I'm not a big fan of blacking out the 8's tail lights. People are crappy drivers as it is and having my tail lights be dimmer than stock is just asking for trouble.

Love the wheels! I think it would look more clean without the cf sides and lip but that's just my opinion...stilll looks great!

Looks good. +15 is really aggressive for the 8.

I need to post up pics with my updated wheels...

WOW. Anymore pics of the rear taillights Rawr? They look awesome like that on a BB. Definitely desirable outcome if you ask me.

Also anymore pics of that trunk spoiler? Now that I see that it looks real nice. OEM or the EVO-R replica?

... hate those red taillights. I never got why people wanted to do that. Car looks good, I think the kit would be better if OEM paint matched tho.

Yeah we both did red tails at the same time and I really like it on BB. Evo-R carbon no idea if its a replica I know it was money. Its pretty legit I stuck it on for him.

I think rear lip spoilers are pretty sharp on the 8.

The 2009 OEM lip spoiler looks boss. Not sure if it's different than the older model.. I think it is...could be wrong though.

Its more thick than the EU spec and 09 spec lids. Maybe ill go run down his car while he is at work tomorrow, but it will be raining for the next 365 days so not sure when we will get a good picture.

You need to live in the PACNW to understand why that is not going to happen I'm a clean freak with my car and it has only been washed once in last 45+ days. Which I did around 40˚ with a just a few hours break from the rain.
