pics of what product would look like...

phrenetiK 07-20-2010 04:13 PM

there you go, someone did that on these forums themselves but damn it looks good.

WTBRotary! 07-20-2010 04:15 PM

Omg that looks SOO sexy, damn that would look clean on my WB 8... id totally be down for one of these... if not all my emblems wrapped...

RX-865 07-20-2010 05:22 PM

That looks downright amazing. I'd be down for this if you had this made into a group buy.

2tone 07-20-2010 06:56 PM

yeah, no kidding. that is about 1000 times better than what i thought it would look like. i'd buy it for me and my gf's mazda 3.

bumblebeerx8 07-20-2010 07:18 PM

im sure this is not real carbon. Is it a vinly sticker or material? but it does look good better than i pictured

lilring 07-20-2010 08:41 PM

hell yeah i would buy that!

L337fpc 07-20-2010 09:19 PM

HaydonGS 07-20-2010 10:49 PM

RX-865 07-20-2010 11:31 PM

WTBRotary! 07-21-2010 12:35 AM

Lets get this bad boy going.... btw thats a Series 2 front bumper...

phrenetiK 07-21-2010 01:17 PM

got an email back from my contact. he said it took 30mins for the first prototype flying M. he said it looks sick, they froze it last night and are baking it in 100 degree weather today to see how it holds up...he said he will send pics soon and ill update when he does!

they are weather testing these for a week before they will start selling/shipping.

i need a count of how many people want to buy roughly! hopefully more than just 5 of you or so :p

DIY kit = 15bucks
From them with brand new emblem = 75~
they won't let us ship them our current emblems.

2tone 07-21-2010 03:12 PM

i'll have to wait til i get home to see those last pics, but the FLYING M in CF sounds AWESOME too!!

i have one issue though...i don't have the emblem in my front bumper (aftermarket). are the front emblem and rear emblem the same size??? if not, will they do both (so i can buy the trunk emblem)?

9krpmrx8 07-21-2010 03:22 PM

Looks good, I wonder if they are using 3M wrap. Most other will fade and look like shit after a month or two.

phrenetiK 07-21-2010 03:27 PM

thats why they are doing extreme weather condition testing to make sure it keeps looking good. idk what they used he said its a $1600 roll of stuff that has the CF look or w/e.

9krpmrx8 07-21-2010 03:54 PM

Cool.

WTBRotary! 07-21-2010 04:24 PM

Nice man, yeah ask them to make sure the design/DIY is different from a Series 1 and 2, the emblem is bigger on a S2 bumper and more surrounded than the S1 bumper where the emblem just sticks out...

And are you going to make different sizes for the Front and Rear emblems as well? Possilby the RX-8 emblem and Mazda emblem? Im curious to see if this would just look weird with the front emblem covered in CF...

and get some new parking lights Scott... Stock= ewww :lol2:

Suh_weeeeettt !!!

shakeyourbrakes 07-21-2010 05:50 PM

huh?... why not just take your emblem off, buy a scrap of 3m Di-Noc carbon fiber on ebay for like 5 bucks, use a hair dryer and apply it to the emblem. I mean, I guess a DIY kit is a good idea, but im sure thats all it is. I wrapped a bunch of parts in my 8 with the stuff, and it looks the same

WTBRotary! 07-21-2010 05:56 PM

^^^ Yup, but some of us are lazy and just want a kit we can buy... lol hopefully precut or something because Im horrible and wrapping things. I wouldnt be suprised if I messed this up...

shakeyourbrakes 07-21-2010 05:57 PM

ha, yea good point...i mean 15 bucks isnt bad either way if it makes life easier. 75 is a little steep though for a wrapped emblem...

WTBRotary! 07-21-2010 06:01 PM

Yeah $75 is steep, if it was like $30 shipped Id be down

phrenetiK 07-21-2010 07:54 PM

i think the emblem they are buying is like 50 bucks or something
