It depends on your taste. If you prefer the aggressive look then veilside or vertex may be up your alley. You may also want to take a look at mazdaspeed however, it will cost you. You can look through the multimedia thread to see the different set up of each kit. You may also want to consider fitment as well. The authentic kits dont have problems with fitment but there has been numerous cases in which replicas cause problems.

Mazdaspeed is a good route for several reasons. It's OEM, which means perfect fit, paint, and insurance coverage.

On the other hand, the Mazdaspeed bodykit is very common now. My second choice would be the INGS+1 kit or the Rmagic front lip.

if you like the rest of the veilside kit why not get it and get a different rear?

Just make sure whatever combination you choose flows well with the car. Otherwise it may look a bit tacky.

There is a new kit out by autoexe that looks pretty good. Incorporates the 09 fog lights into it. In the photo, it's at the top and Mazdaspeed at the bottom.
