Question Link to my Rx page... CHECK IT OUT and let me know what you think

I have a link here to a page I started to track the progressive build up on my Rx8 on the cardomain website. The top pics are the car as I bought it. The second pics are of the kit that I bought on one of my last trip to Japan. The last 2 pics are of me and the fiance' lookin good with the Baby. Unfortunately I have been traveling alot lately so I haven't been able to update the pics to include the kit installed and FULLY MOLDED to the body yet with the 15% Black Tint all around. When I get back from Italy I will be updating the page and then I will start a new thread so if you can just let me know what you think of where I am going with this and if you have any constructive Criticisms please let me know what you think. Thanks.

Already bought and installed the full kit however I went with the Low wing because I deffinately don't dig the Aircraft wing idea on the back of a car.
I like the unique and bold look. Graham the guy that I talked to in tokyo was a real nice guy and worked with me every step of the way. highly recomend japanparts.com if you are ever going to be in the japan area or if you can afford the shipment cost (which would have been alot if I shipped it)

Thats pretty cool. It seems sometimes that most people with 8's live in jersey. nice to here that people own 8's in the philly area also.

-Just a quick update, installed the MAZDASPEED exhaust and it is SICK!!!!
- I am working on replacing my camera right now seeing mine got damaged in my most resent trip. As soon as I get a camera that isn't smashed I will update these picks.

You need to black out the tail lights. Looks good otherwise.

I looked around for prices and best work and I honestly went to a shop called Amato's Automotive
233 Philmont Ave.
Featerville, PA 19053


This is on shop row but I saw the work he did with his own corvette and told him what i wanted from him and he MORE than came through for me.
the owner to talk to is Chuck Amato.
if you call him tell him Antonio recommended you and just so you know;
I have the entire kit fitted and edge molded for visual flow, side skirts fully molded to the body, rear aero wing fully MOLDED to the trunk, installation, paint and final prep paint coming this saturday. Hope this helps. I HIGHLY recommend this guy great job great price.

Why not just do a light vinyl film to black out the current lights?
