The only mods I currently have are black out emblems and red emblem inserts in the back and front mazda logos. Soon ill be painting my rims and putting red lug nuts on. Are there any cheap mods preferably exterior that has been done and looks good?

What do you consider 'cheap'? .....


- Fender Strakes (if your into them)
- Tint
- Clear / Smoked Corner Lights (I wouldn't go blacked out... defeats the purpose of why they are there)
- Eyelids
- Exhaust Tips
- Aero Kit (Can find separate pieces for reasonably cheap)

Just a quick little list, but it all comes down to how 'cheap' you are lol

If youre doing the wheels, you may as well paint the calipers and disc guards. A cheap job that will cost you 1 can of high heat brake paint, i'm guessing about $20 over there, finish off with a set of stickers and very smart,

A cheap mod...hmmmm...well, if you have HID, put some color in your headlights...maybe 8k or 10k

its not that im cheap haha its just i cant work currently because of my sport but i dont want that to stop making my 8 look nice. cheap is 50-150. im defiantly going to look more into the corner lights clear they look very nice and im going to get the raceroots catback soon so no need for tips.

simonmd i am also doing the calibers to match the lugs and inserts yours look nice.

Yes, its a pretty cool mod that isnt expensive, this is what it looks like with the wheels back on,

As long as it hasn't been riced out, your car already looks nice.

oh wow those are beautiful. The Last Friday in march im getting my rims done but still dont know what way to go with for paint. Currently im thinking black rustoleum with a gloss protective coat over. i pretty much want mine exactly like yours but hub painted too, what did you do, it looks awesome.

RXeligion no doubt the car is beautiful the way it is but i want to give it a personal look no ricing will be happening haha

Just dont paint your fender vents red like i did. If you do though dont tell anyone. You will take alot of **** for it.

I did a thread of exactly what I did here- https://www.rx8club.com/rx-8-multime...brakes-243079/

You'll need a can of high temp brake spray paint, one is plenty to do all four sets. I dont know what colour your car is but you can get quite a few colours anyway. Some prefer just to do black so they are just smartened up, others like a colour to make them stand out. The RX8 stickers are a special high temp vinal and you can find them on Ebay. Ive seen a pic of a car with black calipers and white lettering and it looked very smart indeed.
