You then suddenly turn around and slam the company as making kits that are too gaudy and more cuiser than perfomance stuff... pointing out the Toyota line. What's up here man? You started on Ferraris and end on Toyotas. You also never stated if you did or did not like the whole RX-8 kit or any part of it. What am I... a mind reader?
yeah when you linked me to their site i checked their deal out more thorougly, before was just what i saw in japanese magazines and pictures of japanese car shows on the net. i did note that the rear bumper of the 8 does not look like very audi-esque, so there you go, fabulous rx8 comment. for a more thorough comment, i think its OK, its nice but not my style.

and armyrx8, i dont know how this came up but whatever i think we're pretty much through

my gf likes that kit..i can't stand the front though ...but the back isn't too bad. i like it dead on from the rear..but not sure if i really like it from the side and 3/4 view...the profile shot is important after all lol :D

I found them to be in that there seems to be a current trend of dual exhaust with a blackout center piece rear bumper in the auto market. Sometimes this is combined with a "diffuser" (real or not), sometimes not.

In the end... looks are subjective... to each his own... :p

Hmm.. do you think the RB kit will go with this rear ok? I'm not sure if the side skirts will flow well with it or not...

You don't mind all fiberglass for your kit (or at least for the bumpers)? That really bugs me with the RB kit... especially when there are MS knockoff kits that are urethane...

well the fiber glass on the front bothers me but not anywhere else. i think the side skirts will look great with the Fab rear

and they will also match , i think , with either the RB Nose




or the Vertex Lang nose

hmm, if you get the vertex, get the canards too, i think that would be pretty cool. racing beats kit looks great but i hate fiberglass(and avoid urethane when i can)

yeah they're called VIS racing, get their products in POLYFIBER. the lightweight of fiberglass and the durability of urethane, without the saggyness=great :D
