hehehe Thanks, though I was just in Irvine today, and I pulled up next to another Black RX-8, thought it could have been you Mike, but didn't have Racing beat exhaust. Looked like an Indian guy or something.. not sure.
Though I still live in Cerritos, so you'll be seeing me around somewhere.
I'll take more pix on Sunday, shouldn't rain on that day. Any requests? Angles? I'm not sure what could be a good pic to see...

I might still get a Ings+1 kit as a backup to this one... so not sure. As long as no cutting is involved.

I know what you mean, still not found a rear that I like / turns my head.
I think the Ings+1 rear spats are just a replacement for the black plastic exhuast surrounds on the rear bumper. They detach from the rear bumper fairly easily. The actual painted bits of the Ings+1 spats attach as per the Mazda appearance package rear spats.
I've stuck with the Mazda parts for now. Until I find something a bit different. (Everything seems a bit too much of a clone of the MS rear)
The only one that stands out so far is the Abflug, but I don't think it will look right with my Ings and Veilside.

Will you be coming to an OC Meet Thursday? I'm sure people would like to see your mirrors, and other stuff you got. I would like to see how the mirrors are... :P

I've had possession of all these skirts one way or another, and this is what I came to the conclusion of.
If anyone decides to get the front, don't drop the car just yet.. you'll see how low it is without dropping it.

Ya, that's what Sam (Trigger) said when he came by today to see it in person.. looks good as it is. I still need to see how it rides when the 19" rims comes.. maybe it'll raise the front a tad...

It's really a good quality kit.. and if you think our cars catches other people's eyes.. you should see the attention I get now when I go to the Dealership or other places other RX-8 Owners are. They are like.. WTF is that. I had some of the Master Tech Mazda people's on Saturday come to see the car, and one even said.. "That's how it should have been." :P Can't get a better compliment than that.

Do you think the MS side skirts are the same height off the ground as the Auto-Bahn side skirts?

Yes, Sideskirts are the same height. There is no problem of clearence from these, and it's the same length and dimensions as the MS sideskirt... depending on your style, it should all work the same. The only reason I got Autobahn is because of the front bumper, might as well keep it as complete as possible. Though I did like the Veilside Skirts... those look very nice.

Hello.
So,Nice!
AERO Kits of AU-TO BAHN SPORTS which a silver car is equipped with was seen for the first time.
The president of AU-TO BAHN SPORTS said "More than one kit was sent to the Japanese foreign countries.". I am glad that I can see one unit of that.
The car which equips Aero Kits of AU-TO BAHN SPORTS doesn't reach twenty units even in the Japanese country.He told me.
I reported "the muffler of the big caliber" of new sale before.
Production was completed "A muffler at the new-model four ends" of simultaneous sale.
It is reported again.

I'm beginning to have clearence issues with the front bumper... maybe it's time to sell it. I have some pretty steep driveways that I have to go around at work. If it wasn't so steep, I would keep the bumper... but the parking garage has a near 45 degree angle. Hmmm... decisions decisions.
$850 obo For the front bumper with Sunlight Silver Paint. Local Pickup. I'll prolly end up going back to the stock bumper or the MS front bumper....
