Which Kit for the 3 Hatch?

:
2003 Spicy Orange MSP & Mazda 6 S
We have a blue 3 hatchback we are working on here at ExtremeDimensions/Carbon Creations. I am looking for some oppinions on what kit the 3 owners would like to see on the car.
Any Suggestions and Input welcome.

The 4 we were thinking was the:

Mazdaspeed Kit from the RX8

have you checked out the ken style that would be sweet if you guys could knock off that
 
Mazdaspeed kit is fine on the 8 but I think it wouldn't look right on the 3. The kenstyle kits are by far the nicest ones mentioned and the ones you have above (besides the 8) are just ungodly ugly and really won't look right on a 3. Most of those kits are designed for civics. A civic has really bland lines so a busy grill, lip, sill, or bumper kit although not my taste can work. A mazda 3 has alot more body lines and adding a busy as hell kit with pointless holes and vents will just look way overdone and cheap.
 
Man... that Drifter kit is just butt-frickin ugly. Looks like a chick with too much collagen injection.

The RX-8 is definitely the cleanest.
 
he Kenstyle kit is the baddest kit available!!! If you are thinking of producing something here is something I have noticed... The 3 engine bay gets VERY hot inside. Why not make some kind of vented hood? I guarantee 3 owners would buy it up like hotcakes. I have been looking for some way to buy or make a hood for my 3, still no solutions. We deffinately need a vented hood though. Body kit wise.. come up with something new. people like new products that no one else has. dont copy it off of a civic or some kind of honda. this is the first year this car has ever been out, so with a new car and new style, lets get a new style of kits going. Anyway, my $.02
 
I would say that you shoul set up a vote to get a more accurate account on what us 3 owners are looking for.

My opinion is the MazdaSpeed RX8 kit and then the Drifter kit.

I think whatever you go with needs to have somewhat of an agressive unique look because that is the look that the 3 hatch carries allready.
 
I like the front bumper of the walker kit, the mazdaspeed RX8 kit, and the front f the drifter kit. those other ones kinda suck. and I agree totaly with splitvizion
 
by the way here is the Kenstyle kit which everyone LOVES, which I am close to purchasing before I get rid of my car actually.

Mazdaspeed kit... the walker looks a little too busy in the front and the two fins in the rear detract from the otherwise interesting sides(rear) - JDM buddy kit might take some work to match the already lowslung muffler on the MZ3-5. The MZSPD kit keeps that Mazda grin up front and coddles the mufflers in the rear.. nice work.
 
go with something original. don't just steal a design from some other kit that everybody else has. there are way to many drift and budddy clut body kits around, i want my 3 to look nicer then that, i dont want to buy a 3 just to make it look like every honda downt he block.
 
I'm not a 3 owner(maybe in the future :D), but I think the Buddy Club would look tight. Maybe someone can attempt to photoshop these.
