Burnout kit question



I am currently saving for a body kit less than 2k and I was wondering how the carbon fiber burnout kit would look on a velocity red with a mspeed spoiler? Does anyone possibly have this setup or something close to it? Rice or Nice?

But for right now I have to worry about when im getting it back from the shop. I posted a thread about how my door was destroyed about half a week ago.


How i miss her revs...

IMO the carbon bits would look extremely rice on the red, but sometimes rice looks nice.

you should have had them shave the door handles while they were fixing it!

Mine is CF with Nordic Green. Go for it! You should be the first with Red! If you don't like the color combination, you just paint red later.

is that the burnout lip? Dam looks a lot lot just the mazda front air dam. I have to admit that is a pretty cool setup, don't have to spend a lot of money on a full kit either

Sloppy quick photo shop job just to give you an idea.

IMO, I think that CF goes well with the VR. I have CF eyelids on my 8 and was going to paint them VR but decided I like the way they looked as they were. Am enclosing a Pic of my CF eyelids on my VR 8.

Old thread but i wanted to say,I love carbon fiberon my red...It looks niiiiiiiice..And as far its m car and i don't care for others opinions i love it...I have carbon fiber ms style spoiler and soon i am getting carbon full rear under(the full black plastic in the exhausts)to much the wing and carbon fiber splitters for the stock bumper and a carbon fiber lip spoiler..But not like the burnout one..

My opinion,go for it..Carbon fiber worths ther bucks...The rice for me would be if you have carbon fiber hood on red and keep the stock hps...But for a lip or wing etc its in your taste man...

it will look good with red, that will blend in with the window edges, b-pillar etc. at least you are not introducing a new colour to the car

Yes, like mikeb said, the Burnout kits are just add on. Nothing has to be taken off.
