Vancouver gaining a riced 8??

Well, I think Vince will be getting some competition for kits and mods in a little bit here. I was over at BoyzClub talking with a guy there, and they are currently doing work on a blue 8 for a guy, the car however is for his son, who is only 15!!!
It is getting everything possible done by the sounds of it, they are adding bodykit (unknown type) already dropped springs in, they are putting 7 monitors, all new speaker system, and the shop next door is doing engine work, so the guy didnt know too much about that part of it yet....
And to top it off... its getting a massive CF spoiler....

I know the kid will love it, but at the same time... I am gonna save judgement until I see the finished product of this RX-8 potential rape/rice showcar.

It is being done in Richmond, so, if anyone sees it around when finished, lets see if we can get some pics to decide wether its a yay, or ney.

Well, all I can say, especially since it is a blue 8, and I drive a blue 8, is that I hope it is tastefully done, and that the kid appreciates it, and doesnt end up being one of those kids with endless speeding tickets which daddy pays for. Last thin we need is a bad rep which somebody doing that would give us.

Hi Guys! Thank you for all the comments.

Just want to clarify a couple of things: -
- I'm a car lover like you all!!!!
- The monitors, speakers & amps et al...are in there because its going to be a show car, which is being sponsored by Nakamichi & Boyz Club (Buddy own)
- Son doesn't have a driver license yet! He just a RX8 fan like u guys (who thinks he's going to be driving it, but I've got a 90 Volvo waiting for him until his N is removed - ..pshhhhhh....he doesn't know that!)
- Stuff in there are to beautify the RX8 like you guys but not to ruin it, its a matter of taste - my tatse.
- Check out the finished product at the next DTP on June 26 @BC Place or PM me if you have any suggestions.

See ya. :D

Cant wait to see, which is why I was reserving my opinion. If you get a chance, post some pics of the progress.

Yeah, I am going to try to bring the dvd of our drive we did, courtesy of Eldon, over to Boyz Club, and show Clarence on Wednesday, probably around 1pm, if you want to check it out, drop by, and you can show off what your plans are for the 8.

Was curious, what are the engine plans for the car too, Clarence doesnt know much about engines, so, he didnt want to say what he thought is going in, since he wouldnt know.

There is no engine plan. Just Optima battery, Ground kit, K&N intake,Greddy Tower Bar, and some dress-up. Greddy Turbo Kit may be later.
