looks pretty good.

Looks good man, blacked out cars like yours really make the stock wheels shine and look so much sexier

thank you guys for the compliments!!....

Lord ET, how do i get the link if the file is saved in my computer? or do i have to upload the pictures to an online server like imageshack or photobucket?

Third brake light needs some lovin

Sexy !! How dark are your tints ?

15% all around :evil_laug

i completely agree... i was so tired after installing the springs that i completely overlooked it.

maybe next weekend...

It looks better than not tinted definitely.

But i think your went a little to dark on the tail light. I personally like a lighter shade tint.

You have to upload it somewhere.

most people use photobucket, its pretty quick and easy.


also get some spacers for the stockers, 9k on here had them with his stocker for a while, really helps make it look flush when lowered.

looks good

was worried for a sec that it was going to be another "finally lowered my car" thread where you cut the springs lol, Good work :)

thats what i had in mind but dont know how big i need to get them... 15mm, 25mm?

I'll try photobucket next time... Thanks for the help!!!!

hahaha i saw that thread and was like "woooow let me not comment..." hahah cheap way = wrong way

looks good

I believe 9k was rocking 10mm spacers, not sure though would have to find his post

nope I lied, they were 25mm spacers,


heres a link to his thread with the pictures https://www.rx8club.com/series-i-wheels-tires-brakes-suspension-55/25mm-spacers-stock-wheels-245-40-18s-%3D-flush-195496/

Damn! That's almost an inch!..... Was it dropped when he installed the spacers? Cus i think 25mm on a 1" drop is a bit much... Not sure though.

yeah 9k was dropped, not sure on what though, its just an idea and the pics will give you a good reference of what dropped with those 25mm spacers looks like

9k had s-techs. and 25mm spacers, just shy of an inch.

Looks good :)

Looks good.

OP, Looks good I say get a nice overlay for the third tail.

I'm gonna have to look for some 10mm spacers...

looks very good!... i guess thats whats coming up next :fingersx:

yeah had to show of you spaced out stockers lol

I just wish I had coilovers then, I think the look could have been pulled of even better.

Looks good OP, the spacers would top it all off

Looks great! I'd like to recommend some LED bulbs to shine through the tint. Spacers would be a nice touch too.

dropped definitely more than an inch. but looks good! i had these springs sitting around in my room and i was reading a little bit about them and decided it was too low for me.

I will be getting the leds next week (payday)... And there is no way anyone should cut their springs monchie! What are you thinking? :Eyecrazy: Hahahahahah


9K THANKS FOR THE UPLOAD! :icon_tup:

No problem, and just ignore Monchie. He has already sunk on the failboat.

looks good.... and glad to see you did it the right way.

that looks pretty good!

Op looks good!

THA WAS EFFING FUNNY... HEY DO YOU STILL HAVE THE SPACER? ARE YOU USING THEM?

Thank jonathan, thats what my next purchase will be...
