WOW its almost like a grey scale rx-8. i actully like stock better but it is deffinity a different look!

Romeo 09-29-2006 07:11 PM

yeah, my rx-8 is black so it wouldnt look this good. Its close to Greyscale, but theres a bit of red, yellow and blue in those lights if you look

BunnyGirl 09-29-2006 07:56 PM

I actually like that, except it wouldn't look so good on Winning Blue. Looks perfect on the gray. Good job!! :)

Wait for them to leak. Peel apart and pop the red out glue back into 1 pc.

j/k

Im sure if you put them in a oven for a little bit they would be easy to pull apart and tinker with.

i think it would look sweet on a yellow.

SayNoToPistons 09-29-2006 09:11 PM

Hmm.. a much much cleaner look!

in some states it's illegal for the light to not reflect SOME red (there is a required amount in square centemeters if in one of these states and varrys per state) but lit or not, there must be some red.

Its a film so if you decide you don't like them or a cop gives you trouble you can just remove them. They are precut to fit your lights too so easy to install. I cant personally say I have them but I am planning on getting some soon and I will let you know. Anyone else hear about this product?

I don't know, this is what I planned on doing...

drifter_d 09-30-2006 07:43 AM

wow. the photoshop by abbid and the pic from Tayler both really look good.

'87 Turbo II 09-30-2006 11:35 AM

Tayler's photoshop looks more legal, you'd still need SOME reflective material, but you could go black housings like mazda does with the Mazda3 sport and the Mazda6 sport.

Romeo, it looks realy good!

Can you post some more pics?

... that was photoshoped, I didnt really Do it in real life.

but if you want to see what something "custom" might look like, let me know. i'll do a quick photoshop of it and post it so you might have an idea of what it might look like...

please dont ask me to change your white 8 into a blue one or something, just google a blue rx8!! Im talking about "custom" work.

anyway, let me know...
...be creative... the more far out (even if you just want to see it for the look or for a laugh, still be creative) the better.

I LOVE the stock tailights, but those don't look that bad.

Romeo,

I was thinking of adapting the side view mirrors so that they could be easily removed and replaced with brushed aluminum (or black) plates for days at the track. I was wondering what each of these options would look like with a copper red paint job.

Uh..whats it matter what it looks like? If it's for the track only (which is absolutely has to be, rofl..) then why care about the looks? BTW, if you do make them, I'd be down for a set in Black :)

Mazdaspeed RX8 ver2 10-02-2006 12:04 AM

Good way to attract attention and get a ticket.
