they don't do parts. They are simply garage man, with reasonably low rate.
Not sure the quality of jobs... you see I never see a garage man work before they let me watch what is going on.
People have said they are a bit rough.... and for "off record" he hates Mazda.

yeah i agree with u, 10 yrs later, standard 8 will be much more worthy than a modified 8. But 9100 rpm still love to mod his car~~~haha
ppl still like to mods their car....

Richie,
how come there is a slight misalignment in the top part of the front bumper? It does not seems to have a equal gap all the way and the angle from the bonnet to the kit is awfully sharp ... and remind me of my stupid garage at present.

Good on you for having some fun with the thing but I would rip that front dam off within about 10 minutes on some of the roads I drive on and forget about the average driveway.
I've also found that many of these kits just create unnecessary drag and too much down force that robs the car of performance and adjustability in normal road driving.
Of course if you intend to race the thing on a track some of it might be worthwhile. Is the wing adjustable?
Guess it's a case of looks v functionality for most of us.
