Beautiful 8. I always liked white on an 8. Not really feeling the blue park lights though.

I totally agree with you.

I hated strakes until I saw black strakes on a white rx8. I just installed some on my car last night.

I'm thinking of LED tail light brake light bulbs. Which ones did you choose? And how do they compare to filament? I'm looking at V-LED 48 SMT ones. Thanks!

i bought the kit off of RX8strakes.com. its like 70 bucks for the kit and comes with everything you need. two red, amber, and white leds, two load resistors and wire tapes. http://www.rx8strakes.com/index.asp?...ROD&ProdID=116

fitment is perect.

i've used leds from vleds before, blue running lights, and have used their products on friend's vechicles before. i have had no problems with either company, and it comes down to personal choice.
