R magic looks like a glorified Subaru spoiler...

i have mintblue and i love it though

Any pictures of your mint blue 8?? Are there replicas out there of the R Magic Spoiler?? I was looking & like the MS Speed one in teh picture of it alone above... but I don't like the picture so much of it with the other 2 RX-8's. I just think it doesn't fit my fancy because of how straight it looks from dead on in the back.

I can't wait to see the comments after this... but what do you all honestly think about this type of wing... it reminds me of the Amemiya wing but a little lower... I'm not saying this exact one, but something like this... how would it look??

Now that's a wing. Although, if you are willing to go that extreme, I'd go with the RE Amemiya GT wing.

So back to a prior post... is there no other website or company that sells the R Magic or replica of it for any cheaper?? I absolutely love it, but can't seem to fathom spending 1,000 on it when the MS is much cheaper. Someone please bring me some goods news....

Although I think that you know, GT wing has obtained downforce by making the wings themselves generate a reverse lift.

The flow of the air current which passed the roof causes exfoliation in the place of rear glass, and generates turbulence.

Therefore, it is necessary to raise the wing itself to the same height as a roof.

So, I have a perhaps silly question for everyone. Do the kits actually provide a verifiable improvement in handling ability? At least so far as the nose and spoilers are concerned? Do people test to see if the Cd changes with the kit as well? Skid pad ratings? I realize this is somewhat missing the point of body kits but I hate to pony up 2k+ for something that has no real function aside from look pretty. :D
