I Just ordered the Vertex kit!
 
Currently i have the INGS kit on my car and i became tired of its look (too agressive). So i went ahead and place the order for the full vertex kit! The rear bumper and sideskirts are already here in the states, however the front is still on the container. once the kit comes in the mail, i will have it installed along with the whole car repainted. so stay tuned!!

Congratulations, IMHO this is probably the classiest kit out there for our car.

been a while since I've seen a full Vertex kit on a BB, can't wait to see it once it's completed. (I miss FE3P's car. :( )


did you order from an authorized distributor or go directly to Vertex USA?
Can't go wrong either way as there's some great distributors out there and Dat over at Vertex is awesome to work with.
I remember test fitting Newcastle's kit when he received it and I was VERY impressed with the initial fitment. If yours is anything like his, be careful around the corner lights as it's a very tight fit.

I love this kit! Looking forward to the seeing it installed :)

Can't wait for pics of it. I still prefer a MS kit though.

^Not true, everyone on the forums maybe...But how many RX8's in Charlotte do you see with the MS kit besides me....

to be honest, 3! lol. but that i know of you may just be the only authentic one.

TopGear8 10-23-2011 01:51 PM

3...out of how many RX8's in the area...100+

So 3% of RX8 owners have the MS bodykit...

Yup, everyone has one ;)

bse50 11-29-2011 01:32 PM

Would you tell me how much you paid for shipping?
A stupid french backed into my car this summer and i'm not liking the duct-tape look much :)

bse50 11-29-2011 01:56 PM

Thanks!
I'm sure it will cost me at least five times that though :(

that suxs :(

Yeah... there are no real EU distributors.
I'd appreciate any info on where you bought it from etc though, maybe they could skip the "distribution" and have a kit shipped straight to my door from japan saving some money!
Thanks and looking forward to seeing your pics!
