How would we fit this 'body kit'? The fender is pushed in, and there are vents over the front wheels. And we have no idea what the rear looks like.

the fender dent thing is an aberation in the image. the fenders themselves have been changed as well but you dont need them to fit the bumper as they are the same in front of the tire. i have no idea what knowing how the back looks affects the fitting of the bumper

I'm talking about the looks of the car, not just the bumper. The bumper and sideskirts will fit easily, yes. But I wouldn't mind having those new fenders, and the vents on the body just above the wheel (as opposed to vents on the hood). That's what I'm asking, is that possible?

How long is that? Well either way the shows are quickly approaching next month... i just want to know if we can get more info before then... and can we convince Mazda to either supplement or replace the current MS kit with that blue one.

Nice photochop on the Miata and Mazda6. I like the look on both of them as well...

Did anyone ever figure out what wheels those are? Also, are there any spoilers like that in production now? That front fender looks much better than the guppy mouth stock one. I think they made it ugly like that just so everyone would buy the MS for $1200.

I dunno. Looking at the rear view pics of the Kenstyle kit... it uses the OEM "Euro style" lip spoiler. This may not be the same, but it doesn't seem totally out of the question either...
