HALIMSTEVEN!! man, that package you've got on your front end is SEXY, it looks like the MS bumper with some kind of splitter//diffuser attached to it... not to bite off you or anything, but i think that would look great on mt BB 8. thanks

 

i would eventually get the entire seibon cf f+r lip + lip kit

 

Yes! Do carbon! But beware, its like a disease that is hard to cure.

 

I wish I knew how to do that, the glove box hatch is sweet! and all the other stuff.

 

wow thats overboard lol

 

Chino314, if you think thats overboard, you should look at the rest of my car! And i still have a few more cf pieces to go! https://www.rx8club.com/members/carbonrx-8-32092-albums-my-love-1753/

 

my seibon hood is of the higher quality ones i have seen but you must remember that it is aftermarket and will never look great out of the box. if you want it to look great you have to bring it to a body shop and have them block and clear it maybe more than once just to get the waves out. the manufacturer only does enough to get it out the door. if you do buy one don't expect it to a). fit like factory or b). be smooth out of the box.

by next winter the car will be back in the shop and the hood will be painted.

 

depends on who makes the hood. My Seibon CF TS Hood looked amazing with no waves at all and only minor fitment issues... It all depends on who you buy your hood from. Seibon makes quality products

 

Hey OP, if this helps this is what my WB with my Seibon CF TS hood looks like not painted... I have the appearance package

 

i used to have quite a few CF pieces. Seibon TS hood, Evo-R front lip, CF overlaid Aero Flares, and CF Mazdaspeed rear diffuser.

 

Nothing says "Me, too!" more than CF. Personally, I can't stand the look of the stuff. I've worked with it for 25 years and it holds nothing for me. Meh.

Also many of cheaper CF components on the market weigh more than the stock parts they replace. Only the high-dollar ones give you the weight savings advantage.

 

i've been askin myself the same question. I have a couple of ideas but not sure if i will end up going through with them or not.

 

heres what you do get the vented hood that is lighter than stock than paint it to match rest of the car leave only th vents unpainted do the same with the trunk but just paint it all to match and do the same with fenders if you get them once again if you have vents don't paint them. this way t looks clean and you avoid the douche bag look thats way over played.
