R Magic Wide Body Kit

Hi guys,

I am really keen on the look of the R Magic wide body kit (pic attached) but not so much on the "wide" part

Does anyone known of any other kits on the market with a similar look?

There is a RE Amemiya kit that is close, well sort of but wanted to see if anyone knew of any other options.

Thanks in advance!

Maz

The closest body kit that I've seen is this one.. But, I forgot the name of the company that makes them.

Thanks guys!

I was on the same train of thought...

I think I have settled on the vertex lang front and sides with the fabulous rear the only thing which is a tad annoying is that the vertex kit is fibreglass but I guess ya cant win em all.

I didnt realise there was so much to think about when chosing a kit! looks, combinations, material, availability, cost, fitment lets hope I am at the end of my journey

The yellow panspeed is different than this one. The white one is from 2003 or so. I think the yellow one is newer. Here is a picture of the other kit:

i love the looks of the widebody for the rx8, but i wish the rear bumper was different, i have custom exhaust, and the muffler ports on the rear bumper are for duel. i might find a way to put the MS rear bumper with the widebody. just do a little bit of molding and what not.

but its a great looking kit without the decals! ahhaha

Here are better pics of the R-Magic and the Vertex Lang, which is probably the closest.

And here is some Panspeed which is also a widebody, its not the 1870mm wider like the RMagic isbut 20mm should suffice,,,,
