Pics of my "new" 8

I've had it about 3 weeks. Just long enough to buy some wheels.

Here are some pics. =)

I was thinking that I might.

Right now I'm just working on getting a few things straightened out. I'm going to get the trans. flushed, new plugs, wires, decarb, all that good stuff out of the way before I start throwing around more money on things like exhaust, eyelids, corners, coilovers and things. I love it so far. And thanks for the compliments.

They're not too expensive. I got mine for about $80. It doesn't do anything, but it makes your car look sexier imo. Not my money, so you do whatever, but it's always good to improve the performance first.

The wheels are 5Zigen. The model is SC3000.

I'm not sure about the tint. It came on the car when I bought it three weeks ago. It seems identical to the tint I had on my last car. It was Llumar 15%. It's perfect. Not too dark, and not too light.

I've honestly thought about eliminating the rotary accents. If the car had strakes, I would have taken those off already. I'm not a huge fan of strakes. I just wonder from time to time what the car would look like without the accents.


As far as the clear corners go... I may look into that. I have seen pics of the stock corner lights tinted. I was not terribly impressed. I could still see a little bit of amber. Has anyone tinted the clear corners?
