Got my new hood this week, and got some nice pictures taken this weekend. Now I am only waiting on my new wheels to come in soon. Work XD-9's in gunmetal. The lighting isn't quite perfect in some, but I still think they came out good. Enjoy.

 

Thumbs up for another VR red! Nice ride!

 

Looks great! can't wait to see it in person!

 

nice! but would look much better without strakes.

 

Nice! I'm digging the photography and the strakes.

 

I've been debating that too, I think when the new wheels come I might lose them. Thanks for the good feedback guys!

 

You bringing it to autobahn on saturday?

 

Inventory week at work, I had it planned off and everything, then they screwed me.

 

That sucks

 

wow thats a great pic

 

Looks good . But i think you should lose the front and rear emblems , it looks too busy .

 

Are you talking about the accents? Or the actual Mazda emblems?

 

Looks awesome d00d! Can't wait to see it in person!!!

Tell work to suck it, you should come out n play on Saturday

 

Yea the Mazda emblems. I think it'll look better without them . And whats accents ?

 

Very nice. Got to love that Chicago smog. Not a star in the sky.

 

Well it was pretty damn humid that night, that was actually the more clear part of the sky, the oppositte direction you could hardly see anything.

 

I love the JGTCA pic locations! They do the best!!! How was the meet? Were you the only 8? I think we should all meet up at one of their Sat meets and cruise down to our Portillos meet. Game?

 

Good photography and the hood looks killer against VR especially in this lighting!

 

Looks great!

 

They alternate spots every week, I've been able to go to the last 2, both times I was the only rotary, the first one was in Elgin, and there were a ton of cars, we got some pretty good pics of that one. This one there was maybe 5 or 6 cars and we lost 3 of them on the way up to Chicago, so he had more time to take pics of just my car. But yeah, I would definitely be down for that, I've been so bogged down with working every weekend in the spring I'm going crazy now.

 

great looking car, post more pics when you can, you're a good photographer

 

I'm game

 

lol , i always thought the rx8 looked so cute rofl. With its huge smiley face and mazda emblem nose haha . Nice pics man , what camera are you using? I need a better camera i think.

 

I personally did not take the pictures, a guy in our local car club who is great with cameras takes pictures at each meet. He has all top of the line gear though, those pics also had additional lighting, and the lense he used was a $500 lense.

 

Are your fogs tinted or something? Looks great.
