Talking 3 cars

Even Japan is rare goods.
At present, the cars which this body kit is put on are only three cars including the demonstration car.
I am the first user. :D

Can anyone confirm for me that the side mirrors will still accept the puddle lights? If it can, then I will consider getting the whole kit. Thanks

I don't get it. From their website it is about half the price of a real MS kit. Why does everyone think it is so expensive.

Also it's cheaper since it's not the same material as True MS kit parts... Most kits are still Fiberglass or hybrid fiberglass :P

What is hybrid fiberglass? What do they mix with?

Ings+1 kit has it too and they said they can twist it 90 degree before cracking it - so in other words they are really flexible.

Because it's flexible, doesn't mean it's quality... I would still prefer Mazda factory parts if I had a choice. The way I look at it is this.. Based on US prices.

Ings Hybrid Aero Full kit - 2100.
Mazdaspeed REAL Full kit - 2700.

Ings needs paint... add another 600-700
MS, perfect factory paint, - 0

In the end... hmm...

But if the Ings was say 1500 + 600... then ya, it would be ok. But as of right now, it's just not worth it... not when you can get supremo quality MS kit.
