nice! looks clean, but i guess you need more black to accent the black emblems.

P.S. get rid of those vortex generators!

well yea as you can see it still has the dealer plates because i just got it not to long ago.

Im still going to tint the windows and smoke the tail lights as well.

Why should i get rid of them? i think they look good, and i like that it is one more black thing on the car as well. I really dont think they look that bad. i realize they are cheap but its not like they look horrible

well i dont know, they kind of stand out too much [really doesnt flow with the curves]
and too Evo"ish"

but hey, its your car... just an opinion.

anyways, what are the specs on the car?

AT/MT
Year
Miles

Nice looking 8, the new ones look more meaner, except for the evo'ness lol's... the rx8 looks sooooooooo much better and cleaner without stick ons, leave those to the people who whish they had an evo

Those evo vortex generators aren't even on correctly. You look like your missing one on the passengers side. I have to agree with everyone else that it's not a good fit for the 8...but it's your car, even if you make 8's look bad. jk :smoker:

On a positive note, everything else is looking good.

I think if you are going to leave the vortex generators on... you should at least place them evenly... like straighten them up and space them out evenly.

I like that white and black look... Emblems look good.

Take that junk on your roof off or line it up right, then put the "-" back on between the X and 8 and you're set :bottom:

i think your missing one of those shark fins on the rightside. looks off... lol

fix it son looks terrible

Paint yo rims black then it'll look good.

vortex generator + RX8 = fail

Yes i realize i messed up the placement lol, i thought i had it right and when i got to the end i realzied i messed up, they are coming off no matter what because of that spacing error i just havent done it yet. I was just debating possibly buying them again and trying to place them correctly but now i c your guys point, it is way to evo'ish so they will be off today.

Anyways my spoiler gets here on the 3rd so then ill have that and with the spoiler their i wont care about the vortex generators.

Getting my rims painted is next on the agenda, i really like the stock 18's i dont see anything wrong with them but they MUST be black.

Oh and for the person who asked for the specs on my 8:

2005
75k miles
All stock
Just bought it in January

what are the roof strakes for???

They increase your speed through the corners by generating gayness.


Nice emblems.

^^ +1

either get a massive STI or EVO wing so the Vortex Gaynorators have a purpose, or take them off because they look like shit.

Nice emblems :)

their coming off i promise!

i just put them on 2 days ago and my spoiler gets here on the 3rd so i was just waiting until im installing that on thursday to take them off.

Oh and the reason i dont have the dash between the RX and 8 on the trunk is because i put them back on at my buddies house and when i was putting them on i realized i had forgotten the dash, turns out it stuck to the piece of newspaper i was painting them on.

When i got home i found the newspaper and it was stuck to it, again im just waiting until i work on my car on thursday and i will be re-applying that as well

Welcome to the board. I see you found a quick way to meet people here :)

aren't those roof things supposed to feed air to a rear wing?

Looks good. I'm glad to hear those vortex generators are coming off lol

Well ive already stated they are coming off but if they werent the generators would be feeding air to my rear wing that will be here on the 3rd. But regardless they will b coming off on thursday.

Hahahaha yes i did find a way to meet people quickly lol.
