Yay or Nay?

First time i've posted pictures of her after the parts have gone on

Im very happy with how shes looking, check my signature for the mod list.

Im currently shopping for some MS sideskirts and hopefully the RB intake in a few months.

Also looking to sell these Buddyclubs and maybe move on to something else :p

Lemme know what you guys think.

Thanks :D

Definately needs the side skirts as the nose peice sit way too low compared to the side of the car.
Are you going to paint the hood to match?

Other then that, it looks like the install is well done.

I like it, so I give it a yay. It looks front heavy since you've still got the stock rear fender, but it's clean nonetheless.

BTW, I was about to ask if you're planning on installing side strakes, but I think your car might actually look better without them...

Do you have the real R Magic eyelids or the ones from EVO-R? I'm thinking of getting some eyelids, but haven't decided yet.

BIU nice, I voted Yay...

I love the look of the RX8 stock and I would like a front fender like yours BUT, do they make one a little more conservative...that sticks out a little less?

A little less front end, with some side skirts and MAYBE a little bit in the back...is the perfect formula for me.

Nice Pics...

Yes thats exactly the "clean" look that im going for Nothing too agressive nothing TF2F lol

Thats why i opted for the App. Pack. rear aero flares to give it that subtle look.

You can always try the KS Auto Burnout lip which is abit less agressive as the Veilside lip that i have.

Will be spot on when the skirts are added.

Don't like the V1 lip on any other colours, but really suits the black. If it were mine I'd paint the hood (just don't like the CF look) especially with the black.

To me the front end looks out of proportion with the rest of the body. I guess if you finish the set and get side skirts, it'll balance out. The CF hood looks alright and not overly done.
