It is bolt on, AND it uses 2 sided tape - just like the Mazda appearance package parts.

As far as I know, there is only ONE red color for the RX-8... although different batches of paint may vary slightly from batch to batch.

Aerowerks kits do not come painted. That part is up to you (unless you have THEM do it, like Mike did, but he's local). Only the real MS kit comes painted. They have the option to order un-painted parts, but it's not much of a price savings.

The AeroWerks Kit is made of Urethane. I believe the original MS is made of Metton.
