Okay, where do I find this park bench though? I've looked, and can't seem to find any links or anything to it. P.S. where do I get another bolt to the bracket? Lol. Lowe's?

It actually came for free with an ait veilside replica kit. I only paid $300, for the front bumper, back bumper, side skirts, AND spoiler. plus. it doesn't seem too universal. It fits the rx-8's curves perfectly.?

ehhhh.....

If you're gonna get one of these... at least look at the APR wings.. they're a bit more functional then most of the other wings out there. At the very least they use CFD to test em.

Hey Zumn,

Just curious, what the hell are you talking about?????

I sold an authentic Veilside front bumper a few months back and met up in person with the buyer.

its adjustablle. You can raise/lower each side(front/back/left/right) like 5 notches. theres two bolts, and like five holes to a bolt. but this'll have to wait until i get back from iraq anyways.

please explain how a dead straight spoiler follows the curves of an RX8 perfectly......

are you talking about the brackets that can be shaped with any belt sander to follow the lines of any vehicle perfectly for about 3 minutes of your time?

Aha. I see where the problem lies. The picture I took did not show the spoiler properly. The spoiler itself, if you are looking down on the car from the sky...is not dead straight. {====}<<<<NO! It curves fit the curves of the rx8 perfectly.

this resembles the spoiler a bit more:
