Finally! ZachLegends NEW RX8 Thread!!!

Well guys, after a long drawn out period of selling my old 8 and deciding on a new one. My new RX8 is finally here! First off lets say bye to my old one,
my 2004 AT Sunlight Silver with too many mods to list

OK! Time for my new baby!

(gotta do it right with black and red leather)

And most importantly:

That's right boys and girls. ZachLegend has become a man and gotten a MT. And I must say, I love it SO much more, this car is a whole new animal. I see why people gave me so much **** before, it was for my own good. haha. I love this car so much and it's SUCH a blast to drive. So here's the proper introduction:

2004 Brilliant Black MT RX8, 53000 miles
Grand Touring. Red/Black Leather Interior, Navi, Full Authentic Veilside Bodykit, Borla Exhaust, K&N Drop in Filter.

Mods I have to put on: Red Interior LEDs, Ipod Hookup, Evo-R CF Rear Lip

To Do list when I get money: Red Corners (Yes, I don't like clear corners, EVERYONE gets them), 19" black with red lip rims, 19x9 in front and 19x10 or some other agressive width, if anyone has any recommendations for rims, PLEASE let me know. And lastly, I'm probably going to paint my emblems, haven't decided what color yet. Maybe a cold air intake and I may go catless. Haven't decided.

The only mod I've put on the car is this one:

Name:  newbaby4.jpg

Size:  52.6 KB

Christmas Pedo Bear, I dyno'd it, I'm getting about 10whp with it. Very good mod, only cost me $1 plus shipping!


Sorry about the length of this thread, i'm just so stoked. So there you guys go!

Looks nice..

Only thing is, the failside front end looks like it's abit mis-matched, the right side by the hood doesn't fit well, and those fogs look... odd there.. :P

Congrats. Never been a big fan of the Veilside front and the fog lights do look a bit odd close in the center. Is one brighter than the other or was it camera angle?

I didn't like the Veilside kit till I saw it in person. I really like it now. The hood and bumper match perfect, it's just the angle of the picture. As far as the emblems on the side, those are coming off. Thanks guys

You guys act like I put it on, haha. I'm probably keeping it until I get some side strakes. People on this forum just look for things to criticize instead of compliment, its funny. Especially when your 8 is DEAD STOCK you shouldn't rag on people's mods. Not to single anyone out or anything....
