you need either a plastic undertray or a metal one, your rad isnt getting a lot of airflow.

i suggest painting the cf eyelids the bodycolor, but thats just my opinion.
clear sidemarkers would be nice too.

What brand replica mazdaspeed kit is that? fitment is pretty good.

do you scrape alot at that ride height with the mazdaspeed kit? Im at that same height and thinking about getting a replica.

Yea I know :/ Im getting one soon.
I'm getting clear side markers as well.
Its an extreme dimension body kit, I bought off of eBay for $300, but it had some shitty fitment lol
And no I don't scrape, I'm used to riding low lol I usually re-route everywhere I go to avoid pot hole and bumps lol

Nice fitment on the wheels, nice tuck with the 527's. I'll take a stab at it and say 18x9.75 w/245/40's.

That was my second choice, I knew they weren't 255's but look to be about the same height as mine, nice rolling shot, I wish I had somebody to do one.

All I see is an rx8 filled with cheap replica parts and a crappy intake. Waste of internet space.

Because you wrote about your car in a public forum and i'm entitled to express my opinion.
Since I love the rx8 as a platform it deeply saddens me to see so many poorly built cars being exposed to the public and presented as if they were cool.
