Got my 8!!!
 

Woo, just got my 8 yesterday and found this site today. I got a sexy Veloci Red with the 18" wheels, extra large brake pads and 6 CD changer, but I plan on buying a bunch of extra stuff, I also was thinking of completely decking it out with Gold Neon lights, gold rims and a gold vinyl on the sides with a decent size gold spoiler. What do you guys think?

erm. welcome?
gold trim is probably a bad idea.

make sure to paint the duct tape gold too.

Two words come to mind..... Ghetto Bling.

Yea, right.

Go for it and post pics. The red is full of gold flakes, and as much as I love my red/black theme, I'll be interested in seeing a red/gold theme.

Gold Neon lights

Go for it. peeps here complain about neon, but how much HP does the appearance pkg add (0), how mant hp do the strakes add (again 0 hp), not to mention some heavy ass 20 inch rims.

Congratulations on the new RX-8! :)

Welcome to the forum...

People here are usually very helpful but it seems as though gold trim is not a very popular option...

Always remember that it is YOU who is making the monthly payment and as long as it makes YOU happy, you made the right choice....

Won't stop us from occassionally making fun of you but to each his own...:p

It's ok, They're right, even my friend's told me not to go with the gold. they told me to put on the HKS exhaust and the Intake in first then go Chrome instead of gold. I want to get the Ings kit but won't be able to come up with the money even if I work everyday so I'm just gonna go with the veilside Ver. 1 kit

Much cheaper and has a nice look to it. But still you never know..
