Vicrez?

There is a body kit company called VICREZ. I have never heard of it. It is made out of urethane. I was wondering if any one of you tried it and can give us a feedback on the fitment. Thanks in advance.

Bump. I'm curious as well. Searched on the net but didn't find reviews about them.

That's pretty telling in and of itself, don't you think?

I talked to them and they claimed 100% refund if I was unhappy with fitment... Who knows if it would actually be that easy tho

Well it appears the car they use as an example has an authentic Mazdaspeed front bumper, not their own bumper so that says a lot.

My guess is that is is just more cheap replica junk.

So then why not use a picture of your product installed rather than using a picture with what appears to be a real authentic Mazdaspeed bumper?

As for fiberglass, FRP, Metton, etc. at least they can be worked if fitment adjustments are needed. If an ABS bumper doesn't fit you are screwed for the most part.

I mentioned these guys in the Mazdaspeed kit alternative thread as well sinceI was curious about them possibly being a viable alternative to the Mazdaspeed kit. They show their urethane stuff getting run over by a truck and not breaking, which is cool I guess, but it seems that the price of that durability is additional weight, even over the OEM plastics. As far as fitment goes, yeah I saw they guarantee their fitment, but if it needs massaging how much can the urethane like that actually be worked to make fit? I really just wish Mazda never stopped production of the real kit. It really transforms the RX-8 and is the cleanest body kit out there IMO.

RX-8 owners are cheap, there is no market for an aero kit that cost more than the average RX-8 does.

It's hard say for sure from the photos, but that doesn't look bad. What are your thoughts on it?
