No leather no sunroof. Type-S is the 6-port engine with 6-speed manual. There's the base 4-port manual and auto and the Type-E (I think) which is the auto with bigger rims, etc.

i like the front and rear bumper, the wing and side skirts are a little much. the front has been given a lot more flavor.

i totally agree the front end is way too much. i love the back and the sides are okay. i probably get the entire kit and replace the front end with rmagic

I wasn't sure how this thing was going to look when they were prototyping it, but I rather like it now that it is all fleshed out. Not a fan of the wing. Might have to see it in person to make a decision, like I did with the Veilside. But, on a whole, I'm a fan... but I was also in love with their Supra kit.

WAY too over the top for me. What ever happened to understated?
They left understated on the 6... The rx8 in stock form isn't even in the same zipcode as understated..

I agree.. the wing is too much.. thinking I might photoshop up a non-wing pic to get the gist of it

I *think* that nose is a Veilside Celica Nose, grafted onto the 8. It actually looks ok on the Celica, I was thinking of getting it for my 190 before I fell for the 8!

Good thing Ab-Flug decided to update their webpage (finally). Personally, I think it looks pretty damn good sans the wing. Ab-Flug is known for making pretty wild bodykits, so I don't expect them to change for the RX-8.

I tend to agree, abflug in my opinion has always been indicative of a JZ. Their kits are extremely well built, just too extreme for my taste...To each his own.

I like the quad exhaust tips, but the rest is waaaaaaaaaaaaay too much.

I suppose they will still sell heaps of the kit since every ricer with a Civic is gonna try to custom fit it to their car.
