Cool Name of this body kit?

Hey,
I need the name of this body kit, it's for a Mazda RX8 Lol.
Links to a website/the name of this would be much appreciated, thanks.

Why are the best bodykits either concepts or of unknown origin?

I dont think that OEM CF hood is aggressive enough for the car... Needs TS hood or something more aggressive...

I wouldn't say THE BEST body kits are all unknown. The R magic wide body, panspeed, vertex lang, autobahn = teh sex.

That kit is just a hyped up version of the Tsunami kit. Add some splitters to the tsunami's oil cooler vents, a small lip addition and one air duct vent and boom - exact same kit. Minimal alterations.

p.s. those wheels look like poo-poo - just sayin'



p.s.s. - i remember someone once asking about that kit awhile ago - can't remember it exactly but iirc, it was custom and never put up for resale.

Not quite. The central vent comes up higher, and the wheel arch is extended. In my opinion, this kit look heaps better than the tsunami.

to each their own i suppose. - I figure it's just the widebody version of the tsunami. Fender flares and an extended front opening (plus the additions i stated earlier)

Yeah, I see your point, but in that case you could also say that it resembles the INGS+1.
I just think that it's the small details that make the difference between a great kit, and a mediocre one.

I just think that most of the 'mass produced' kits look great from some angles, but awkward from others. Either that, or they're just too wacky for my taste.
For example, to me, the autobahn looks good from the front, but the view from the side lets it down.
