grille insert is from Grille tech (very very inexpensive)

thanks


There arent very many things that arent expensive anymore! Thanks!

Do you have Race or Diamond style? Install that yourself? How did it go? Could you take an up close of the grill?

love the vertical doors. funny how some people call them lambo doors.
if we could afford the doors on a lambo we would probably own a lambo..
by the way are they bolt on or welds????

Looks hawt!

My g/f took one look at the pics and now she wants one. She was rear-ended here in Orlando last week. Insurance is totalling the car so now we're car shopping again.

I also want to commend you on your ability to always keep your car so damn clean.

Over the top and totally unnecessary, but it does look damn good and exotic. I would love to do this to my car, but I already have so many scares with people getting in an out of my car. I have had my doors closed the wrong way, people getting in and out are always hitting the seat bolsters (ive seen many Rx-8's with torn seats), and I know that mod would make me extra **** about people entering and exiting my car. Am I right or wrong with the assumption that the vertical door kit makes it difficult to get in and out of the car?

I'm lovin' the way the car turned out.

There will always be people who don't like Lambo doors on anything...including a Lambo....but I think they are way too cool for all those fools.

Clean clean clean! You are definitely my next nomination for the June..July...or whatever RX8 of the month.

Great job.

thanks folks...

no problem getting in and out for me....you can actually get in the car without lifting up the doors...thats whats nice about this kit...
the door opens out normal to the first stop...which is enough room to get in...

i dont have a lot of riders in my car btw....the ones that do ride with will get use to them....
