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.

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,,,

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.

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.

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.
