Hello,

Long time lurker, first time posting. I found your website about 6 months ago, when I was looking into the RX8. About a month later I had my 8. Since then you all have helped me care for it, and walked me though many DIY ventures. Thank you all for that, on behalf of myself and the many lurkers that read your forums behind the scenes.

It's a 2005 Black Cherry Shinka, with 44k miles.

cbmm3- It's on the to-do.

Monchie- I love that car, 98 eclipse, 255k miles. I have had to do nothing to that car since i purchased it back in 2004. One of the best cars I have owned. My mower uses less gas.


I've already put in a purchase order for my SS accents (front,back,vent) and im switching the vent itself from the OEM black plastic to a glossy black aluminum.

Also in the works is switching the audio headunit.

Down the road I am looking into some dark bronze rims. (3k for a rim set is a bit out of the ballpark being tax season and all.)
