the fenders on our cars are like tin metal. they're very very flimsy (sp?). rolling would retain the metal and still have a bit of more support IMO. plus, what are you gonna do about the fender lining??

 

Olorin. Use no limit's body work guy. They sub all their work out to magic customs in middle river. The only way to get in touch with him is with the cell number. Let me know if you want it.

 

Yeah, I'm not sure how they'd handle the lining. Do you happen to have a heat gun that I could "rent" with that roller? I'm thinking I may want to do this myself, and if you do have both, I'd really love to be able to get the equipment sometime today or early tomorrow.

You know, I actually took my car to Mike at Magic Customs last Wednesday, and he said he'd most likely trim the fenders as well. He couldn't do the work until sometime next week so I didn't drop it off. Would the body shop guy at No Limit roll instead of trim?

 

i do have both. but someone else is renting the roller right now and i left my heat gun at work

 

Well it looks like I can get a heat gun pretty cheap. Any idea how long your roller will be out?

 

Just checkin in. I live in So MD with an 04 in Sunlight Silver.

 

I've been in jersey for a week and for some reason I happen to see an rx8 every corner. Not this many in MD for sure.

 

Hi and Bye.

Been here for years but hardly posted.
Sadly my 8 got totaled on Rt2 a few weeks ago. Keep looking behind while stopped at lights folks.



Someone make me an offer for my winter wheels/tires. Best offer by 09:00 Friday secures.

BTDT. Crumple zones FTW. Hope you're OK and the idiot who hit you has a broken nose and gets dumped by their insurance co (after they pay up).

Bye.

There are many more 8's out there if you want another. If mine got crushed I'd definitely get another one. But I'm weird.

 

@redmarlin where at on route 2 did you get hit? Sorry about your 8!!! I hope ur ok ?

 

i also got into a hit and run on rt2 from the back.. about 3 months ago..bastards..

 

Hit and run? Wait a minute... You're driving an RX-8. Unless they were driving a 911 GT or your car was disabled, no way should they have been able to run away!

 

hahaha thats funny

 

I'm doing fine thanks - car did an admirable job at sacrificing itself for me.
It was Rt2 and Jones Station, speed limit 50.
I'll miss the RX-8 and would get another but I'm about to be posted abroad. It was the most entertaining involving production car I've owned.
I liked this requiem https://www.rx8club.com/rx-8-discussion-3/proper-requiem-rx-8-a-210630/

 

First post

Abingdon, MD (Harford County)

Just got my 2011 8 a couple months ago. I've been wanting one for a long time, but waited until my kids were out of the child seats

 

^^ welcome to the club.

 

Welcome, steadybdub

I work on base in Edgewood and drive around Abingdon all the time, lunch friends houses etc etc, if you see a modded Ti Gray that sounds like a jet engine wave...

 

Anyone gonna be in or near OC next week? I'll be down starting tomorrow, through next Saturday (16th), if anyone would like to hook up. The 8 is clean and ready for a trip.

 

So far there's a red one I pass that works in APG and a very "electric" yellow. I did however pass a gray one on 136 a few weeks back and they waved. Maybe it was you? LOL Kinda made my day, since we are sort of a rare breed.

 

The red on e and the yellow one also work on base with me. The guy who drives the yellow one will pretty much never make it out to a meet due to an overbearing wife, and Ive tried to talk to the guy with the red one and he was pretty snobby and thought his was faster, I did not get to open my hood, lol...

 

Ok, so how about a mini Maryland meet on Sunday the 24th around the Inner Harbor Baltimore/Columbia/Ellicot City area? We can plan on more things depending on how many of us are free..

 

Even tho i live in VA I am only an hour away from the inner harbor depending on how fast I drive down the parkway. I usually drive an average of about 80-85 every time I goto drill at ft mead.

 

Wow where in ft. Meade? I got o drill there with the 818th.

 

I dive the Black 8 on APG, not the one with the wing. @ Rotr8 I cant believe I still havent seen you around. I have been looking for a modded 8, no luck. Also drive the black FD. See ya guys around

 

Ohhh. I actually work at Edgewood (ECBC) but most people refer to it as APG, I eat at Mc Shanes all the time let me know if you want to meet up and have lunch Ill hang out (for an hour) or we could meet up after work one day.
