Mine's feeling left out...

 

i love my phantom blue, and its the only one in town

 

Let's see some modded PB's!!! A Vertex kitted PB with a proper stance is needed here

 

There are no modded PB's.... we all roll stock yo!

 

Get on it, then!
Lookin good! Any mods?
not the biggest fan of VL. I opted for the MS because if its wider opening (and looks, of course!). Though I do agree that we need to see some more kitted out PB's!
If PB's came stock like yours, this would be a better world!!

 

Just been out autocrossing my PB today she need a new clutch though so I am not sure if she will make it through the day tomorrow. I think I will order a new clutch tonight and race her anyway. I may just have to drive home in 3rd gear to stop the slipping.

 

I like your kind of stock.

 

My car went into the garage today to get all the parts installed. I should have it back by Friday so I am very excited, I went by the garage today and had a look at the parts mounted on the car still black and not fitted correctly but car looks great :-)

 

lookin forward to pics! Did the shop mention any difficulties? Or did they even do a test fit, yet?

I was gonna have my bumper painted LAST week, but I ended up getting pretty busy. This week isn't lookin good, either

 

was I the only one who noticed a stealth PB in the Mid-Ohio car corral pix thread ...?

 

Not really any problems but mine is an after market so they have to fit it all, its going to be quite expensive.
The rear spoiler was not a good fit on the boot so I am having them mold it to the trunk lid.
The Front bumper does not house the fog lights so I will be losing them for the time being.
I went into the shop after they had done about 7 hours work and all the parts were on the car but not secured. Even though the parts were black it looked great.

If yours is a already fit correctly you could just pay them to spray it for you, maybe even do the undercoat yourself. They told me I will also need to blend the hood or you will notice the difference.

 

Had my phantom blue 8 for about 6 months and cant get enough of it

its an auto by the way, still loving it

 

Here is my Phantom Blue having just had the body kit installed, I have already added this video but think it should also be added to the Phantom Blue thread.

Nice job on the vid and the wing! Like it!

Though personally for the front mesh, id prefer it in black rather than shiny silver...

Otherwise, nicely done mate!

 

Thanks, I agree about the mesh in the front bumper, it came silver and really bright I hope it will dull down a little over time. If not I may spray it or something.

 

Looks good man. Maybe some rear spacers.

 

I cannot add spacers and stay in the STX autocross class unless it is to adjust aftermarket wheels back to stock specs (I think). I see coil-overs in my future but wont be dropping the height too much maybe 20-30mm I think that will really help the profile. I need to stop the wife driving my car at that point though else my front bumper will scuffed up of every little bump. Like all cars its a working progress.

 

I am selling some Phantom Blue parts if anyone is interested check out this thread

Has anyone used Dr. Colorchip on their PB? I've searched and found several posts where people were going to give it try, but haven't seen any feedback re results.

The track has been hard on my baby.

Thanks!

 

I've used it on my black cherry mica. It is good for small dings but not scratches. There is a great demo on you tube that was done by a guy at a BMW meet I believe. It works - but it is just a cosmetic fix. It won't look perfect. What it accomplishes is sealing off the ding so that you don't rust. In the process, it takes away the silver spot so you can't see the ding unless you look closely. For $49 it is a good deal. Hope this helps you.

 

Probably me. I'm pretty sure I was the only PB there.

 

Thanks! I have more than my share of small chips.

 

check this out to get an idea of the process involved. It's easy.

 

My 06 RX8 is a "Shinka" model...in phantom blue. Compliments of my husband finding it. The seats are amazing in design. The seating has ridges..there are some photos with that style. She's a gorgeous piece of eye "Candy".

 

I need to know how to install my strakes..any how to guides available?
