Washed ren today. She got a tint job for my birthday. 20% in back, 45% in front.

I'm thinking about smoking the clear corners with 5%

Looks exactly like my car when I brought it home for the first day. Minus the tint though.

Hey thanks. Gotta keep the 04 clean and lookin like its brand new.

Alt your winter rims look 200x better than mine. I can't really complain because the guy I bought my car off threw them in for free with a set of blizzaks but damn... I think he bought the ugliest 17"s he could find. Doesn't help that they have a thick, permanent coat of brake dust and other crap on them.

I like how the brakes fill up the 17"s though, looks kinda cool.

Used a Nikon D80 so I can't really take any credit for the pics lookin good. The rear shot is a HDR I put together though.

Nice find Doze...

Had the opportunity the other day to check out the New RX 2009 at the dealers and I didn't like it...

OUrs is much nicer...looks like there is something missing on the bottom. It was a vr with pumpkin color seats that were very ugly!!

I don't like it. Too busy and makes the eight look flat nosed. Chrome rims and bad eyelid application don't help.

Also some more pics of my 8 I found





This is my favorite, looks like it came right out of a brochure.

i actually really like that RX8 as a whole. yeah...the eyelids could use some more double stick tape but other than that the car is amazing.
