Thanks man, your car is clean as well. My only critique would be to eliminate that tire stretch. I love a clean stock body RX-8.

Scott's car is truly the epitomy(sp?) Of what a gorgeous VR looks like. That classic look of Mazdaspeed, kinda like that classy milf you always dreamed about.

The stretch will be gone on the next set of tires. I was planning on going lower, so I put on a set of tires that would allow me to. Raised the car back up after about a week and a half. Minnesota roads were going to completely destroy her. So I figure I can be stuck with these unless I splurge on some new wheels too.

WillIbarrola - did you modify a R3 bumper or is it an aftermarket bumper?

Not feeling the rear, or the paint, or the wheel fitment. But there is potential. Was the whole car repainted at some point?

Good job on fitting the S2 bumper, I'd love to see more detailed pics. Looks pretty good around the headlights, they did some molding for sure.

Actually I'm pretty sure you aren't wrong either. They do make a series 1 bumper that looks like this, well I'm pretty sure I've seen it. I just went with the actual lip tho
