It looks good.
I got it from an online decals / sticker company in the UK. (car specialists)
Im sure you can find a local equivalent.
I'm afraid I cant remember the company name though....

I heard a rumor that Mazda was interested in buying back the yellows. Does anyone have any information on that?

Let me guess a Mazda salesperson told you that?? Why in earth would Mazda buy back 4 year old cars based only on color. If they wanted some yellow 8's they just could mix up some more paint and run a few 2008's off in yellow.

Nice yellow.... gotta show some love for the yellows!
I like how you painted the "diffuser" on the back yellow as well. If I ever got a body kit for my 8 I would have done the same thing....

yeah, you cant see it in the pic but we wrapped the doors in black carbon fiber vinyl, the inserts are custom painted lexan covered in yellow carbon fiber vinyl and until I get my ligting situated I used 2 pieces behind the lexan to "light up" the logo, I also have Soundstream 8's in the doors, and a 6 1/2" plus monster tweeters in kick panels on the floor. I tried to take a pic at the show I was in, but it's a little blurry, I'll have real pics of everything once we're done.
