Here's my Whitewater Pearl. This is one of my first time tries at attaching a photo. This photo was taken shortly after I applied 3 coats of Zaino Z5, Z2, and Z6. Since then I've done two more coats and added the clear corners. Found Stoner's Invisible Glass since then -- which is amazing stuff. I'm planning on taking a series of art shots of my 8 as I travel across country soon. Maybe I can post some here (if I can figure out better to get the right size, pixels, etc).

Cyprus is an island near Greece, in the Meditteranean sea.
We are the main importer country of JDM cars around Europe each year.
Anyway, hope you liked my new toy.

god, I love the way the whitewater pearl looks for the RX-8. I had a white honda civic and I hated the color (vowed never to get another white car again....gets too dirty), but in all honesty I think it's the best color out there for the 8, and that is saying A LOT for all the colors that are out there.

I don't think of my Whitewater Pearl RX8 as being "white." It has more of an iridescent nacre appearance to the pearl paint. Especially when it has a high gloss achieved from layers of Zaino polish. I've had people come up to my "white" car and then get down close to the paint and exclaim that it's not really white, but more of a mica look or having a pearlescent look to it. That's exactly right. Really nice color. I'd love to have "white" rims, too, but that's probably only a dream due to limited cash.

It's about time I posted here. Trying to keep with a clean look; here's what I've done with my car:
K&N drop in filter
Royal Purple transmission & rear differential fluid swap
Clear corners with clear amber burning LEDs
Stealth bulbs on turn signals front and back
White painted rear rotary accent
RX8Club.com logo from www.polakgraphics.com
Zoom-Zoom sticker
Front splash guards (I think any car with the aero package is incomplete without, IMHO)
My plans from here are to get some new wheels (light weight and Autocross B-Stock friendly; any suggestions?), B-pillar appliques (probably the JDM ones), and... i think that's it. Strakes; yea, nay? i'm thinking nay...
