Im hoping this body kit can be found somewhere as it looks much different than any I have seen. I cant seem to pinpoint the front end though. Does anyon know where this front end can be found?

I think it's the NRF, but modified to fit the widebody.
I'm sure there's more info out there.

I would say you could find one at the bottom of the tasteless bin.

I'm surprised you dont think it looks good. I guess the front end may be a bit too much for some people, but I think it looks like the best kit for the rx8. To each his own though

I guess im alone in thinking this kit is hot. Well, other than the kid that ownes this car. Regardless, I still cannot find the front bumper. It almost looks like it was taken from an audi front end...

There was about 6 people here that thought it looked good. Someone bought an original and made 5 copies. I believe one of our Moderators has it on his car.

Thanks for the information. You stated someone bought the original? Does that mean it was custom built and 5 copies were made? If so, would that also mean there would be no way of getting this kit.

Just trying to pry for more informatiion as I really like this kit!!!

Guess I'll have to find a different body kit as this one is going to be an impossibility... Any ideas on anything close to this would be appreciative.

I dont think it would be called "bad taste" as other people seem to like the kit as well. I would say an acquired taste like a fine wine. Everyone has there own preference, despite the fact that you think it's intolerable.
