Talking RX8-Raider's Sinful Sunlight Silver

I have had this awesome car since August of last year and still only have a little over 3,000 miles on it (reminder... Drive this car MORE. ARE YOU NUTS???:p ) Of course I work close to home so that is my excuse at least. Anyhow, I have waited to post any photos because I had the 16" rims and while they actually looked pretty good on the sunlight silver too many people here just didnt like the way they looked so I figured "Why Bother?". A couple of weeks ago I purchased some new rims (19" Motegi DPK) and so I figure maybe it would be worth posting a few photos. Hope you all like as much as I do!

ps. A major thanks to Mike B, Mr. and Mrs. Showoff, mdw33333, and SDFLY for their imput when I was looking for my rims. I got a great deal on these. I know some people are btching about originality but hey look at the bright side we just about got all the colors covered!

Oh yeah, Im not done by any means on additions to the car. Im thinking of adding side aero flares, clear corners, tint, strakes and maybe a front air dam. I guess its good to have so many options to add on to the car but its a bad thing too$$$$$$ !

hey Raider, I still love those rims! Have not seen another rim (at any price) I'd rather have on that car. Now, get out there and get yourself some springs!

Nice! :D I gotta say that I love silver. I think it has replaced Ti grey as my favorite...

BTW... who cares if 3 or 4 other forum members have the same rims. You probably don't see any other 8's in your town with them... AND... they look sharp!

I like those a lot, simple and clean looking.

(btw, can a dealer install clear corners? I know I prob can't do it myself.)
