What's up guys...

I installed the MS sideskirts this past weekend, and I'm really happy with the look. Even though it's not a perfect match, the front and rear Appearance Package pieces actually look really good with the MS sides. I do plan to put on the MS front before the Summer, but in the meantime I can definitely live with the way it is.

I snapped a few pics this morning!

 

FN sweet dude ~~~ !!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Looks good. I do agree that the front air dam goes well with the MS sides but the rear is lacking something. Nice work though.

 

Looks good. I just put the appearance package side flares on, but at some point in the not-too-near future, I might switch to those, if anyone still has them in Titanium at that point.

 

They look nice, I was thinking of the same configuration also because i'm not really a big fan of the MS spoiler and front lip. Where did you get the sideskirts from and how much if you don't mind me asking?

 

Thanks for the positive comments! I do agree that the rear flares are the weakest link, so to speak. They're just not as aggressive as the MS sides, or even the air dam. Maybe I'll go for the MS rear diffuser too.


I bought them from OnlineMazdaParts.com, the same place I got my MS exhaust. Great customer service and very friendly! For some reason I feel weird about posting the price, but you can find all the info here!


Does anyone think my car looks slightly lowered? I used to have a larger wheel gap in the front, but now it looks level with the rear. Maybe I'm just imagining it. I do have a set of Tein H-techs still in the box and I'm trying to decide if I want to lower the car at all. I bought the H-techs because it had the smallest increase in spring rate and lowered the car more in the front than in the rear -- to get rid of that larger front gap. Decisions, decisions...

 

Wow, seems like forever now that my car used to look like that. Looks good though, congrats!

 

nice looks awesome. !

 

Nice, that is what i want to do, front lip, ms sides and either the rear areo flares or possible the ings+1 rear. Good job.

 

It's a great look. Always loved the combo since I saw r0tor and IAMDANOMITE's cars.

 

It would probably look better if you go with the rear aero flares. Ings rear will only flow with other aftermarket side skirts.

 

very clean !

 

Well, I've had the car less than a year, and I'm slowly changing things. Give me another year and it should look even better! Maybe some new Volk wheels in the near future??

Thanks again for the comments guys.

 

Nice and clean...plan on lowering your car?

 

niiiice...MD represent!

 

Yeah, I actually bought some Tein H-techs a few weeks ago. After installing the MS skirts I'm not sure I want to go any lower for fear that I'll start scraping on driveways and such. Still making up my mind about that.

Yeah dude! I've yet to meet any other MD 8 owners. I would really like to get a meet going some time in the Spring and check out the other rides around here.

 

we usually meet up at the fuddrucker's in columbia. just keep your eyes open. with all this nice weather we're having, we should have one pretty soon. OR...we can just organize our own little meet.

 

i have Tein S-Techs with the appearance package and MS sides...no problems here. not even the crappy roads on Rt. 50 down here in Annapolis do any harm.

 

lol I remember that... it came a long way. It's a good look...

 

I like the look, I want to do the same, and yours is the first Ti I have seen like this. Makes me happy that it looks good. I just worry about speed bumps, I already come very close to scraping when negotiating them.

 

yea... i happen to think its a good look as well

 

I'd like to check out that look in person on a ti. I've been looking for some appearance mods to do. I can't swing a full MS body kit now, but I could probably do the side skirts.

 

Very clean looking 8 you have there. I am loving the skirts. Will look even better when you complement it with the full kit or whatever other body parts you decide to add. Congrats.

 

Car looks good, needs a lower though. You should be fine installing those H-techs.

 

I think it matches just fine. Looks great.

Definitely needs a drop though.
