The yellow is so good. If only they had the two-tone leather, I would have got it instead.

Apperance package?

I was wondering if this is apperance package, plus spoiler, plus exhaust package only?

Is this showing what they call the mud flaps?

And please do a Titanium one

Hello roachman,

What you see in the picture is the appearance package, which includes the front air dam, side skirts and rear aero flares. The mudflaps have different design elements to them.

In addition, you have the rear spoiler, exhaust accents, strakes, rear foglight and gas cap. BTW, this is the eurospec car as the turnsignals are white and not yellow.

Hey Wave, I was going to say that the gray and silver would probably be the most difficult to duplicate.

Your first attempt in that color fell inbetween the Gray and Silver. A little darker than silver but a tad light for Gray.

Your second attempt was interesting, that color seems to be a cross between pearl white and silver (lighter the the actual silver).

I for one appreciate your efforts and not knocking you in the least. These are the best wallpapers I have seen thus far, thanks again.

L&L,

Mystical powers will only take you so far but I think money will get you any material object you need. I already have the full "meal deal" package minus the Nav. In addition I have been looking over some new rims and those things are priced btw $2500-$3500 for a set!!! I haven't a clue how much customized upholstery would cost here in the expensive west coast, so I dismissed that idea fairly quickly. I ruled out blue for the same reasons and the red seemed like the de-facto color everybody would pick. I then settled for Gray with the Tan interior. But after reading this forum it seems that Gray is a hot seller, oh well. I think my magical powers are defective, I wonder if they are still under warranty.

EDIT: West Coast of California and not Australia!!

Elara will flip over that one, spot on Wave.

I like how you went back and also matched the colored reflection of the RX-8 letters.

Hi bro Wave: can you please make a silver again this time getting rid of the reflections? I think the color is pretty close but the reflections are too much.

That might be kind of tough and time consuming. Let me see if I can find an easy way to do it.

It looks like gas cap that was on the one of the rx8 prototypes at the Detroit Auto Show; thanks, but no thanks. It was very cheap looking.

Cool

I just wanted to let you all know that I updated all the colors to try and make them as close as I can. Also if there are some of you who would like me to post certain colors without the custom gas gap just let me know.

Thanks, I don't want to bother you ... but I have a thing for the batmobile ...and I wouldn't (yes I would) want you to add some rear wings and a turbo jet burner to the back - because I know how much time that would take to do in Photoshop ... changing the color of a gas cap is one thing - adding unreferenced (an un-official) body parts is another matter ...
