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,,

 

im going to buy it next month for BDAY

 

You would get that... someone needsto take your 8 away Zumn.

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)

 

+1 .. you guys have 1 month.... before i order mine (insert evil laugh here)

 

Series II body kit is complete, hopefully this will go into production, soon.

 

i need that hood ASAP

 

i want this my 05 will look like an r3

 

Hopefully not,,,, with the exception of the hood,,,

 

Where exactly are you getting these pics and updates from R,,,

 

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!!!

 

hahahaha +1

 

Not feeling the rear bumper but need pics further away to see what it looks like.

 

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.

 

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 **** 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.

 

This one has potential.

 

sorry guys it looks like this to me
