Welcome! Nordic Green is one of the better colors in my opinion. Good choice! I hope you will stick around the forum, there are lots of smart people here and lots of good information.

the number of NGs is a lot smaller than others since it was discontinued. you don't get a lot of new people showing off their car b/c it's usually when someone buys new or when someone adds a mod.

What would really set those rims off is if you would paint the gunmetal parts nardic green.

Just a thought since you have some time.

i made a thread earlier about what tire sizes i should be running and what people usually run that makes them rub. for the fronts ill be fine with the usual setup but for the 19x9.5 back ill be using the 265s as opposed to the 275s that rub.

what you guys think?

The bolts can be removed and put back after painting.

It would be unique to you and your car only.

Exclusivity.

I think it would take your car to another level. JMHO.

Hey anyone have any pictures of a nordic green rx8 with stock rims and red painted calipers? I like the stock rims too much to get new ones, but I was interested in painting my calipers red, and would first like to see'em before I decide whether or not to do it.

Also, a friend of mine who races mazda's said that the stock rim painted black was nice. Thoughts? Pics?

^^ and why not?

Nordic Green looks like black most of the time.

I'm not a fan of red calipers anyways, but why not Red with Nordic Green?
