MS Front Bumper & SS w/ RX-8 Car Cover ?

So I broke down and bought the front bumper & side skirts today [ after my hellish encounter w/ a shredded truck tire on the highway ] and my RX-8 car cover came in the mail yesterday from Rosenthal. It fits LIKE A GLOVE. For this reason I'm wondering if it will still fit the car after I put the MS front bumper and sideskirts on ?

Its a tight fit but does fit. I have one on my RX-8 with the complete body kit and the rear spoiler causes the rear to show a little of the bottom rear fascia.

Interesting. I didn't think it would fit. So if you had the full MS Kit and no rear spoiler... the car cover should fit ok, right?

Just the bottom lip on the front is exposed.

^^ yeah, it should fit with that configuration.

I've got appearance pkg & MS wing and the wing seems to be what throws evertying off...you end up with your exhaust tips sticking out the bottom.

I'm not going to have the wing. My cracked front lip from the app. package is slightly exposed w/ the car cover. I can also get it over my tips w/ a little tugging.

I'm amazed it will fit a kitted car. It's a snug fit without:
