After seeing so many riced RX8s lately. Seeing this clean stock one is a breath of fresh air! With it so clean, it looks really fast! IMO.

Very nice... welcome to the "dark" side :D

BTW- love the oil cooler grills- you make those or buy them as a kit?

Looks great!

I did the mesh thing over the oil coolers too. I'm wondering if you plan to ever paint it black? I have a Tit color car, and even it looked better with them painted imo.

I ended up taking them off after I bought the foglights, but I still like the way it looks with it on there.

Take care.

They are the racing beat screens. I need to get fogs to cover the open area and I was also thinking of painting them black. I thought about that as soon as I finished putting the bumper back on... I'll probably end up doing it when I paint my calipers this weekend.

I went to racing beats web page and couldn't find those screens. Would love to buy some instead of the homemade chickenwire look.

I know, I need some... I've only had it for 3 weeks now so give me time. On a brighter note, I got my clear corners yesterday so its already looking better.

Add a set of fender strakes to finish off the side on view and give the car a little bit more class (bling?)

haha, resurrecting an old thread...

Noob, did you ever end up painting those screens?

I'm thinking of installing the RB screens on my black RX-8 and wondering what they would look like painted.
