I don't even know if MS even offers the wing in CF. Like the sig says, mine is Rotary Extreme. In case anyone was wondering, their quality is top notch. I know I know, take pictures! It will be done soon. I can take a pic of it off the car if anyone cares

I was looking into getting the CF lip only (MS sides/ rear/wing). Found 2 companies that can get it imported for me.
1. http://www.jt-imports.com/U.S.Atop.htm (based in Japan)
2. http://www.rotaryextreme.com (based in the US, CA)
Both quoted me ~$780 shipped to my door. (only for the front CF lip) Can't remember the price breakdown, but it was something like 380 for lip +5%tax+ ~$300s/h+ other fees) still unsure about getting it.
Email them both to get a quote on the entire kit.

Also, I received my brochure from ks-auto last week. It has the same pictures as on the web but the picture of the front is much larger and you can see more details. I'll scan it tommorrow and post it here.

Reread the email quote I got from rotaryextreme.com (Chuck Huang) and here's how to come up with the prices to have it shipped to your door.

You take the amount in Yen
Divide by 102 (exchange rate they get from bank)
Multiply by 1.10 (10%tax ; 5 is japanese sales tax and 5 is import tax)
Then add the shipping charge to the US (about 200-250 per box)
(total of 2 boxes- they can fit the rear and eyelids in with the front, the sides come in a seperate box)
Then add the shipping charge within the US (about 30-40 per box)
And add 3% to total if paying by Paypal, leave out if paying by check.

I've done the math and the complete CF kit total comes to $2250.
The complete fiberglass kit comes to $1700.
(this is if you pay with check)

Email him directly to verify the numbers I came up with.

I think the burnout lip is alittle lower and sticks out further than the mazda ap front air dam. Here's the rest of the images from their site.

I'm still only interested in the CF front lip and hope it matches the black closely. Don't want it to stand out too much (like it does on that white RX8.)

how do you think the carbon fiber kit would look on a black car?
Has anyone found a vender who sells this kit in the U S ?
