BodyKit & TintWdw [Advice&Experience]
Good day,
I've got my (red) 2004 RX8 for quite a while now and I've grown very fond of the car due to the handling and unique-ness of the car.
I always wanted to tweak it a little bit, both performance wise and on a visual basis, so I looked around and figured that something as trivial as a bodykit will change the cars appearance drastically.
So since a couple weeks I'm really considering getting myself a body kit, however there are some constraints. Does anyone have experience with "steetablity"? I mean did you run into trouble going to places because the car will be lower? I've already lowered it a bit and got myself some racing mirrors which look way better than the ones that come with it originally.
Do you have a general advice as of which Kit to get? I want something decent and to a reasonable price. I've been thinking about the Kit provided by Mazdaspeed . I guess I won't have trouble if the car has to be checked and such.
Furthermore I was thinking to have my rear windows tinted red - since the car is red. Anyone experience with that?
Thanks,
BH

I have a suggestion:
Do not buy anything from "Extreme Dimensions". I lost over $700 dollars in total dealing with them.
Instead:
I would gravitate to: Auto-Exec/ R-Magic / INGS / or Authentic Mazda speed. These products are excellent.
When it comes to body kits, there are no "cheap" kits. They all cost about the same when you add in the cost of body mold work - on cheap parts.
Extreme Dimensions has earned their reputation on this board, which makes sense, since they didn't call their company "Accurate Dimensions".
