Question The new 8?

I cant make anything out on this page on my pc. So I dont know if this is a repost or not but could this be the "new face lift" or is it just a new kit?
LINK! and LINK!

Looks alright.. not great.. but I think its just a Kit and not the Face Lift we keep hearing about now. Although I'm curious as to what it is gonna look like I'm hoping new headlights and front atleast. Somethink akin to the Mazda6 maybe hehe

I am just guessing that there wold be led lights in the back. you know a face left does not have to be just the front. bmws added leds after the face left from the back. i am not buying untill they confirm about the new rx rather than just a faceleft

That site's been around for quite a while actually, not the facelifted 8, but an interesting kit. Not overly aggressive like some, kind of looks like an OEM alternative.

That front end looks nice- I always imagined the car with a more Ferrari-like oval shaped grill opening. Nicely done, not ricey or gaudy.

Yeah I don't really like the way the nose tapers inside. The lines make it look like an F1 car got smushed/front nose cut off.

That's a kit. And a real nice looking one.

Veilside toned down. Real sweet front bumper.

It's a D-Techinque kit. They are a Mazda Tuner in Japan and have body kits for the Miata as well.

100% not the new 8.

We won't see a new RX until 2010 or 2011 when the Renesis 2 is coming out. 2008 will be the facelift.

I wish I could tell you where to get this kit but I can't. I can only suggest that you contact some fourm venders and ask if they can get there hads on it, like Lazi. He might.
