more pics

 

and

 

then

 

finally

 

nice pics mike, the ms kit actually looks pretty good on sunlight silver!

 

Which is why I plan on getting it when I get my SS 8!

 

the huge black wing on the SS rx8 is hidious!

 

I agree with JH.

 

Thats the tamest I've seen the Veilside look, doesn't half look bad at all! But with everyone on the wing - OTT!

 

damn everytime i look at that black on black on black... those volks make me drool! if only i had the money... if onlY!

 

Yeah, that has to be one of the worst looking spoilers I have ever seen. Definitely doens't belong on the 8!

 

That wing has to weigh a good 10-15lbs. I think it gets the award for largest wing on an rx-8. Nice looking car though...

 

seriously those pics make the wing look bigger than it really is in person. although its not really my style, i guess if i had a more "extreme" kit on, a lip spoiler wouldnt look right on it either. the kit makes the car bigger in person and the wing didnt look too big on it because of that

 

There should be a law against putting stupid spoilers like that on a car....

 

I wonder if the manufacturers will ever try to put an end to the outlandish upgrades people do to their cars. If you think about it, it diminishes the cars respectability in the eyes of the general public. If there is a particular model of car that always gets overdone, does it make non-tuner types not want the car because of the stereotype that it would carry. Right now they seem to cater to it, but honestly I had to weigh that stereotype before I bought my RX-8.

Just a thought. Any opinions?

BTW, as you might guess, I think that wing is just stupid looking! Way to ruin a great car!

 

RX22, I don't see that happening. In fact, look at what the factories are doing. They're releasing cars with many of the aftermarket add-ons already installed, or available afterwards. They're making more cash off the cars with the mods. Also while you might see rice, they see a niche market

 

I agree w/ you I was just wondering if they would start considering the non-rice market. Just a thought.

 

What are the names of the 2 different sets of rims?

 

LOL! Sorry for offending anyone with my wing and apologies for taking so long to post these up! If you own it, claim it!

 

 

And I'll throw mine in again to see if I can stir up the hornet's nest once 'gain...

 

nice ride shawrf... love the kit

 

The Veilside definitely looks better in person... the hood looked good too. Like Shawrf1 said, the wing was the only thing that he would consider "ricey".. but that wasn't his choice when it was installed... sponsorship and junk.

Can't wait for 7stock
