I just got my 8 back from True Performance this morning and they did an great job! Thanks Huhwha/ kellybrf. Paid way too much but what are you going to do. I purchased the evo-r.net carbon fiber eyelids for $120 and then $190 to have them painted to match the car. Sooo.............$310 for a freakin' cosmetic part!!! This process started all the way back Aug. so it has been a long time coming to get this done. Oh well, looks good now I suppose.

I got a call from my audio installer @ CCA and there is a car show Friday Night 8p. 6/24 at the CCA on Morse Road just past Easton. Should be pretty good. I think it would be great to have a nice representation of 8's there. Anyone in? I'm there for sure so my installer can show off his work. He also owns a 3rd Gen RX-7 that is all tricked out, so you can check that out while you are there also.

Car Show at CCA?

Success07, I'm an 8 owner in Gahanna and read your note about an upcoming car show. Where is the "CCA" you are referring near Easton? Is the car show you refer to for a certain manufacturer, or what? tks..

WVU - CCA is Columbus Car Audio - Morse Road just past Easton. I'm sure it will just be an opportunity to get bunch of tricked out cars together. Should be a good time.

Hung - The only place I know would be the RX8Store or Passen Motorsports. Jason at the RX8Store was going to do them for free back in the day but I'm not sure where that stands either. I still need to get over there anyways so just let me when you'd like to get together and go. Another group meeting maybe.

Ah! Not a problem. Nice to meet you! :p

Success- I'll try to plan on it! Hopefully, you don't mind having a pretty stock 8 in your company. :o Anyone else?

I'd be interested. I'm all stock right now too so hopefully they'll let us participate It would be interesting to see what kind of whp variation our stock 8's have since I've seen people posting anywhere from 170-200.

Columbus 8 owners,

I want to get my windows tinted and was wondering if anyone had them done around here and what they paid, recommendations, etc.

Thanks!

Saw a fellow Columbus 8 owner this afternoon (Sunday) heading north on High Street at 161 in a Velocity Red RX-8.

I was the guy in the Shinka. :-)

Tyler8, you wouldn't happen to live or know someone who lives in the Village at Worthington would you? I've seen a Shinka come out of there twice but I've always been in my Expedition.

Columbus - Mark Fravel at Quality Window Tint on Morse Road. Been doing business with him for 15 years. Send me a pm before you go so I can give you some more info on pricing and such. I've sent him alot of business over the years and all as worked out well.

Is this still on for friday night? If so, I'll definitely be there.

Hey if some of you are still interested in dyno your 8, its going to cost 40.00 for 3 pulls if we get 5 cars. Im sure the more we get, the better price. Anyone interested?
