Nice Car man! I raped a modded Tiburon at the track last Wednesday. He even swapped places with someone to line up with me. I don't know why but he was certain he was gonna take me. Maybe it's because all the other stock RX8's are in teh mid 15's and bigdaddy's running consistant 14.8's I must admit that I did run a Tiburon once that ran a 14.3 with bolt-ons.

So, if the exhaust is too loud...do you give yourself a ticket?

And, clears are illegal here in GA. I take it that's not true down in FL? But, nice pics and the more and more I see the aero kit the more I want it.

Really?, I did not know clears were illegal here, seeing as a lot of cars have them, and we only have emissions tests I do not see where you would worry.

Is rust much of an issue in Florida. Don't think I'd take mine to the beach.

IIRC, it is the non-amber bulbs that are the issue, not so much the clear lens.

Nice pics, I always thought your car was a WB, since your avatar is. Great choice in color.

I know it sucks. The dent seems as big as the car but its smaller than the tip of your finger. I want to get it out but its in a bad spot.

It went smooth one the install. The removal of the stock one sucked. I had to cut the tips of the mounting arms off the exhaust. We couldnt get it to come through the rubber mounts. We cut one side off and then just pulled the other side through. Other that that it was easy.

I got the mild steel. Stainless steel was pointless to me. The tips are the same but didnt care to much for an all stainless. I plan on getting a hi-flor cat so I will sell the exhaust down the road. I heard its too loud with the hi-flow cat on. Wanted to save the extra money for other mods. I love the sound. I had borla contemplated for a while but heard too much of how it is too loud. They Hymee is perfect. It's quiet while cruising around 4k but is sweet between 5k to redline. Start up is awesome. Deep and nice. I used to not downshift much but now its addicting.
