Hey /o/

This is not a trollan thread, as I have a serious question. I plan to build the car in the picture. I own a titanium grey Mazda RX-8, and I will get a full MazdaSpeed bodykit, some KW V3 coilovers, MazdaSpeed strut bars, MazdaSpeed sway bars and 17" Enkei RPF1s.

Should result in a pretty serious cornering machine, and will pay off big time at the track.

Problem is, I still gotta daily drive this thing, and I can't store it during the winter. Winter is obviously coming, and I'm just wondering how a car with a bodykit will perform in the ice. I'll have snow tires and all, but I really don't want to cause significant damage to a $3000 bodykit.

I've never had a car with a bodykit before, unless you count that NISMO Nissan Sentra 1.8L XG-L I had when I was in Malaysia, but I didn't drive that in the snow.

Any ideas?
