Auto Exe none. INGS probably very little.
Lip spoilers like the UK one or RMagic seem to not require any? As I understand like that lower part of the MS spoiler, it's held on with industrial tape.

I don't remember seeing pics of it on their site, but... a forum member has pics of it on their car... https://www.rx8club.com/showthread.p...ic+lip+spoiler
It also looks like someone is finally going to pick up production of a replica UK lip spoiler... https://www.rx8club.com/showthread.p...threadid=25929

My experience was OK enough. <shrug> Little slow shipping, but the price was excellent. Everything they told me was basically accurate.

This thread's a good cautionary tale....
If it looks too good to be true
(and you don't have friends in a bodyshop that'll hook you up with
a couple thousand bucks worth of install)
....It probably IS.

I've NEVER seen a fiberglass kit from ANYONE that didn't need significant prep work. My guess would be that it is probably better quality, but the body work won't be much different. Still have to sand the hell out of it, get rid of any waves, etc. regardless of if it's kinda bad or really bad.

i'm guessing the ms style kit from rotaryextreme is of better quality and reliability than the AAS one? i'd save money from the prepping i need to do on the AAS right?

Yep. But there's quite a bit of a discount for ordering them all. If I remember correctly, I think they wanted $400 for just the front bumper.
I think if I were to do it again, I'd order the sideskirts & rear piece from them in fiberglass, then order the actual MS front bumper. Fiberglass doesn't seem to survive being mounted to the front of the car as well as it does on the side or rear.

This is pictures of installed body kit for AutoAccessoryStore.com
They sponsor my car, So I got it for cheaper price.
There were some modifications to the kit, but body shop completed all work withing a week.
But I don't have a problem with it, and it holds fine.

HK.RX888 -
Yea, Yea. I already had to explain once.
The guy who works there, is a friend of mine.
When I was regestering on the RX8 forum, I was at their warehouse, I didn't know what name to pick. My friend suggested AAS, so I did it.
My car is one their website, because they sponsor it, so ...
And I have to drag it to every show they go to for exposure.
Plus, I'm not talking anybody into buying it. I just showed how it looks on my car.
