PANSPEED Body kit

I dont think I ever posted this up over here, so here it is.

The PANSPEED body kit, I got these pics hummmm 3-4 months ago I think. Wish there were some better pics, there was a typhoon and I was sick as hell.

it looks terrible... the front duct opening (which is obviously for a rad-sized intercooler) likens itself to some of the (rather hideous) FC's which owners have butchered with a sabre saw, cutting an enormous square opening in the front to fully expose their intercooler... why they do things like this, in this manner, is completely beyond me.

further, those side skirts weigh the car down visually far far too much (like big *** sausages or something), and the wing is just another *shrug* i-don't-like-it ugly wing.

I didn't even notice the wing (surprisingly) until it was pointed out. The front doesn't mesh well with the rest of the body. the skirts are okay, but they do weigh the car down visually. Pix of the back with the girl woulda been fine.

damn you guys have X-ray vision. I saw it in person and I dont remember the front bumper looking bad at all. I wouldnt say anything about the front though since you cant see it as a whole. It does look a little square with IMHO wouldnt fit the RX8, but when I saw it it looked good as far as I remember.

I will get some pics.

djmano, I would love to answer your question, but im not yet a sponsor, so I cant tell you that here.

I will be a sponsor very soon, I just have some stuff going on right now.

I would agree, I like the kit. I dont remmeber it much as the pics, were I think about 4 months ago, but of what I remember I liked it.

there are a few pictures of this car running around in the last couple months of option 2 magazine........if i showed you guys those pics, im sure you'd all change your minds.

the angles that jt gave are kinda bad, not knocking his photos at all but you cant really see the whole kit. believe me, the panspeed rx8 is probably my favorite one out there right now right behind RE Ameniya.
