New FEED Afflux spoiler for rx8

spotted this on the advan website. When translated from Japanese using google chrome it says its a "FEED Su-flux Aflac rear spoiler" But knowing what we know its most likely FEED Afflux rear spoiler.

I look on Feed's website and didnt find anything so maybe it is a new product. It looks alot like the GTO wing people put on their rx8. Id be interested without the risers.

Im cross posting this in the S1 exterior section as well, I believe the holes may be different for the S1 but its still something a S1 owner can consider.

I love their new hood D: Its my favorite.. How come you dont like it?

I especially like how it deletes the repetitive rotary triangle on the hood.

because it deletes it by putting a horrible trapezoidal shape on the hood, if you want to delete the rotor shape go with the AutoExe SE02

Whats wrong the the OE Rotor shape Hood (or Bonnet)?..

One of the design elements I love about the 8....it says ROTARY!

Some trivia...the current NC MX-5 Miata (like mine) as a rectangular Hood Bulge shape which represents the size of the cylinder head, valve cover (for a 'Banger Engine').

i believe they all had that on the hood of the miatas, i recall seeing a gen1 miata with a little bulge.

anyway, i still love the feed hood and the Rmagic hood.

s2 owners are alot more conservative when it comes to modding their car ive found.

Maybe its the lack of aftermarket for the s2 and when a aftermarket part becomes available they get scared and hump the oem tree.

Maybe they feel as though modding your car is a S1 style (aka a lesser cheaper vehicle than youre s2) and dont want to be associated with a lesser vehicle.

Or maybe they just like %100 oem things.

ive tried to post a few things in the exterior section that isnt oem and everyone calls it rice or hideous. Maybe it is just a different age range of owners.

who knows lol

I like that spoiler. It's probably expensive though.

I'm pretty sure us s2 owners are just scared to modify our cars, since almost everything is kind of uncharted territory for us.
