I like the front spoiler! And the sides look like all the rest or at least like the Burnout ones but alot more expensive.

Not bad. I could sure see it better without all that loud paint, though!

I'm also interested in their grille treatment.. looks like some sort of an insert in the main opening, and something in the oild cooler openings too, I just can't tell what they are.

Actually there are better pics of it in the RX-8 mag I have. It doesn't look like the burnout kit (which is also pictured in the mag). The side sills look more like the FEED ones to me.

This kit is available in CF (pictured) or FRP (to be painted body color).

BTW, many more kits that are listed in my mag. It'll take time for me to put them all up. I haven't read the whole mag yet, AND I don't have a scanner... just a digital camera. So finding the websites will give much better pics... which means more time before posting. Sorry!

The stock black plastic piece... it's replaced with a CF piece. That'd be it. Why they also offer it in FRP... I have no idea.

Unfortunately ladies and gents, there is no grill info. I'll take another look, however, I do remember specifically looking for grill info and not finding any.

"Front Rip Spoiler" ? Anyone else find that funny? Don't know if it's intentional or not, but lip spoiler sounds more appropriate. Anyone seen http://www.engrish.com

The reason why it's expensive is it's actually laid by Kstyleking under the minatomirai name. Kstyleking composites are quite expensive and good.

Now that you mention it, looking at the pic in my magazine, I can see the "Kstyleking" logo on the front lip (in front of the rotor symbol) and on the side skirts (behind the rear doors).

No grill info. It wasn't listed on the site. I personally think it's a waste of money for something inferior in looks. Do the oil cooler/ front grill mod that Tamas did and it looks cleaner and costs less. His doesn't look like an insert like this one. His fills the entire space with grill work. :D
