you probably shouldnt base your decision on other peoples' opinions. if you like the look, let the debadging begin.

First let me just say, everytime a Veilside kit is put on an 8, baby jesus sheds a tear...

As for what deedubb said, I agree that rims/suspension/performance should come before looks, but things are not always what they seem. I, for instance, have a vented hood and Tsunami front end, NOT because my first priority was looks, but because some douche ran into me and I HAD TO replace the front end and hood (and why keep it stock?)
Would I have rather put the money into stuts/sways - Exhaust/intake - Pullies and Flywheel - HELL YES. Peoples priorities change, so I wouldnt make much of a stink about him not having rims yet. Who knows, maybe his hand was forced like mine. Im sure he wants to see rims on his car more than you do :)
As for the debaging... your car is already black, how much more stealth do you really need to be? I think leaving the flying M as someone else said would look fine, but debaging the car completely, especially with such a drastic body kit, its seems as though your ashamed to be driving an RX8. If youre gunna debage ANYTHING, it should be those horrendous Veilside logos all over your car.

Why just de-badge? You should re-badge! A 350Z badge would add, like, 75WHP!

Seriously though, if you have to do something, this sounds best.

I removed the rx8, painted the "flying Ms" black on front and rear and the word mazda body color (titanium gray)
After some body work was scheduled to repair/repaint my trunk, i forked up the $75 to have them fill the holes and get rid of all the rear badging, but thats just me .. i like the way cars look with no badges, all nice n clean clean

It would look good if you smoked the taillights and the headlights and got a really aggressive carbon fiber spolier and hood. Then some nice rims. And finally if you have enough money left over, some performance mods to back up the aggressive look.

staticlag 08-23-2006 11:57 AM

Oh, and fer gosh sakes, clear corners!

RENESIS_NEENJA 08-23-2006 12:39 PM

yea deedubb remembers my car back when it had a kit and no rims. those were the days. rims are a necessity.

yeah thanks for the input everyone i am a person motivated by great deals and this was a steal for the kit. But i like the relocation idea and i will give it a shot. As far as clears go there on the way and rims i would love to get but my pockets just arent that deep. I am 21 and am in school so its kind of whatever i can get at a good price goes on next. As for mR. is that a type R decal., no... no its not. Its a veilside racing decal of very high quality which i enjoy very much thank you.... Any more questions from morons who cant read? Beers

StewyRX8 08-24-2006 09:40 AM

Don't forget an APC sticker. That would be so much better than a type R decal.

I meant no disrespect asshat. You have to admit, it does look kinda like one...my bad.:mdrmed::cwm27: I'm actually not gonna knock your kit either, I like the Veilside, done right it can be pretty sexy.

artx8 08-24-2006 12:52 PM

i retract my previous moronic accusation. I apologize,

RENESIS_NEENJA 08-24-2006 01:38 PM

As do I, :angel::mdrmed:
