Not planning on replacing the wheels.
Getting a spoiler in a few months. I need to decide between the Mazdaspeed or the Mazdaspeed Carbon fiber from rotaryextreme.com or any other nice one that comes out.

could someone photoshop this on a titanum?

maybe someone could even take a pic of a titanium at the same angle to see what it would look like.

No. I don't mind, you started the post anyways.
I'm also curious what it would look like on other colors.

Don't know where you heard that. All RX8's sold since July '03 have been known as 2004's.
They might have been talking about the Mazdaspeed front bumper. The one sold in America is different from the Japanese version (oil cooler screen on one side, no plastic on the middle grille to cover up the rebar.)

Or maybe they thought the front air dam of the appearance package is part of the bumper?

Hmm... an interesting other possibility. Looks sharp!

As for a spoiler, I'd go with them in this order...

1. UK Lip spoiler
2. R-Magic lip spoiler
3. Ings+1 rear spoiler

I agree with mikeb's thoughts... the MS one doesn't really go with the lines you've setup on your car...

1. uk lip- too small plus very expensive
2. r-magic - looks just like the uk lip
3. ings lip - looks heavy and not a spoiler

I'm leaning towards the MS spoiler. It looks the best in my opinion.

Looking for a Spoiler not a lip.

1. Too small may be a factor if you want something showy, but price... it may not be. Check this out... https://www.rx8club.com/showthread.p...threadid=25929

2. It's close, but not the same... if it really was, you wouldn't have the clamoring for the UK spoiler. This is more "ducktail" like the overal rear of the Viper GTS, than "lip" like the UK spoiler.

3. I doubt it's THAT heavy. It's made from fiberglass. From the early reports you'd "gain" more weight with the RB muffler over Borla, etc. Overal... it's doesn't look "factory" or "stock" enough for me, so I wouldn't do it, but it's an interesting shape.

For me (and most people I'd ASSUME) if it goes on the rear deck... ugly like the RE Amemiya -type stuff or subtle like the UK Lip... they are all spoilers. In theory they ALL are meant to increase downforce on the rear. The UK one actually improves your cd...

But hey... different strokes for different folks. I think the opinion about MS not looking good is just that it is more "aggressive" (?) than the package you've assembled... so something more subtle may look better. But in the end... what do you care about what we think... it's your ride and as long as you're happy with the results, that's all that matters.

Question why would you want to paint it when its CF? comming CF is pure amazing..

please clarify.. this is only an addition to the body not a replacement body kit? and does it only work with stock body?

CAn you please photoshop one with the blue car with the carbon fiber kit?

IMO sickest looking...Blue car, black decals (a line or two nothing hardcore) carbon fiber hood, carbon fiber spoiler... :: ahh

`uno` lil benny
