my new rx-8 custom work

Just bought last month. 6-speed. I would still have 30 day tags on it. All work done at Custom Wheels Boutique in Fredericksburg, VA R-1 Drift wheels 18", memphis sub and amp, Eibach pro kit, 20% tint all around, Seibon TS-II hood tomorrow, aerocatch hood pins with it, possible seibon AE style front lip. i'm 18 and just started turning this into a possible show car let me know what you think.

Not feeling the renesis thing on the side or the front plate. Looks good though.

I think your look would come together if you got an aftermarket body kit. It just doesn't look right with the stock body.

+3 on it would look better without the renesis decal.

And if I am not mistaken you have Goodyear Eagles in back, Cooper Zeon's in front?
If so the very next thing I would do (Personally, it would have been the first thing done, along with the new rims) was to put a new set of Falken 452's all around instead of a mish mash of different manufacturors.

The decal, black emblems, and spray tinted corners have to go.

New Hood

I tink i might change up the graphic. can't really afford the body kit but a CF front lip is in the works. I'm looking to get sponsored so i need people to see my car the graphic helps i always see people staring.
It is dropped with the Eibach pro kit and its VA law to have plates in the front. i would get a ticket ASAP with my car and the way i drive. and the corners are tinted with PPF not spray. i'm going all black or carbon not tryin to have bright orange lights on the side.

get a body kit, new rims, and some HID bulbs, Front plate can be mounted in the left bottom of the front bumper instead of center. Decal have to go and get a clear corner instead. If you really want to get in a show, your interior is a great place to mod as well, p.s.: Engine bay is also important. Mine is too far from a show as well. lol good luck dude
