The foglights need to be relocated to the lower outside corners and be integrated (like an M3's). Also the car needs to be dropped the front looks more like a cow pusher than a air splitter. The kit does have a very aggressive but smooth look just needs to be applied right and will look good in any color.

i know this sounds weird... but i'm wondering how the stock front bumper (with optional front air dam) would look with the mazda speed side skirts and rear parts. just something i'm interested in, because i love the stock front bumper, but love the mazda speed side skirts. any opinions on this idea?

Just like lefuton the only thing I really want from the kit is the mazdaspeed front, but I really do believe it causes the car to be lower so it will make the car look ackward. The bigger air vents make the car look alot nicer and the half opening grill isn't really helping the car I'm sure, but who knows if the mazdaspeed front is completely open.

that titanium one appears to only have the mazdaspeed front air dam. I was kinda wondering how that would look. I really don't like the rear, and especially don't care for the side skirts. I thought it would look a little out of proportion too, but it really just looks plain mean. Something more to think about I guess...

Has anyone found a splitter that you could add to the stock front end that would be similar to the grahpite colored part on the bottom of the Mazdaspeeed front end. I bought the side skirts, but id rather add a pair of splitters to get that graphite color, since i really like the original front end better...

anyone with a red mazdaspeed kit notice that the paint on the bumper is slightly different (brighter) than the paint on the rest of the car? Or is it just me? =) I got my kit installed and its kinda bugging me... even though my friends keep telling me its not noticeable enough to have it repainted...
