Yes, I drive it lowered. However I work from a home office, so she stays in the garage for the most part.

I think painting the front emblem black would look great with everything going on.

Also, Turtle Wax I think it is has some black trim restorer that would work wonders for like, the rear shrouds.

I can dig it though, no worries. I approve, I just think that'd really help set it all off.



Man, I wish that picture I posted was bigger. Stupid cell phone pics..

Btw, to those that don't know, the surprise is behind the VR Rx8.

Copper red only came on the Shinka's. If you have a 2004 then you have a VR.
