i agree with debadging the front but i dont want to go through the hassle with painting the oem bumper, so instead im ordering an after market bumper. i have also seen your car a couple of times on the street and it looks super clean also!!

thanks, yeah i thought the pin stripe was a nice subtle touch, im not too sure if i wanna put a new front bumper on or not, cause the OEM one with the appearance package looks pretty good with MS side skirts
well still undecided but for now im getting the real tails smoked at 35 percent (maybe the winows, verdicts still out, suggestions?) mid next week. dont see too many whites with the tails smoked i think its gonna look good
but thanks for your inputs, those parts you linked me too are sweet, alot of $$$ tho

Rotary Recall
I just took my 07 RX8 in for the recall on the rotary having lack of power. What impressed me was Mazda extended the warranty to 7 years, 70,000 miles on the motor. Didn't think I had lost power but after getting it back I could tell a difference. Much more zoom zoom. They didn't keep it but 2 days total. This is the first time I have really heard anything on the RX8 having troubles. They said some are also putting too much oil into the start up the motor and this is fixed during recall. Let me know if any of you have had the same thing.

That's right, it is 100,000 miles. From the letter I got it seems like they are getting to problem before it happens. I really liked how well the dealership took care of it. The only other time I had to take my 8 in was when it got flooded, didn't let it get warm before killing engine (my bad 
). Won't do that again. They had to change all spark plugs then. Anyway, like the service department at Mazda better than other dealerships. Looking forward to more fun driving.

Oh, I got my oil changed like a week and a half ago, and I get my oil changed at the closest Mazda dealership because the dealership I bought my car at is really far away. I accidentally went to the dealership really far away and then I found out I was at the wrong one. Before I left the man taking care of me told me to ask the other dealership about a recall on my car. When I got there, I forgot about it, and I just left my car there for them to change the oil and when I got back, I went to go pay and the lady said she took care of a recall.

quick question...Instead of debadging the stock bumper, why not pop the emblem off and paint it with OEM white to match the rest of the car? I personally, think that would look great!!
