its just fun to knock veilside but it just doesnt look rx8, if you put that on a civic for example itd fit, but rx8's are IMO supposed to look clean.
not that i'm saying all veilsides are ugly but most are. just like not everyone with an MS kit looks good.
that said, i think your car would be a good example of an acceptable one

1. We just moved. We spent the last 2 weeks taking the old place apart and moving everything to the new place. We are still getting set up.
2. We JUST got our urethane shipment. There is a bunch of RX8 urethane stuff in stock now.
3. Customs - yeah 3 days would be nice.... But, that isn't always the case.

the front clip will need to be shaved and molded a bit near the corners for a perfect fit....the skirts were perfect for me and the rear i just bought was already fitted......but i would not try this myself unless i had some autobody experience.....keep in mind the d1gt is fiberglass and results will vary a bit.....

Well I got the call today from Veilside, my kit is in. It will be in my garage by the middle of next week. I'll have in the shop by next weekend , I figure. One thing is that I will not do it on my own , after spending that money i want a good job. Theres no way I will touch it.

Yesssss, I will be boxing it up today.
with ANY fiberglass kit, I would say that at least SOME sanding/work needs to be done. Two are never going to be the same just for the simple fact that the gel coat will never cure exactly alike.
It is when you go with the counterfit companies that you REALLY need to work on the parts a LOT.

im sure its already noted elsewhere in this thread but... there are some that are DAMN close. MS is perfect fit and birect bolt on with exception of cutting for the rear diffuser... and there are a couple of jDm kits that are/were offered as OEM options over there that are perfect fit so they say...

Rotor Kreuzer,
The fitment is good for the CF, not sure about the other type.
VeilSideBrian,
I got a kit last year and the front bumber and rear bumper come with a rectangle shaped indentation, is this intentional? (front indentation is in the bottom of the large opening)

That it has.. DAMN close though, isnt perfect, but I also understand there will never be any perfect, minus the MS kit & thats cause its made by Mazda, and as I said about that, it better damn well be.
