Thanks for you guys comment...
I was think about getting the mazdaspeed ones
or this lip too...↓ I saw it once and i loved it...but they told me that is hard to install , you have to cut your lip and your bumper to install it @__@



I also like the lip that "nuke0907" has on his beautiful blue 8

Really great car and pics. If you worry about nose being too low get some not so low front bumper like knightsports or revolution. And mazdaspeed front is a little bit played out.

What are your impression of the EBC Yellows Front and the EBC Reds in the rear?

Fwiw The have to agree with Noble Wolf. The MS front is a lilltte played out. Because it's so darn good looking.

I'm happy with the EBC Yellow Front and Red rear, with the EBC rotors, I think is a good combo, but u gotta use higher level brake fluid, coz on the track, I didnt change the brake fluid, my break didnt get over heat but my break fluid ~"~
Now i'm using the EBC combos with the stoptech Stainless Brake lines for street and i'm happy with it EBC's brake duct are easy to clean, thats a +

for the track, i change the front peds to Porterfield, they are amazing, but not good for daily use, scream with u almost stop and so much brake duct

JRX also has a near exact replica that will be many of the re-a style cf lip/canards you see running around socal. I believe they charge something along the lines of $500 installed?...

The car's looking good!

Thanks !!!!
$500 Installed .....Sounds yummy !!!

my under car braces always touch the ground and the speed bump after i got the coilovers T__T

I think I need to adjust my 8 a bit higher if I decided to get the CF lip

Looks great... I think a mspeed front would look excellent on your car.

Just wondering, any plans to get a matching passenger racing seat? I personally hate the look of mismatched front seats but I understand the rationale.
