full ms kit would be nice, but just the ms rear spoiler will look good (oem ms kit can be expensive buying all parts at once).

I personally don't recommend lowering the car and going with a kit like MS. The front is already low to the ground...

I'd put the biggest park bench I could find with 24" spinners.

Then get the ABFLUG kit.

Then I'd be laughing, as it's your car.

Mu ha ha................

I actually also have a white 8 and in a week or 2 will be putting on the buddy club front bumper and side skirts. Probably going to add the ms replica wing too eventually. I haven't looking into rim's too much yet, so I can't help you there. I'd still like to see someone get the R-Magic front bumper in white. But everyone else seems to also love the RE-Amemiya front bumper (with or without the fogs).

i like this area, rebadge your car so that you can add an S between R and X and take out the 8.

1st two things you should do.

exhaust (stock tips are so small and sound is so quiet)
lower (drop that sucker an inch with MS suspension or go custom w/ coilovers)

grenade front, mint blue sides, veilside version 1 or D1-GT rear to go with the agressive front and sides, mazdaspeed spoiler, and volk LE28N in a dark color ( black, anthracite, gunmetal, etc.. ). also would do a full debadge and tint headlights + taillights ( not too dark, perhaps a 38% tint ). OH YEAH, clear corners and ganador mirrors.
