If it were me I would not go crazy with the wing. Keep it clean. Smaller is better.

The Rims and Tires cost me 2400 installed with the stock TPMS sensors. The bodykit cost me 2300 not painted. The front bumper took me the longest to install. Especially because I had no help. The fit was around 80%. But the tollerences are easy to live with.

what kind of kit is that? looks great and where did you get it from?

IZoomZoomI 03-04-2005 02:09 AM

thew 03-04-2005 02:35 AM

thew 03-04-2005 03:15 AM

X-SIN-X 03-04-2005 01:16 PM

2300 shipped to my door.

Outlaws eXtreme 03-04-2005 02:43 PM

X-Sin, so how much are you paying for the prep/install/paint on the kit?

X-SIN-X 03-04-2005 03:36 PM

I paid about 600 for paint job for the entire kit. I installed the kit myself. This kit was in excellent condition and all but a minor pitting on the rear bumper had to be smoothed out.

Love it. Especially the rims. Agree with whoever said, try the MS wing rather than R Magic.

V v v quick photochop, you get the idea.

XsinX.....any pix of the new mirrors?

- Irish :cool:

Mikelikes2drive 03-06-2005 09:24 PM

the kit looks awesome, but not feeling the rims and that 3rd brake decal seems kinda tacky. or actually very tacky but thats just my opinion. love the kit and happy for u.

X-SIN-X 03-08-2005 01:31 PM

I will have the Side Mirrors on in a couple of days. I will post pics as soon as I have them installed. Currently reserching the wireing schematics so that I can conent the leds to the flasher control module.

joyridevr6 03-08-2005 02:11 PM

Do you have power mirrors? If so are these power as well?

X-SIN-X 03-08-2005 02:44 PM

I do have powered and heated mirrors currently on the 8. The AU-TO Bahn Sport mirrors are powered but not heated. I don't need the heated mirrors because I don't drive the 8 during icy conditions anyway.

Outlaws eXtreme 03-08-2005 03:19 PM

But the Ganador and the Auto bahn are made for the J Spec cars, thus the "Image is closer" thing is on the wrong side... not sure how distorted this is. Maybe Mikeb or some one that has one of these can chime in.

From what I can tell, both images within the mirrors look identical. if I had to choose which one is amplified more I would say the right mirror shows a slightly larger image/reflection. Hard to tell?

mikeb 03-09-2005 05:34 PM

I have the ganador mirrors on my rx8 from vividracing.com
they work on US cars

the only issue is they are very small

Outlaws eXtreme 03-09-2005 06:08 PM

Small, but look bad ass :)

If they only retained the heated mirror function, that would rock... or one of those turn signal light deals inside the mirror. I've yet to see Mike's car in ages now... gotta see the new toys.

very nice kit man...it is definitely high up there on my list of kits to get for my car. simple yet hardcore. one of the things i worry about is scrapin bc i live in a city full of hills. I can not tell from yout pictures, but does the front bottom lip stick out as much as the version on the JIC car?

TR1GGERx1 03-20-2005 01:43 AM

those are called canards and they cost about $200 extra.

thew 03-20-2005 04:44 PM

Yes the Canards are Extra. they take about 30 days ...
