7andan8, naughty, naughty!!

But then I guess 10034 miles separation might just allow for some playful comments without any dire consequences!

Hope the pics come out. well I am a 21 year old young prof. and I have had the car for a week now. so far I have added strakes, 10% carbon fiber tint, yellow fogs, side skirt, and chrome gas door. the first night I had the car was a friday night, I took two girls out with me and they sat in the back on the way to the club, I look back and well, lets just say the party started without me, the RX-8 worked it's magic and I decided their and then that the RX-8 was a good idea. lol

Looks great Street! You've been busy your first week! My old puter isn't pulling up the pics (don't know where that problem may be). But they look good none the less even in small scale.

Next time take a couple of pics of the chicks in the back seat!!

yeh.. haha cuz as u know the pearl paint is pricey and can be tricky to match. Lcuky for the rear only the boot/lid had to be repainted, they warned me that if color didnt match id have to do the whole rear.. but the guys did a good job matchin it, looks perfect.

the mazda emblem and word both leave holes in the rear.. so had to be welded up. the rx8 word is only stuck on.

Thanx

Well imagine the car now without that chromy bit... fink it would look way too plain without the chrome. but each to their own, appreciate ur opinion

Speaking of debadging, does anyone know where someone can get the Mazdaspeed emblem to replace the Mazda one? Also does it fit right in it place, use the same holes?

Thanks
