Chuck can still get M-sport parts, and they're also available here: http://www.renovaauto.com/shop.do?ac...s&c=143400&m=0

Def...but I think it would only look nice as is....very clean, no wing, no extras here or there...

I'm still trying to find pics of the kit in better lighting, or hopefully in a lighter color, because you can't really make out much of the details in those pics...

MSport kits are being sold....i know that much, but is there a difference? can someone point out a difference?

if you go to the KS-auto site youll see they have a color changer for the kit when you view the product. there is black and white color selection. FYI

fenders on the ks are more square at the lip area, also look wider, the oil ducts/brake ducts look much more angular on the ks kit, and the bumper is not no squar looking on the ks..

You need to clarify what parts you are getting. What are you talking about when you say "kit"?

If you are talking about wider fenders, the pictures of the MSport car doesn't have their wide fenders installed. It is just the front bumper, side skirts and rear bumper.

satoacs, thank you very much. I was looking under the wrong section, "Demo car." You know what sucks tho? The white one doesn't have the wide fenders or 1/4 panels on it.

Oh and is it just me, or does that front end remind you of the 99spec front end/RX8 mazdaspeed front end?

the thing with the flares is, they are grom the other kit, the GT one. i like the front end n stuff because its not too big. i actually like the kits that look cool, but arent so big and obnoxious that theyre ugly (i.e. *cough*nissan kits...*cough*mitsubishi kits )

Thanks for the price listing satoacs. I would definately recommend the KS kit with the GT fenders over the M-sport.

still no one has been able to point out a difference. is that because the main difference, if not only, is:

- the KS-Auto has more lines in the front bumper(wider looking)
- KS side skirts are taller than MSport
- the MSport rear bumper is taller and less "fitted" to the stock shape

those are what i see, is there anything else?
