New owner saying hi

Just got my RX8! Im completely in love with it. Its a Velocity Red 05 Gt w/ nav , only 9k miles on it. Not the best pics, but theyll do for now. Plans: Lower it, clear side markers, and probably some Volk TE37's . Im in the Kansas City, MO area so if you see me around dont hesitate to wave! *edit* updated pics *edit*

Some driveway shots






First car with nav!! Dealer hadnt put the disc in yet.


Jetta I traded in for it

but before asking said ?'s, S E A R C H as someone has probably come up with a similar question/problem and a solution given

BIG example: flooding issues has about 92134723 threads created (which shouldnt affect you having an 05, just giving an example).
