Nice! Love the mirrors! Are those Euro-only mirrors, or aftermarket?

Good luck with the car!

Yeah awesome aren't they, will take some more closer pictures tomorrow if I get time to wax etc. They're UK only. Basically mine's an RX8 Evolve, they did 400 in Copper Red Mica and 100 in Phantom Blue Mica paint. However where you got the Shinka, we got:

RX8 Evolve
Launched in 2006 the ‘Evolve’ was the first special edition for the UK. The new model was named after the original Mazda concept car seen in Detroit in 2000 and was limited to a production run of just 500.
Based on the 231 PS (170 kW; 228 hp) high-power version,it had several unique exterior features. These include a choice of two exclusive colors (Copper Red Mica 400 and Phantom Blue Mica 100), unique dark silver 18 × 8J alloy wheels, a polished aluminum Rotary crest on the front air dam, dark silver bezel headlamps, sports door mirrors, polished aluminum side air outlet fins, Rotary branded B-pillar trims, chrome exhaust surrounds.


Inside, the Evolve features unique stone leather and Alcantara sporty seat trim, plus black leather-wrapped steering wheel, gear **** and hand-brake lever. The Evolve Special Edition with its enhanced specification was great value for money the same price as a standard RX-8 231 PS model with leather trim.
So, got my body kit on order, should be here this week, will fit that on... contemplating a super charger at some point or at a point I need a rebuild if i ever do... who knows... however, some darker 25% tints on the windows would be nice as well.

Some pictures of the new wheels, doesn't do them justice to be honest, they have a proper pearl that can only be seen in the flesh...
