Auto-Bahn Kit... In Silver This time, Thanks Sbthew!
Here's a preview, excuse the dirt, and crappy pix... it was going to rain today, so I passed on washing the car. The front bumper is slightly lower than I had wished... imagine if the car was dropped, it would sit LOW.
Thanks to Sbthew, Mobworks, and Alex & Robert over at Browning Mazda Dealership. I'm not sure if I would ever have the patience again to wait for this silly kit.. oh wells.
Gotta wait one more month for some other toys to arrive from Japan.

Nice.
Nice to also see it on another colour. Really shows up the lines of the kit.
Love the side skirts, just a few subtle extra lines.
If you get a chance, can you get a low shot looking straight on at the front.

I'll take more pix when the weather clears up.. it's sprinkling outside now.

From a front view, the bumper is LOW. I would say it's about 3 inches off the floor now.. if not less. I would be hesitant to ever lower this car.

The kit came with everything, and very minimal modifications needed. Heavy duty fiberglass, but it's still fiberglass.

RMagic.. I went complete JDM stuff. Might as well, it's a Japanese car.
Also forgot to mention, I want to thank DMix on this message board for his help in answering my questions regarding this kit. He rocks, and his website rocks too. Doomo Arigatoo.

I really love that kit. If I had to do it all over again, it would be a tough decision, but I'd probably choose this over MS.
The car looks great.
Do you plan on adding the rear bumper?
Add a nice set of JDM wheels, and you'll really have a show-stopper!

JDM wheels are on its' way... waited 1 month already, another 1 month to go.
I'll then get the exhaust after that, since I'm still thinking about what to do with the rear part... but as of now, I kinda like it this way.

why dont you get the new rear from Autobahn?
its 2 pieces similiar to the INGS pieces which attaches to the same spot and they would line up with the sideskirts for sure...
D'Mix (member here) has a set on his autobahn'ed red 8

At the time I ordered the kit, those rears weren't available. But the rears looks kinda goofy to me,... I prefer a sharper line, like the rear aero of Ings+1. When I get to see the JIC Ings+1 car again or the other local guy that bought the Ings+1 kit, I'll try and see if the rears line up.
I might still get a Ings+1 kit as a backup to this one... so not sure. As long as no cutting is involved.

i thought the kit was made of FRP (fiberglass reinforced plastic)? Was the kit easy to install?
I just got into a minor front end accident and im looking for a good quality bumper.
Is the wire mess black or steel colored?
Is there any room for the stock fog light?

Wire mesh is silver color, but you can paint it whatever color you want. Easy to install on that when you see how the rear looks.
There is ton of room for fog light or whatever you want.. it extends the front bumper slightly, and has a huge lip area for a bunch of fog lights if you wish.

Looks awesome! I've been saving for that exact spoiler/kit combination (up until my 8 got wrecked). Once it's out of the repair shop, I hope you won't mind having a TiGray twin :-D
