Wings West Body Kit on my 2000DX - woohoo!

I got the Wings West kit about a week ago and just got around to installing it now.. I don't have the front bumper from the kit since it won't fit my car.. I still intend on getting a replacement front bumper from either Japan or Erebuni (ick.)

So, here's what the stuff looks like (other than those crappy pictures on the wings west site which doesn't show the stuff in detail..) enjoy

A definite improvement!

good job keeping the shine, we can see you taking the pic in the reflection of the bumper.
any plans to lower it? try to photoshop it to see.

That looks good. I wasn't really sure what it would look like from the website.

I've got some racing beat springs sitting in my garage, those are the lowering springs that will go on my car (although it'll only be a .525" drop), just need the struts and sway bars first before installing them..

For front bumper, I'm either getting the JDM familia bumper (shorter bumper) or unknown.. Mazdaspeed bumper is kind of out of the question as it sits too low.. I just want something i can *eventually* get a lip for.

Otherwise, the Sport 20 bumper is extremely cheap through mazdamotorsports so that would be an option for me as well, I don't mind the small headlight gap I'd have without the proper headlights from the car.

Jeremy D's car looks very nice up close with the full sport 20 front end.

I can't compromise the daily drivability of the car much, is what I'm saying, big bumpers definitely don't help daily driving.. and FIBERGLASS sucks so thats why it must be some OEM JDM or if i'm pushing my luck I might get fiberglass.

Looka great David! If you get a front bumper, I vote for the Sport 20 bumper. That thing would look awesome on your car.

Looking good. I second the Sport20 front bumper. It'll be a unique match. Besides, it's the cleanest bumper out there. Everything else is just too much.
