Stock 8 with MS spoiler?

I really like the look the MS wing gives to the 8. But I was wondering if people think the car will look wierd with the MS wing but with no kits at all.

iv looked everywhere but I could not find a stormy blue 8 with a MS wing, if anyone has any pics i'd really appreciate it, or if anyone has a stock 8 with the MS spoiler pics aswell.

Though I want peoples opinions on wheather or not a stock 8 would look good with the MS spoiler.

you should at least have the appearance package if you get the MS spoiler. the MS spoiler makes the car look higher so you need something to look lower.

I was also thinking of getting the appearance package, or at first just the front air dam, but that will look a bit wierd.

1200 bucks for the wing is too much.

Whatever happened to the Replica's? The only problem I saw with them was that used Plastic housing unit but that was later fixed but they just weren't 3 way adjustable like the original. 1200 Bucks IMO is so not worth the price tag.

I think, the RX-8 looks so much better without any spoiler.

Yeah, that ones a replica.

As far as getting an authentic in stormy blue, I don't think they make them. You would have to get the one they sell that is primered and then have a body shop paint it.

Looks are only in the eye of the beholder. I personally don't like the wing at all. If you like it though then there shouldn't be anyone here to tell you different.

I have the MS wing with no body kits. I have a bunch of other aesthetic mods though so that kind of offsets it. My friend Leo, (dontfeedthenerd) has the same color as you do and his is stock on the outside with the MS wing. That wing just looks good no matter what. I would say go for it. It looks a lot better than the OEM spoiler.

Hi...I am getting a Stormy 2007 rx8 soon. I was just gonna get the Appearance package, but once I saw the rust for the stock wing after 4 years I am having doubts.

Just wondering if there are drilling required for MS wing as well? I am thinking there are drilling for MS Speed wing as well right?

Maybe I should go for a lip spoiler, unfortunately, I cannot find any good ones here.

Would you guys provide any suggestion? Thanks!

MS spoiler uses 2 of the 3 stock spoiler holes (And covers the third, mostly). If your 8 never had a spoiler... not sure... someone around here probably knows.

Good lip spoiler? Racing beat.

In my opinion, the MS wing is too agressive without some sort of kit. If you have the appearance package, then it will look fine. If you get the MS bodykit, it will look even better. But it is just too out of place by itself.
