I looked @ the corkscrew, its the skirts I dislike.
@ moment looking @ the Accolade C-Spec body kit. Have a lot of metal work inside going on, dash out, electrical out...may be pulling driveline, got an offer on it, and then get to do an eng swap too. :-) theni won't want to sell

 

You are the first person Ive ever known who doesnt want sideskirts with an aftermarket front bumper I mean I see your point, but I dont think you realise what it will look like?

 

When did I say no to skirts? If I did misspeak, sorry. There must be skirts, but I want ones that mold into the doorline, not ones that look like they were added on.
But they must flow with the front, rear.
I want skirts, but clean, good flowing lines.
Looking @ the cspec,

 

That's where I got that you didn't want side skirts. There is a thread somewhere around here with a picture that has all or most of the bodykits in a collage.

 

Oh, this... meant not the 'walmart' look. Those that are square looking, and 'stick' onto lower rocker, and don't flow with the lines. I want something that will not pull attention from top, but add to its appeal.
The whole body kit needs to be clean, or I will find another, ease of fitment would be nice too

 

I would say R3 skirts would work with either a MAzdaspeed front or maybe even a Racing Beat? I love the look of those sides myself, I have the original Mazdaspeed on mine now and I don't like the front of them, but they fit well and flow with my bumper so I've kept them, if I were to change the R3 or maybe the Autoexe would be my next choice.
The racing beat stuff is very mild, almost looks factory, it's good quality and not too terribly expensive compared to the jdm stuff. I would definitely not waste time on knock off or non-authentic stuff as you'll be consumed with trying to get it to fit right, it'll come out looking like ***, and you'll have wasted time/labor/$$ that could be spent on other parts of the build just to make a half *** kit look legit.

here's the R3, I dig the front as well but you'd have to do fenders and everything to make it fit right, although an R3 vert would definitely be pure sex lol

 

I like the R3 look a lot, clean. Where can I get a package of front? Highly considering dropping in a stockish 05 Stang V8,stick. Have an offer for the rotary/autostick, would be more fun w 400hp, and tire shreading torque

 

Sorry... Too much in one head to get all of it out in words correctly.

Yes I want a full kit, rear bumper isn't that bad, but want it to match.
The skirts are a must, but must be clean, blend in. Used to match up pieces a lot, but if I find one I like. I'm ready to order it.

Haven't seen the collage, will look. Figured w knowledgable RX8 guys here, ya'll would have good opinions.... so far the R3 is the cleanest

 

and the most expensive

 

Been on phone w Mazda Comp tryn to see about an R3 front...... piece of cake except that each headlight will be a lil over a grand. The rest is affordable. Will have to see what transpiers.

 

Its all in the lights....expensive, and for the price not worth it....to me

 

Autoexe front looks similar but retains headlights and fenders.

 

Looking @ the Extreme dimensions M1....what do ya'll think? May not change the rear, may leave stock,
Like the front end though

 

That and the SE 03C. Like that, but the lines don't flow, and not fond of the skirts.... rrrrrrrr want to get it ordered... choices

 

If I order the. SE03C, Where is best to get from, and what else with it besides fogs? Thanx
Want to order one tomorrow or Monday @ latest.
If I go Mazdaspeed, which is the best I think, does it have a long delivery time too? Is there anyone here who can help get it cheaper. Through MazdaComp, I think is only way for less

 

Extreme Dimensions is absolute ****. Autoexe stuff is best through either japanparts.com or mazmart. I was meaning more like this one. https://www.rx8club.com/showpost.php...postcount=1774 and https://www.rx8club.com/showpost.php...postcount=1638

Mazdaspeed isn't made anymore and you have to get lucky. There are some primer'd ones left over but not many prepainted.

 

I could deal with that front, but not would want to swap in differnt skirts...
Thanx for info, helps a lot. Not wanting anything crappy on this ride.

 

Ordered a front, sides last night... waiting on tubing for cage this week. TEXAS race this weekend

 

I actually have an extra Mazdasoeed bumper at my fiend's shop, it is damaged (torn from a dumbass backing into me at a stoplight...yes...a stoplight...backing into me...ugh) but I'd be willing to sell it. If anyone is interested, it's just sitting on a shelf not being used right now.

extreme dimensions is the absolute worst **** out there, not only do their kits suck, but they ultra fail at customer service, the only reason they're in business is all the cheap honda guys eat up their utter crap and they sponsor a lot of stuff and throw their name around, but they're still completely 10000% awful. I wouldn't buy their crap with someone I didn't like's money, I wouldn't even take it for free, hell, I wouldn't even accept a sponsorship from them and they offered it to me for Sema 2 years ago, as well as a friend of mine with a Civic Si.

 

Hit me up, asap...... craigztoyz04@yahoo.com

 

Lol@ Canary

 

Ya, can't find a happy e.d. customer.

Ordered a new mazdaspeed, will see if they have it to ship out, Knight skirts, like the flow, look. I like the stock rear, will do some mods, but overall, unless front is back ordered, good to go... if MS isn't shipped, will go autoexe.

 

In middle of B-pillar Rollbar, and moving the upper door latches into the door to latch to rollbar. All is going well. It is taking a backseat to customer cars @ moment, but good progress. @ moment stock eng is still in it, not sure if swapping or not. Everyone who sees it @ the shop likes the lines.

Im guessing this project got scrapped? I should call them and see what ended up with it. Was interesting to say the least, I wouldn't want it done to mine.
