NRF creating new Body Kit for Series II RX-8
 
Some of you may have seen this NRF photoshop concept posted in either the TAS 2010 thread or the Super Autobacs thread in the RX-8 Multimedia/Gallery section. But, here is the actual design so far.. I'll keep you guys posted on further details and updates!

hmmm I like it....not to big of a smile :lol:

JinDesu 02-01-2010 09:27 AM

The front bumper looks like a tamer version of the NRF kit for the SI. The front fenders/sideskirts/rear fenders are a little more insane lol...

mscamp02 02-01-2010 09:30 AM

^maybe those will just stay in concept and not get to crazy

JinDesu 02-01-2010 10:06 AM

Dunno - some people will like them, no doubt lol

Just been keeping up with these Japanese websites for years, so I'm always, actively checking their sites, blog, etc. You can check NRF's blog site, keep up with them on there, or just keep checking in on this thread, and I'll keep you guys updated.

interesting... hoping the conversion looks good

rotoryfan1991 03-04-2010 06:11 PM

Dude.
PLEASE dont EVER develop those sideskirts...
I really dont want to see a bunch of rx8's running around with eclipse ricer kits..
:( this is a sad day for rx-8s.

Silverisk8 03-06-2010 03:01 PM

50/50 rating it's kind of hard cause it does look like that eclipse from fast furious ( nothing new )

Razz1 03-06-2010 03:25 PM

umm.. interesting butt at 150 new car sales / month x (10%, potential market) x your share of market = .20%

Butt really it should be 150x.03x.1 = .45 kits per month in sales volume

Not worth the investment as a business.

Rotr8 03-15-2010 07:15 PM

the front isnt all that bad, guarantee they sell some, but those sides are a whole nother story, what a waste,,,

ЯX-8 03-15-2010 08:06 PM

The front is not bad at all, I have to agree with you on that. I would like to see it painted, I bet it would look 10x better.

ЯX-8 03-16-2010 03:28 AM

Bump! They also started work on the rear bumper..

http://img535.imageshack.us/img535/7033/0131d.jpg

pdxhak 03-16-2010 08:51 AM

Wonder why they are using a S1 rear for a S2?

Rotr8 03-16-2010 10:30 AM

that is actually an SII rear bumper, but SI taillights,,, but still just as curious

pdxhak 03-16-2010 11:59 AM

So they are modifying the S2 bumper for the S1 car then?

Rotr8 03-16-2010 02:21 PM

not quit sure, it has SII headlights and SI tails, probably started off with some of thier SI wide fenders, modded them for the SII then created the bumper off that, then mated an SII rear bumper to an SI just to have an armeture to hang on,,,

ЯX-8 03-16-2010 08:30 PM

They are using their Series I project car, and converting it to a Series II. I'm sure once they finish the kit, they'll add some 09+ tail lights. Especially, since the Series I tail lights leave a huge gap with the 09+ bumper.

If only they made that front for S1 cars... :yumyum:

ЯX-8 03-17-2010 06:24 PM

Bump! Here's a piece from the rear side skirt..

http://img214.imageshack.us/img214/8818/0131v.jpg

Rotr8 03-17-2010 06:59 PM

so thats the piece that gets slapped on the rear door??? :icon_no2::icon_no2::icon_no2:

ЯX-8 04-03-2010 02:24 AM

Bump! Here's how it's looking so far.

http://img138.imageshack.us/img138/6394/0481.jpg

Rotr8 04-03-2010 09:56 AM

I think the only thing thats really all that hideous about the kit is the door panel portion. Heres a PS of it without the door panel piece.

Fate710 04-03-2010 01:33 PM

Without the door panel piece, it looks really good.

The fenders look out of place, like the rear door aero "flares". I actually like the fenders but they don't flow with the rest of the car lines, they make the rx8 look like 2 cars welded together.

where can you buy this body kit?
