Autobahn body kit

wow, i just saw this for the first time on mazdaparts.com. That is probably the sexiest front bumper i've seen on a 8. Nice and simple but wow.

and the sexiest back has to go to the "fabulous rear"

now if i only had about 2500 dollars to get that in winning blue and installed on my car i'd be the happiest man in the world. haha

i agree, it is a nice kit. there was a pretty recent GB of replicas. try doing a search for autobahn, youll find a few.

as for the fabulous rear, it is pretty nice. i dont know of anyone that has it though

I plan on getting the Shine Autobahn kit, and the Fabulous rear. Gonna order the Fab at the end of next month, and I'll be among the first for the Shine once he starts up his second run.

anybody can "RE-ENGINEER" a product and make it better, it doesnt take that much skill, but its the principle of the matter, if it doesnt bother that much inside to buy replica then go for it, but the pure enthusiast knows whats up.

i should qualify by saying, i cant comment or compare between shine's replica and the original. the original could have been worse for all i know. i may have been more disappointed with an original product cuz not only would i have paid double for the parts themselves but i may have had to pay more for body work as well.

a pure enthusiast of what? i am a driving/racing enthusiast. "whats up" is that i dont want to spend a ton of money on a body kit. i liked how it looked but its not a priority.

I liked the varis but it wouldnt have lasted very long, the ground would have ate it up fast....who knows, maybe one day might =)

back to the autobahn kit, yes it is a very beautiful kit...

I smell hatorade
I have the Shine autobahn and proud of it Im usually the first one to hate on replica's because of the work into it basically.but loved the look and thats the bottom line. I lucked out and got a good bumper for the price.u think i care who or what created the idea and now making a profit. with that said

My **** is beyond sexy.now I get tired of explaing to people its not a new Ferrari or Lambo murci but the attention is beyond the MS bumper.
