while not officially riced, the general concensus around here is that decals like that are loud, unnecessary and ugly. But it's your car. I just don't know why you'd want to take a design as beautiful as the RX8, and with paint as gorgeous as Velocity Red, and cover it with a tribal sticker?

Its not overdone so looks alright, maybe get clear corners too, the amber corner is kind of clashing.

First of all, welcome to the RX-8 family and to the forum!

In regard to your question, I don't necessarily think it's overdone either. Looks like it's your only modification to the car's appearance. If you had neon lights underneath or some retarded bodykit that just didn't look right, I might be less appreciative of your efforts. As is, though, I think it's fine. Have fun with your 8!

Doh, I just passed the century mark--101 posts!

Not bad. Yesterday, I saw a green with 2 stripes up the hood.

Not my cup of tea, but I've seen a lot worse.

reminds me of Need for Speed Underground

don't worry, someone already flamed you because they saw your car on Car-Domains

To Setax...

u know.... its YOUR car not any others... so as long as u like it... its ALL good... who cares wut others think right? some stupid no brian jerks in here all they can do is complain and talk sh#$ about other people's ride... like their's are any better.... its ALL about self satisfaction...

but IMO i won't go with that... just cuz i'm not into decals, even if i would... i personally would like graphics not as "curvy" if that makes any sense... ex: Vivid Racing's RX-8!!

Doesn't look bad at all IMO. so long as it isn't like this titanium grey RX8 i saw in Rock Hill, SC. It had HOT PINK vinyl decals on the side. HOT PINK. i wonder if he is a member of this forum. the tags were from North Carolina though. i had a great laugh about it. Anyway, nice car man.

Does it look orange to anyone else. I see a little red in the rear of the car. But the front and middle looks a little orange.

I think it looks good. Not too much and not so little that you can't see it.

Not bad, but if you add neon and a big ugly wing in the back you will be on the fast track to Riceville!

The decal by itself though looks pretty sharp though. Nice.

It's not too bad but I prefer it on girls' lower backs. Doesn't look as sexy on the 8.

Not my cup of tea, but it does not look too bad.
You need to get clear side markers though.
