Funny how all of you argue, we all know the true color of a sports car is RED. IMO, blue, silver,that fugly green they first release, titanium gray, and yes dont forget the old shinka. look like every other car color out there.


P.S. i mentioned the shinka because it looks black for far...

I prefer the stock look -1.5", the worst look is the gayero things in front of the rear wheel wells.

I agree with the OP. I like the stock look a lot, with a spoiler too. The only kits I'd consider is the autobahn or the mazdaspeed 2 (if that's ever coming out). The original mazdaspeed doesn't look so good in red for some reason.

the stock 8 has always seemed incomplete to me. because it rounds off near the bottom it makes it look obnoxiously high. appearance package adds that much needed ground effect to the stock body.

I like everything in the appearance package except the front lip. Just doesn't seem to 'fit in' with the rest of the car.

im with swoope. the front needs most of the work because it rounds at the corners while the middle is empty. most of the ground effect comes outta the front air damn. side aero flares shoulda been made all the way like sideskirts.

I think if you go with the Mazdaspeed kit, you should get atleast 19"s or 20"s. The bigger kit makes the stock 18"s look too small. That's just me though.

Stock 18s look fine with the MS kit. MS 18" wheel, though, is perfect with the MS kit.
