MS style kit w/o rear lip?
Well... I have the perfect excuse to add a body kit to my car now that my car got ran into only after a week I got it.
https://www.rx8club.com/canada-forum-35/my-8-got-hit-46422/ Since my budget is limited, my question is whether I should just get the polyurethane front bumper and fiberglass side skirts, and without the rear lips. I'm thinking about the one from extreme dimensions. What do you all think? Will it look awkward? |
honestly
the whole kit always looks better IMO |
i have a nice PolyUR MS style kit on my site

Three questions.
1. Not sure if you guys have it down at the states, but our RX-8s in Canada have headlight washers. How will it affect the installation of any body kits? 2. How will fog lights affect installation? 3. Do MS body kits come with grills? Do I need them? Do I buy them extra? thew, you guys are a bit far from where I am. The shipping and duty will kill me. And that doesn't come painted, does it? |
FYI, thew does have the best prices on urethane kits. Other supplies are Rotary extreme and Extreme Dimensions.

answers:
1. no more headlight washers (yea!!!! they are ugly anyway) you can just disable to pump...simple so simple (i hear) 2. you need to purchase the fog lights bracket, it is really inexpensive...a minor purchase I bet thew at rx8garage.net sells them too (just ask him if it isn't posted on his site yet) 3.I don't know As for if the body kit is painted? YES it is...you just give your color and vin number to make sure the paint is matched correctly...also freight shipping isn't that expensive only problem is you have to pic it up when it arrives (no big deal though)

If you have conections with a good body shop, the unpainted mode may be the way to go. Even if it ends up being a wash price wise, a good shop with color match you perfectly and can blend if necessary. If you get it painted, you get the factory color, but it may not be a "perfect" match. As we all know, there can be some subtle differences from lot-to-lot of factory paint. |
I think the hardest paint to match would be the VR. Black should be pretty easy.
So how about the grill question? Do these kits come with the grill? Thew? |
