i like it too. I think the mazdaspeed and ms kit will be done by too many others, kits like this keep your car unique.

as for me, im going to fall in with the rest of the sheep and ordered my mazdaspeed kit a bit ago, i think i really should have waited and most likely the cost of the kits will go down after the cars been around for awhile.

it's dissapointing
veilside is great and the rx8 is a cool car to have a unique bodykit
this bodykit is simple and looks like so many others in the import scene
I thought they would make something unique and differnet

Oh god the humanity! Make it stop!!! All it needs now is a big extra tach and shift light inside and 6 body panels worth of poorly translated Japanese stickers.

In all seriousness though, I personally have never liked anything that Veilside makes. Not a single product for a single car. But there are people that do and if they want to do that to their car, more power to them as long as they are happy.

If I wanted my car to look THAT different from all the other RX-8's out there, it would be called a Honda.

yea, that's what I thought. I'm sure if people don't like it, VeilSide will come up with some different versions like on the 350Z, at least I hope.

It looks ok but I wouln't mount it

mental, since apparently it doesn't work to warn you in pm's, if you don't quit with bashing mikeb you're getting a 3 day ban.

That bodykit is called the D1-GT Model (off the official Veilside website). There is no rear view of it. I have also found a different one called the Ver. 1 Model. Any feedback?

The RX-8 may be a "rice burner" soley on the fact that it is a Japanese car but that does not mean that the car is "ricey" as in big stickers, beer keg sized exhaust tips, redundant aftermarket gauges, obscene body kits, and wings stolen from a small airplane. I have seen ricey Camaros, Mustangs, the odd Chevy pickup, several Neons, Cavaliers, even a Ford Festiva with a Supra wing attached to the top! While you don't see very many riced out american cars they too are still "rice". The term "rice" as most people use it is a style albeit a less than desirable one. Personally I think of rice soley as a food and not a style. Call YOUR car whatever you want but don't call OUR cars rice. I refuse to be associated with "ricers".

You can do it...the parts come unfinished, so you can get a paint shop to make it whatever color you desire.

As for me I prefer the version 1 kit front and back with the side flares from this kit. The ver 1 sides look like they were an afterthought and nothing else about them looks redeeming. However, after much thought about how expensive it is to buy then prep and paint these kits from veilside I'll probably pass as I get enough looks just like it is!

i think that veilside makes some of the best body kits. but this one seems to be a little too agressive for the curves of the rx-8. The new C-1 body kit from veilside which consists of the front lip, rear lip, and side skirts looks really clean in my opinion. i think that the C-1 kit would be a better choice of the two.
