i dunno but its clean and nice

 

Guys,

I am pretty new to the forum.

I am currently looking at buying a Gray rx8.

But I am confused... what's the difference between a Ti gray and a Galaxy Gray?

Can someone enlighten me?

 

Galaxy grey is much darker. Just try looking for pictures of 8s in the two colors and you will see.

 

i have the t.grey and think it's in a class of it's own!

 

 

nice clean 8, I remember when mine sort of looked like that....lol

anyway here is an updated pic of mine... enjoy

 

Mmm i really like you car Alucard.
Are you ever on aim? I added you but you seem not to be on.

 

thanks alot

yea every now and then...

 

Thanks Guys.

Till today, I still cannot tell the difference... maybe when both the Ti and Galaxy gray are placed side-by-side.

Anyway, I am delighted to have place an order for an 08 6AT Gray ( i think it's an Galaxy Gray..). Can't wait to get my hands on them soon.

 

I'm here to distort this page's margins :P

 

 

i put a bunch of stuff on the before and after thread. so here's the link:

next to come:
special spoiler/wing, cf eyelids, lips (front and rear), and maybe sides. big brake kit, and ms struts! when the cash comes in we'll get a petit supercharger and fujitsubo exhaust (crossing fingers).

 

^^^ Looks good, but that shift boot is way to bright. You should of gone black with red stiching.

 

Here's mine. Just got new rims and tires and am loving my new look! Tell me what you think.

 

Last two pics!

 

definatley like those wheels better... good choice your car looks great

 

agreed but i didn't have much of a choice. chris needed to move it, and so i bought it. now that i have it in, it's starting to grow on me. i have a red interior theme going, so i think i'm gonna keep going with it. i've been toying with the idea of painting the bezels red too...

and the wheels do look much better! (your wheels... and mine, haha).

 

^^^ Thanks. Wait did you say you bought the shift boot from Chrism? If so, didn't he say that the pics make it look much brighter than it really is? If it is a darker red, then it might not be that bad.

 

yeah in person its a lot darker. The suede lights up with a flash so. It looks pretty decent. I'm actually pretty happy with it.

 

love the Volk GTS' I have the SF Challenges and I'm givin ya a heads up---go ahead and get an extra coat of clear on the polished lip. Ive had mine for two years and I have horrible pitting, real bad,,, after putting my oems back on for the winter I will have to get them proffessionally restored, money that could be better spent elsewhere...

 

Thanks. How much does that cost? Do you think it would even be worth it since it doesn't even snow where I live? Also, I might even swap out the wheels for the rainy season.

By the way yours look great as well! I had wanted to get the SF Challenges in gunmetal, but they were discontinued in that color and were a little to expensive for my budget at the time. I still love mine though.

 

 

^ Pic doesn't work.

 

umm thats a call you might ask someone with a polished lip that lives a non seasonal climate. I live in MD and its becoming a pattern for the last couple years that there is only winter and summer... the first winter I took them off and stored them away to avoid the snow(more so the Salt) but the second winter I got lazy and didnt take them off,,, biiigggggg mistake. I m not sure if its worth it but since its a rare wheel(was the fifth person to get a set in the states-told that by Mackin Industries(werent even on the internet yet)) that gets a lot of street cred I want to invest in restoring them,,, initial qoutes are around $100 a wheel... maybe be more since its getting gradually worse... I may just have to order new barrels from Mackin Industries-yikes dont even want to guess that cost, I was thinking about RE30s which look amazing on the 8, and this will deffinately be my next wheel(next wheel will not have polished lip, may be a couple years off though)
