Don't care for those 2 stripes going down the middle but whatever floats your boat...post some bigger pics...Whats that graphic say on the side?
Bold move blacking out headlights like that...should go ahead and black out side markers or clear them

The stripes and stickers/lettering? whatever on the door should be removed as soon as possible. Other than that, looks fine.

damn, I wish CROSSFIRE was on that poll. 
how the hell do you get any light out of those headlamps? What does the side of your cars say?

you guys are too harsh. when i had my 8, I wondered what it would look like with racing stripes. Although I thought that two stripes wouldn't fit well, so I was leaning toward one stripe.
I don't think it looks bad. I kinda like it. However, I don't aggree with whatever is on the door. It simply does not complement the stripe. A long or two long rectangular striations combined with a rather abstract, cicular thing.....not workin....
I think the stripes are just a little too wide, the RX8 doesn't have that face for the stripes to blend in with the overal look of the car. They stand out too much.

I did this to a 1989 Eclipse. (offset the stripes to one side to try and balance out the bump in the old eclipse's hood) It was a cheap car and I was young, and I liked it for about 6 months (I guess I was going for the whole matchbox car thing). I personally would never have done this to a nice car like an RX-8 (my eclipse cost me $2500 back in 96). My guess is that your young and probably thought this would look good. It doesn't, and in 6 months you'll feel the same way. Let me give you some advice though, take off the racing stripes now (assuming they are stickers), because in 6 months when you are board with it, the damage will already be done. Your whole car will oxidize and fade over summer leaving you with two big dark lines down your whole car and on the side where the lettering is. Anyway as somebody said earlier the RX-8 doesnt have the right lines for these kind of stripes.
