Opinions....
 

Just got my RX-8. 1st one's a pic of it at the dealership. 2nd is a semi detailed start (Photoshop) of what I MIGHT, considering opinions...do for a paint job. 3rd is a more progressed version, but I don't think it needs to be completed for people to get an idea of what I'm going for. Yey or Ney? Cool or Crap? Tell me what you think of each so it'll give me more or less incentive to do what may or may not be good looking for my car.

EDIT: DISREGARD THE SECOND PHOTO, MIS-SAVE.

Ehh , not going to lie, but the best looking pic is the first one...

Welcome to 8club and congrats on the new car :) I agree with paimon.soror on the pics.

dude. do NOT put all that red crap all over that beautiful car! go black. everything black. looks sick that way.

Yeah, I've been feeling that the more and more I look at it, the better it looks just like it is. I think the farthest I'll ever get in terms of cosmetics will be new rims. But thanks for the input guys!

nothin wrong with some sick wheels man. just dont wanna look ricy with all that red outlining. def tint your windows and get some clear corners from rotaryfx.com

That picture made me lol. And yeah, I'm def getting the windows tinted when I can.

Just leave it sock... please.

keep it stock!!

Ewwwww to the photoshop pics.......That is all.

Honestly, I say instead of spending the money to do some whacky paint job, get a decent set of wheels (Rota P45r for the price conscious), clear out your corners, replace the wing with a MS Wing, and get a nice splitter for the front and you will be well on your way to a sexier ride.

x a million, nothing makes a car look cheap like some ghetto pinch molding, I don't know what's worse, that or the fake fender vents/hood scoops/whatever that I see ALL the time, ugh, don't people know that stuff looks like ass and does nothing to help whatever $100 car/truck they're putting it on?

I hope OP was just joking.

The second and third pics look terrible. But do whatever YOU like.

Wtf that looks soo ugly. Keep it all black. I dont get how youre even considering doing that. Thats awful .do yourself a favour and keep it black.. Dont ruin a perfectly good rx8. Please

PS Im not a mean person by any means. But ricing out a nice car is a pet peeve of mine lol. Sorry

i agree with Roidz...do what ya like. just not that haha

I already said that I'm not changing it didn't I? Just leave it be and don't bash me for something I already said I'm not doing >.> Sheesh.

To each, their own...cough, cough...lol

i'd like to watch a show of pimp my ride with you as the creative designer.

comical.

this is what happens when our cars have lost so much value...now anyone can get one :(

Geezus guys cut him some slack. Yeah it might not look the best but he listened to your opinions and said he wasn't going to do it. Just leave it at that.

if someone asked me for some advice whether he should murder and eat a human baby. but didnt because i said it was a bad idea. i would still see him as threat to babies all over the world.

meh...

Perfect.

I understand that this design choice youve made makes you satisfied and you feel creative. Another thing you might want to consider is what kind of statement you make about yourself by your vehicle. If youre looking for solid opinions on design choices, take a design course at your local community college...hopefully they offer one.

what I can tell you is this. generally, a design that is pleasing for the human eye contains three colors. two main tones that compliment each other, and a third that acts as a minimal accent. If you want great ideas on color and design choices, go to zappos.com and look at high end women's stilletos, color and material combinations will be the most up to date.

Whoa, why is it suddenly my car??

cuz I cant read lol, edited

OP, no offense. It's just ribbing.

leave it the way it is, drop it, and paint the calipers black

Here's an idea...

Lurk the media/photography forums for a lil' bit...heck, go check out a couple of photoshoot threads with some of the more modified 8's...personally, i think getting to know what you can do to the car might give you some ideas as to where you really wanna go...

personally...after watching so many people go in so many directions with their car i've become thankful that i took my time in making the decisions i've made so far.

If i were you...i'd start off with the basics like lowering, getting rims n' maybe some appearance mods before going all out with paint n' "attention getters". a stock car with over-the-top exterior mods look like shat n' presents a very "immature" state of mind.

my $.02

btw, please don't murder out(all black) your car...shit's old

**see picture**

Omg, the third pic is beautiful. Really follows the flow of the car nicely. Only thing I would do is add a bigger spoiler... catch some down force.
