because veilside makes rice kits, and the rx8 doesn't accept those.

although personally, i think the only good-looking body kit is the one from mazdaspeed.

thats an ugly *** kit plus its fiberglass, will crack at some point, doesn't take much for it to do that either. this is my roommate's integra the kit cracked in different places after small stuff like taking a speed bump too fast
