Question RX-8 Front Bumper Bumps? What??
I keep seeing pictures of 8's from Europe with these little diamond-shaped bumps on the front bumpers, under the headlights. Does anyone know what these things are and why they aren't on U.S. 8's? The car below has them:

Wait, the US didn't get these? I thought all HID-equipped vehicles had to have them.

All 231 (6 port) models over here have them as it's a requirement for HID lights. Good for soaking pedestrians and emptying your washer bottle quickly
