View Full Version : New Decals
bottoms up 03-24-2008, 08:22 PM Got this done last week at RedlineDesign in DC. Picked it up Thursday around 3am so all I have right now are the night time pics. Day time pics will come but a bath needs to happen first.
I had the silver and black shadow stripe but that got messed up with a mishap with a deer in November. I was a lil nervous how this would turn out but Im very pleased with it. :)

HockeyRX-8 03-24-2008, 09:39 PM Looks good!
Aipex8 03-24-2008, 09:41 PM definitely not for me. can they easily be removed?
I'm with you. I think the OP is a female and that's why everyone is loving them. Damn leg humpers.
pdxhak 03-24-2008, 09:46 PM lol The OP could be male, female or she male and it is not going to matter to me!
TimzSI 03-24-2008, 09:58 PM it reminds me of that psychadelic number countdown animation on seaseme street back in the day, lol!
UFGator12 03-24-2008, 09:59 PM not gonna lie about this one. that's pretty rough. tell me that's not painted on there. please.
RX OCHO 03-24-2008, 10:09 PM not my taste
Razz1 03-24-2008, 10:12 PM Flower Power!

TimzSI 03-24-2008, 10:45 PM i see a VA inspection sticker, where do you live? Arlington, fairfax? I know I'll see you around. :)
I got into a stoplight GP with a cute spanish girl in a WB 8 about a year ago. It was hot. :o
turborx8 03-24-2008, 11:13 PM Do you sit down when you pee?
DOMINION 03-24-2008, 11:21 PM I'm with you. I think the OP is a female and that's why everyone is loving them. Damn leg humpers.
Play along now :beer05:
Oh wow cool man I'm loving it :smoker: post some pics of you and your 8 ;) :fingersx:
TopGear8 03-24-2008, 11:44 PM Eh, whatever floats your boat.
06carbon8 03-24-2008, 11:47 PM i like it. i saw the title and sighed, but they were done nicely. wanna see daytime though.
perks11 03-24-2008, 11:55 PM looks okay, not my style, i think the 8 looks best clean with no stickers on it, but yours is not bad
pdxhak 03-24-2008, 11:56 PM i like it. i saw the title and sighed, but they were done nicely. wanna see daytime though.
not surprised you like it :lol:
06carbon8 03-25-2008, 12:39 AM hey now, at least it doesnt say type r anywhere hahah. i'm reserving a final judgement til daylight pics though.
CyberPitz 03-25-2008, 12:42 AM I don't think it looks horrible, but I also don't think it looks good.
It scores points for flashing the rotors, though.
rx8speeddmon 03-25-2008, 12:44 AM We definitely are not going to have to guess who it is if we see you on the streets sometime. It is not my thing but I love the fact that you are doing different things with your ride. Updated pics are always a good thing!!:rolleyes:
Subarashi 03-25-2008, 01:22 AM Looks pretty intense. Def. an eye catcher.
Spinning Sushi 03-25-2008, 01:46 AM Everyone, go here: http://www.rx8club.com/showthread.php?p=2367551#post2367551
Gambit 03-25-2008, 03:20 PM a little too much for me...either rotors OR stars would have looked better
but hey, it's your car so there's really only one opinion that counts
what does that kinda stuff cost?
Jedi54 03-25-2008, 03:23 PM hate it. Cheapens the look of the car
As long as YOU like it, it shouldn't matter what I (or most of us) think but figured I'd throw my $.02 in.
Trekk 03-25-2008, 03:29 PM Looks cool but IMO it's a little to much for those stock rims. Something chrome or polished would look hot.
kimberly lynn 03-25-2008, 06:19 PM Idk, Dawn. Not my taste but you're happy with it, which is most important. John told me you were getting something like this done. Did he see it in person?
hough2696 03-25-2008, 06:26 PM I've never been one for graphics or decals....but what makes you happy means the most! I'd also like to see day shots..
P.S. Where have you been lately? School?
zoom44 03-25-2008, 06:32 PM i think it look sgood. looks kinda like one of those Rock Star cars.
i was thinking about getting the speed source style rotary swirls done

crafted_soul 03-25-2008, 07:01 PM I like it...but seriously needs more mods such as....chrome wheels....wings..bodykit..etc,... Decals look way better on heavily tricked-out cars. IMO. :)
jones75254 03-25-2008, 07:45 PM not gonna lie about this one. that's pretty rough. tell me that's not painted on there. please.
+1.....looks like it belongs in an episode of Teletubby's or Barney.
bottoms up 03-25-2008, 09:58 PM ok...
1. I am female. To be honest I got sick and tired of whenever I stopped anywhere the guy I was with was getting the compliments on the car soo....i made it girly!
2. Im not in VA anymore I lived 3hours west of DC tho. Im in South Jersey now.
3. My insurance company paid for it I didnt so Im not sure what it would cost
4. Def. knew many ppl wouldnt like it. BUT oh well like they are all saying it is mine and I do like to hear other ppls opinion
5. Hough Ive been working alot...3 jobs (sales in a dealership, shot girl in a bar, and promo girl for absolut)
6. I dont consider decals "mods" at all. "Mods" will come shortly, like several of you know I just graduated college so $$ is tight but...its getting a little easier to put away for a few things. :) :) Also a few of the things I have planned are the reasons I chose these decals so it is def. a work in progress.
7. I titled the thread "New Decals" decals are stickers not paint so pay attention...
8. Kim- No John didnt get a chance to see them :(
9. Gambit I felt the same way before I got it done about the stars but I told they guy to do what he though was best and I like how it turned out.
Thank you for the comments!! As mentioned before I knew not everyone would like it. Trust me I was nervous at first...Im a simple girl and I didnt know how I would like the decals. I also looked at it as, hey my car get hit every 6mo somehow anyway I will prob. change them out in a year anyways.
WoodsOfGreenRx8 03-25-2008, 10:05 PM Its different. I am 50/50 on it. I am curious to see shots of it during the day time.
NoTears316 03-26-2008, 12:28 AM Idk, Dawn. Not my taste but you're happy with it, which is most important. John told me you were getting something like this done. Did he see it in person?
No, I never did get to see it in person. I was so tired that day, and someone in South Jersey was being a little too indecisive on what to do. Never made the drive down there.
NoTears316 03-26-2008, 12:30 AM i was thinking about getting the speed source style rotary swirls done
http://theracesite.com/client_images/mag/12988_main.jpg
That is what I recommended when she first mentioned wanting the rotary decal look.
HiTMaNN 03-26-2008, 12:42 AM Not my cup o tea
Pink Flea 03-26-2008, 01:24 AM Zoom.. Those are the decals I just ordered for my 7 and my 8..
fahrfegneugen 03-26-2008, 01:52 AM ok...
1. I am female. To be honest I got sick and tired of whenever I stopped anywhere the guy I was with was getting the compliments on the car soo....i made it girly!
Then I think it is really cool.
briann 03-26-2008, 02:04 AM I'm iffy too.
As long as you like it though :)
I think it would look good, if there were no rotars or stars. Just the swirly things. :lol:
Ever Hernandez 03-26-2008, 02:25 AM a little tint would help, for starters.
whenever I stopped anywhere the guy I was with was getting the compliments on the car soo....i made it girly!
I feel you on this, my GF got mad recently when a guy complimented me, (while she was in the driver's seat) on HER driving skills. haha
dshiznit1489 03-26-2008, 02:28 AM I like all of it except the exploding parts. :icon_tup:
Veil_Side 03-26-2008, 04:13 AM can post a pics under white/sun light ?
Wind Dance 03-26-2008, 05:05 AM Its unique... good job. :)
IMHO i think the rotors are in too much of a straight line, but ehh.
Def. not everyones cup of tea.
boanjangnararmine 03-26-2008, 05:31 AM i like the rotors but the stars are a bit over the top for me. =]
looks like the apex seals are blowing off the rotors yay!
DOMINION 03-26-2008, 06:00 AM Man if this was only a guy :lol:
Aero8 03-26-2008, 10:06 AM Over the top for me. I like the center rotor and the design under everything that is slightly off of your paint color.
As long as you like it, it's your car!
fahrfegneugen 03-26-2008, 03:14 PM i like the rotors but the stars are a bit over the top for me. =]
looks like the apex seals are blowing off the rotors yay!
lmao
Man if this was only a guy :lol:
If it was I could help but dare and say the "g" word :uhh:
the stig 03-26-2008, 04:16 PM i dont like any stickers on my car. but if thats your style then good for you.

remixlp 03-28-2008, 03:03 AM Different strokes for different folks. As long as you like it then thats all that matters. Personally im not a big fan of any decals at all. Call me simple, i just like that clean look.
