AutoExe SE-OC3 Kit Announced

This was just announced this week in Japan:

http://www.jdmtuningnews.com/articles/72508b.htm

AutoExe has just pulled the wraps off of its SE-OC3 bodykit for the Mazda RX-8 (se3p). This aero package is said to be the 4th kit the company has released in a series with the theme being "decisive functional beauty". Fully functional, the front nose features ducts for their proprietary intake and oil cooler. The 22m low mount wing suppresses excessive drag found on the street. Their rear under panel is compatible with a dual muffler. Look to pay over 200,000 yen for the entire kit (Front Bumber, Rear Bumper, Side Skirts and Wing). Prices and images can be seen at the link. It goes on sale in Japan at the end of August.

Don't know about the wing though. Looks like a cheap generic wing.

you ve never seen the AutoExe wing b4? Its the same wing off of thier SE-02S kit, since the new gen 8s trunk is the same why change it,,,, Its been around for about 4 years now and is definately not a knock off, and also made in CF, its actually a pretty unique wing for the 8....

makes me like the exterior a little to. the clear reflectors on the japanese rx-8 model and that angle of the picture kinda reminded me of a miata NB.
