Just washed Roxie...

These are very amatuer (sp?) photos..
I was bored so i washed her and took pics.
Tell me what you think..
Tips to take better pics would be great.
And i know. I need clear corners. No need to remind me. lol.
The first one is my favorite.

Cute vinyls. I would be happy if my girlfriend drove an RX-8... her parents are buying her one for graduation from college and I've been trying to talk her into an 8 but its not working. She says she says she wants a new VW GLI.

Anyway, I think this car definitely needs clear corners.

I award your car my complete disdain. (Your car) screams a level of attention-seeking unfathomable to even myself. I am aware of your right to adjust your assets accordingly, but know that in doing so, the alteration of the once pristine image of the RX-8 that I once possessed has been irrevocably reversed. You have managed to put forth something that shames the very essence of individuality.

TL;DR version: not my thing

Not my thing, but not nearly as critical as the some of the self rightous asses on here. I do think if you are going w/ this type of over-the-top graphics you really need to make the car more aggressive. Body kit, drop it, no stock rims, and the previously mentioned clear corners.

Don't hold back...what do you really think?


Not my thing, but luckily I don't have to drive it. I stick to the "keep it simple" motto myself.

Either way, I hope you enjoy the car!

not someting i would do or my style. but i cant wait to see what else you do to the car. wtih a drop and some nicewheels, should make the car even better looking for the style you are going for. but i must say, it takes alot of guts to drive a car with that type of style. something i can never do, so admire you and your husband for having the ***** to do so

I usually dislike any graphics on a car, but for some reason this works. Something about white 8's make them a good base for "flair". Don't let the haters get you down.

Yup. 100% true. These graphics work, especially with your pink parking lights . My only complaint is that you let the shop put a giant advertisement all over your rear windshield and bumper. URL's, phone numbers, and company names belong on sides of Ford Transits, not the back of RX-8's

Ignore rotard. He's a low level troll looking to say things and get a reaction.


Why don't you have clear corners yet? Those amber ones need to go.

People say what they think...its whatever..
To each their own.
...And the company name on the back is my boyfriends so I am helping him out. a bunch of people called him from seeing my car driving around. so i guess it's working. That is coming off though and I'm putting my car team logo on the back I think.

...And I haven't had a chance to get the clear corners yet...I'm working on paying some bills off right now. Its been slow at work so tips aren't that great so I'm only buying the necessities currently. They will be on there soon though i can promise you that. Maybe pink dyed ones. I haven't decided.
