I'm lovin the side veiws, Front end is Killer. "Insert awkward moment here," Maybe you could paint the bottom part of the bumper black.

I agree with most of the comments here - looks sweet.

I looked around LOTS before placing my order for these side skirts, I think they are the best that anyone has produced so far for the 8.

Never liked the back end, just a bit too much for me - just got the standard rear under-deflector, and going to get the rear black section painted grey to match.

Gone for the INGs front bumper instead of this one...

Looking great though now that its all painted...

Sondance- did you have to shave a little off your side skirts so it won't rub your doors and mess up your paint? That's what my body shop is telling me I have to do, with mine.

Have to agree with black, very good photoshop work too, just a little overdone, the blackened part should be just the lower flares just under the doorline mark there if you noticed. Clearer to see on the plain side view pic.

Check out the rx8 anniversary event pic posted by East Moon...
They have an RX with veilside too, with blackened diffuser too.

About your front part... did you do something to extend that "chin" on the front body? I didnt remember veilside2 having so long a chin, it looks kinda ricey...
If you see the 5th pic on that thread I mentioned it shows the Bodykit's front end which I think looks great...
BTW that is the Japanese Veilside of course, I dont know if Veilside USA did something to change it... but that chin is too big IMHO.

Sounds like they went really thick with the paint. How many layers did they spray there?

The 5th pic down is the INGS kit. The 1st and 2nd pic are the Veilside kit.

Sorry, been really busy lately with work and everything. The Side Skirts does scrap like a bitch.. against the doors when I close them. My guy said he could hammer it down a little or shave it for me, but i decided not to do any of that. the paint that comes off isn't noticable at all. Now i just have to wait for my carbon fiber hood and wing -_-
