the second pic.. we'll see..

completely agree, whatever they had going with the first clean design they completely threw out the window with the second design...


the hood is aggressive but still interesting with an intake duct it would be very simular to the 7 Scoot hood,,

JPY = 0.0109539 USD $1

81,900.00 JPY= $897.121 USD

897.12 x 5% (JAP tax)= $44 tax

$897.12 + 5% tax = $941 + shipping

MAIL ORDER JAPAN.com (for estimate)

Bumpers7500 yen Per bumper

US Customers:For the US for SAL and Ocean shipping, weight limit is 30kg. Box length limit is 1.05 meters with a total of 2 meters for the length, width and height of the box. The EMS weight limit is 30kg. Box length limit is 1.5 meters with a maximum of 2.75 meters combined for length, width and height of the box. Wheels with tires are not allowed to the US. All tires must be approved by the US DOT.

7,500.00 JPY = 82.3241 USD

$941 + $82 = $1023 .....saving my pennies

Now im just trying to figure out all 1 color or paint the "flares" or w/e Black/ matching wheels? Suggestions? (yes no more chrome)

I see this as a double positive. I get to see the bumper on an 8, probably in person. And we get rid of your current front end! Wooo!!!

I finally got back a quote it is around $1100 for shipping by plane to germany, probably woudn't be much of price difference to the states. I'm looking into getting there side skirts too.

Rotr8 01-13-2010 01:09 PM

you should tell them that they get free advertising on the Nurburgring and that you want a discount,,,
Seriously, small co's like that eat that shit up,,, Of course that means youd have to order it directly from them and not a vendor...

yeah its not looking very nice, pretty much what they're going for is a simular look to thier Custome 7 that they debuted at TAS last year, which really looked nice, guess it didnt translate too well over to the 8,,,

Well, it's not the best looking kit, but it'd be nice to see a full kit for the 09+ models. Instead of all these add-ons, such as lip kits and different bumper grilles.

Updates are mostly coming from Mr. Amemita himself.. There's a Diary page on their site, where he posts updates every other day or so. But, I first came across the concept bumper, on a different site, which I assumsed someone took while they were visiting the RE Amemiya shop.

I didn't even notice the similarities.. Good eye!

I also found out that R Magic is working on a new kit(s) for the RX-8, they're also putting a 4 rotor in their pink and white RX-8 project car. Here is some pictures of photoshops they've been playing around with, the last concept looks like a Ferrari 599 GTB front end.
