Bumper, lights, hood, and fenders I assume.


As per this thread. Whatever turd pic I could grab from my phone further more compressed by rx8club... Haven't whipped out a real camera in a while, much less my DSLR. Drove it less than 1000 miles this year.



Edit: Damn pics looks like they're fresh off a 35mm Kodak disposable.























Buddy's mint 98 MKIV. Basic bolt ons, not even BPU. HKS 4inch TBE, HKS coilovers, Rod Millen wing, and a few other stuff.

Picture I took this morning. Honestly, I hate this color, but I also bought the car like 11 hours after deciding "hey, I want an RX-8!", so I wasn't too picky.

Why does the one in your pic look so much brighter than mine? This is the best mine has ever looked:



It's only sunny like 8 days a year here in Cleveland.

9k probably used an actual DSLR camera and not a black berry or iphone like everyone else does. And he probably waxed and buffed it and took great care of it. So that is why it looks much brighter because it simply is.

You my friend just made it to my sig.....

Also yes the camera and lighting plays the biggest part. 9K and I shoot a bit different. I love my fixed prime lenses for the great color and price but 9k still likes to shoot with telephoto lens. He is also much better at squaring up his shots then me.

Ah, yeah. Mine cleaned up pretty well, but it's too pearl-y for me. I liked the red on my '93 MR2 until it turned pink.

There is nothing pearly about Velocity Red Mica. If you think Toyota's lame *** Absolute Red is better than Velocity Red Mica then you need glasses.
