C.L.E.A.N.! Looks great, Slip!
I'm still looking at doing something with the color of mine. Has anyone tried that temporary body paint that washes off? I've considered it, just to see what a darker wheel would look like. Dunno how "temporary" it really is, though. I am almost sold on powdercoat over paint, too. blah blah blah... I still don't know what I want...

thanks c&d! yeah it depends on the light conditions! sometimes it's blue, sometimes its green, and at nite it looks black.... but you really have to see it in real person, as digital pics doesn't do it justice. my jaw dropped when i first saw my nordic mica green 8!

I've been told I drive a black car, a blue car and a grey car (yes there is a shade of grey esp showing in bright sunlight). Even the dealer put down black when I brought my car in one cloudy morning... LOL.

There comes a time in a mans life where he has to decide on rims, after looking around for awhile and not wanting to spend to much money, i have came across these, i think that the gun metal will go good with the green and i plan on powder coating my strakes and accents the same color. So what you guys think?

im glad i went with a bronze color. i wanted gold (various advans),but thought it would clash to much. these are pretty decent. in the shade they are low pro looking with out being the typical black on blah blah (the first color you think of that goes with green). in the sun they shine bright enough to give off a nice contrast.
its actually pretty funny to look at your car from different perspectives or times of day and have it look totally different because of the green paint changing colors & the rims changing too.

I have a 2004 green RX-8 and love the color. Same color I had with my first Colombia Bike. I have not driven it since May 22 when I broke my ankle. Supposed to be okay by next week. To late for this weekend's Chin event at Homestead. You do not know how much you love a car and the way it handles until you cannot drive it and are being hauled around in your wife's SUV.
