

hey guys, i just recently bought my rx-8 and i have been thinking on what sort of a body kit should i use to tune up my car a little. so it looks even more sick then it is already...my car didn't come with a spoiler or the accent package and all that extra stuff..so if you have any suggestions please reply that will be really helpful
Anyone have a short list of kits that:
1) Don't require the removal of the front or rear re-bar
2) Are made of material as good as the Mazdaspeed kit (Metton® liquid molding whatever the hell that means)
I'm pretty much resigned that the Mazdaspeed kit it what I'll end up with even though it's about 1k more than I'd like to spend and while it's a good look I think some of the other designs (ie. Vertex Lang) are a little more aggressive.
There's a lot on the forum regarding the look of a kit but not nearly enough on the make of a authentic kit. So far everyone I've liked turns out to either not fulfill my two requirements or it doesn't look good.
I'm not doing anything until the Winter when my car goes back in the garage but some of the better kits do require at least a few months lead time.
I'm also curious what appearance accessories work with Mazdaspeed kit and what come off. I don't have the appearance package but if the flares or guards work with the MS kit then I might grab and install those before the Winter.
