MS KIT or APPEARANCE PACKAGE

I know majority will say MS KIT but I dont want any rubbing. I dont want my money to go to waste. In MD they have horrible roads here... very hard decision. Should I settle with the appearance package and get turbo when it comes out or get ms kit and wait several months to get turbo. I need help deciding.

I personally am waiting.

Waiting for what? To see what comes out next. There isn't any rush. I'll wait a year or two and see what's available. I may need a new front end for air intake or hood. No sense in replacing them prematurely.

Meanwhile the stock front is taking the rock chips

sillygirl you havean automatic Rx8 like me right? Well the turbo kits are goingto be available for the manual way before there will be any for our automatics so youre going to be waiting several months anyway. Us auto owners keep getting shafted all the damn time in every aspect it seems.

OhI also wantedto add that back in AprilI was driving backhome from a club (and I was a little more than buzzed) and didnt properly avoid a concrete blockthat was lying in the middle of Collins and it went right under the middle of my car and I dragged it for about 20 feet before reversing andrealizing that my car didntpass right over it. Looking back -- ifI had the MS bodykit or front skirt appearance package on my Rx8 that night there would have been no way to avoidthat block from damaging the front bumper ofone of those kits BUT those bumpers definitely would have stopped the block from getting underneath my car and doing whateverdamage it did do down there. My pointis it would have been better tohave cosmetic damage instead of whatever damage that **** did down there. (Still dont know ifit hit anything important to this day)

Re:

Has anyone seen MS front and appearance package sides and rear. I was thinking about doing this, but wasn't sure how it would look.
