We had a blast Phil, thanks to Vegas 8's and Sin City for a fun-as-hell time.

I'll be back next year, for sure!

Any of you entering a car or going to the Cache Valley Cruise-In this weekend? I'll be there with my car (not my rx8, maybe I'll take it next year) and my motorcycle.

Hey, Roidz, sorry I missed your post. I only check in here once in a while. Check out SLCRX8.com for the local scene.

Hope to meet you!

Thanks guys. And eyelids are next on the list. I ordered clear corners over 2 months ago from mazdaparts.com, but I haven't seen them yet. Where's a good place to get eyelids?

I got mine on eBay, direct from Japan. $59, shipped.

Only obtain your eyelids from me. If you get them elsewhere, you wil regret it. I am not lying.

LOL, a misunderstanding.

I got my clear corners on eBay from Japan for $59.

The eyelids I make will cost you $80 for an unpainted set. If I paint them, it depends on your color. Some Mazda paints are single-stage and a painted set will run you $150. Colors such as silver, TiGr, and BB are single-stage paint.

If it's a 2-stage paint, like VR, it will cost you $200 for a painted set. That's because the paint alone is $75 for a half pint!

What's your color code? It's on the sticker on the inside of your door. I'll check on a paint match.

If you want to have a favorite body shop paint and install them for you, that's OK too. They all charge a different rate. Mine come with a clear topcoat, and buffed to a high gloss. You won't get that at every bodyshop.

One of the local club members came by the house and installed the eye lids that I purchased from you. They look great and I get a lot of comments on the fit and quality.

Thanks, Phil, glad to have been of service. They look really sharp on black 8's, IMO.

I think it was chunbelievable who is waiting on a VR set from me. Tell him that they well be done soon. I sold-out my first batch of VR's and he is next in line. The bad news is, it's a 2-stage paint and they are $200/set, though I'm pretty sure I told him that when we were at the bar. That DOES include shipping, though.

Hey JT, I'd be happy to post the pics of my installation of the VR's if you think that will get some orders for you.
