maybe its just me, but i feel like the crash bar would look nicer more of a gloss black, or possibly get something to cover up the holes in it at the very least. *getting ideas as i wish to do the same on my cars front bumper*

rear could use some rain gutter mesh. home depot sells it for like $2.50 a section (should only need one, two at the most), just trim it to size fasten it to the bumper somehow and paint it black. but hey those are just my plans its your car and your tastes lol

Nice 8 regardless!

Rotary RX-8 and Nopstnz8 its actually made out of 1/2 plywood sealed with spar polyurethane and then primer, paint and clear coat. Mounted to the frame towards the rear on each side, the front crash bar, both sides by the oil coolers from the same place they mount, and then screws under the bumper. I

I still have some work to do on it though.

Thanks for the good words though.

He has a template for that splitter sitting in his garage. Start sucking up now.

Adam, if you want some mesh for the rear I still have a bunch left from mine.

Thanks, but I actually prefer it without the mesh Tim.

Those TSW's are looking real good, not sure if I'm 100% on the color of them with TI grey but I love that style though. I've had my eye on the Enkei EKM3's or the Rajins which are similar style.

So, after getting in a minor fender bender and needing to get my whole front end repainted, I decided to have the full car resprayed to my liking since there were some other things I wanted to add and take care of to complete the look. The car is now 100% dent/scratch/rust free And every panel matches. I think it came out gorgeous.

Newest additions are the authentic MS rear (to complete the full authentic kit), KEI office eyelids, black fender strakes, trunk debadge, and roof panel painted satin black (to match the satin black lower mazdaspeed kit accents - gunmetal doesn't so good next to titanium gray IMO)

Lemme know what ya think.

^^ Is it really necessary? I've never really had a problem with chips or scratches on the front, only right behind the wheels on the skirts, which wasn't very noticeable either.. how much would that cost? I'm pretty damn near broke now lol
