Smile Monster Garage Customs, RX8 JGTC style wide body kit..
I was looking for pictures of a wide body kit for a Supra and stumbled upon this RX8.. Unfortunately I couldn't find any other pictures of this beast... The website for Monstergaragecustoms.com in Malaysia is down.. If you know anything about this car please add it to this thread or to my wiki site..

here's link to the pic..

Thanks

As far as purchasing goes, I don't sell anything, my site is just a reference, I know MGC makes it but I'm not sure if they're still in business and their website seems to be down at the moment.

Hopefully it dies a quick death. It's hideous.

Here's some of their Supra with the SC430 front end.

Here you can see a hint of it on the RX8 , 3rd one from the front.

It's certainly JGTC inspired, that's for sure. Dunno how functional it is though!

i remember seeing this a while back in the super autobacs thread. i believe there were some more pics. I really love the hood, as for the rest of the kit, its not for me.


Edit: Rotr is faster.

Not saying it isnt but just throwing crazy lines doesnt make it necessarily more aerodynamic

Not that the lines are "crazy", it looks like it would be quite aerodynamic.. I'd be willing to bet if someone threw it in a wind tunnel it would produce good results.

Still doesn't look good though.

aerodynamic functionality..
I would say that 90% of the body kits aren't wind tunnel tested, maybe more.

wow, nice pics!

Do you have anymore? Perhaps some more from the rear / front , 3/4.. more the better..

Is that a one-off kit too?

You guys should make that hood, I'm not sure how popular the RX-8 is in Malaysia, but that hood looks like it would sell.
