Cool. Does the kit include the wing? What color is your 8?

I won't be racing it, just personalizing my 8 to my liking. The kit comes with front bumper, rear bumper, and side skirt. For the spoiler I plan to get the r magic wing. my 8 is black. just got new tires and wheels on it.

Awesome. I feel this is the best looking bodykit (after the MS) and want to see it on an 8. Even better is mine is black as well.

Post details of the install, such as if trimming is necessary etc..

So youre the guy they sold it to. I went to the speed alliance shop last week and they told me that they sold a vertex lang kit to someone in the eastcoast. They were trying to get me to buy the kit also since it was in stock, being the only one in the west coast to have it, but being a poor college student, I couldn't afford it. But I bet it would look really nice on your car, can't wait to see it.

I have a thread in the wheels section:https://www.rx8club.com/showthread.php?t=52191

I will wait until next month to order the r magic wing. I need a month to replenish funds. I have also ordered the AU-TO Bahn Sports LED Aero Mirror through memoryfab dot com, which should be here in 2 weeks. Wheels, Tires, Body Kit, side mirrors and wing should look real nice together.

I've been looking into those mirrors myself. I think they're the best I've seen thusfar. I'm not sure of the specifics but how much and how long to get them? Also, Do they come unpainted as well? Thanks in advance.

I kind of test fitted before having it painted. I installed the entire kit myself in my garage. I have to make a bit of an adjustment on the nose but all in all it took me 3 days. I did some custom fog lights and mesh. I will post pics soon. I ordered the led mirors a few weeks ago and I should have them in by next weekend. I paid the extra money to have them delivered distributer then to me. Can't wait for the mirrors to cap of my winter project.
