Painted Series 2 Body Kits

Anyone know any good vendors or websites to purchase series 2 body kits that come painted in factory colors?

Does the mazdaspeed nose fit the series 2? It looks like the fog lights won't be functional.

Yes there are some factory OE painted accessories still available for the RX-8 from Mazda Dealers or forum Vendors here like Paul at Mazmart, most are

for Series 1, but many will still fit Series 2...and naturally depends on the colour of your paint.

Unfortunately after looking it appears Mazda USA has remove MY 2008 (series 1) reference info for Accessories, you will need to contact a dealer.

Not certain about MS Fronts, AFAIK there are issue with Headlamp fit and finish when using an S1 front MS nose on an S2.

Things like Side Deflectors, Mud Flaps or Splash Shields will fit, provided you don't have R3 and or Side Skirts.

I found a PDF Accessory Brochure from Canada, it has Part Numbers/Pics etc.

I recall a member looked into a MS nose for their S2...in here.

S1 mazdaspeed doesnt fit on to a S2, the headlights are different along with not having sidemarkers, i made a post about it. Its about 800-1500 to get it done using a replica front bumper. I personally feel like the s1 mazdaspeed looks hot on a S2. more than on a S1. when i had a S2 i wanted to do it, that or the autoexe. both sexy.

whats involved...

paying for the bumper
paying for shipping the bumper
paying to fit the bumper
paying to paint the bumper

The Aussie RX-8 SP is a Series 1 car with S2 Front Fenders/Lights, then the MS modded front Bumper...at the areas where there is obviously a difference between Series.....lights.

I know of no pre-painted front nose Bumpers.

It says MS custom in the ad, my guess is it is a M'Z bumper.

You could get $500.00 easy for it, probably more if it is mint.
