any suggestions guys

BoomerBurt 10-23-2007 07:49 PM

Looking good! Especially the strakes. (I don't think the 8 looks finished without the strakes on the fender vents.)

I would do the calipers in red. (But what do I know, my whole 8 is red.)

i didnt know if i should do red or black cuz im smoking lights and i have smoked tailights

Chris 10-23-2007 08:37 PM

def go with black... always a good color for them

MissyK 10-23-2007 08:49 PM

lol i was expecting something from the movie transformers... lol

nice big dish on the rear..........

VS8 10-23-2007 08:51 PM

u think i should paint rx8 in white

MissyK 10-23-2007 08:54 PM

No, I think you should respray it a unique colour - a colour that you wont expect on an RX8. There are other whites.. if you are going to spend the money respraying do something completely different. If white is what you want tho, perhaps put a pearl through the white. But yea.. just my opinion on respraying, go for something totally different if you willing to spend that money!

I have been bashed for this previously...the strakes, if you are going to have them, need to be level with the ground, not pointing at the front wheels.

Apart from that, I dont mind the wheels, but you need to lower it.

VS8 10-23-2007 08:57 PM

i mean to say paint it black and paint rx8 on the black in white

thebiggdaddy 10-23-2007 10:03 PM

No front air dam. Go with a body kit.

VS8 10-23-2007 10:04 PM

i dont have enuff money for that unless you can find a prepainted one

He's a decepticon!:lol2:

Option 1
If you are going with the MS front end make sure you have enough for some sides (maybe the oem sides)

Option 2
Go with the apperance package, ditch the factory spoiler and get a lip spoiler like the one I have on my car.

I would paint the calipers either black or silver(silver preferably), subtle but effective.

Option 3
I had S-techs with Tokico D-spec shocks and cables for the rear that I'm selling. I got coilovers on my car now, so if you're interested let me know.

Congrats on the car, looking good and keep us posted on the progress. :icon_tup:

llzjayarzll 10-24-2007 11:55 AM

your stakes are not leveled. (lol?)

oh and btw make sure u get

autobahn front
vertex sides
kenstyle rear

and live out my dream lol

zerobio 10-24-2007 02:19 PM

I'd also suggest painting calipers black or silver but not red on a silver 8.

chetrickerman 11-10-2007 07:24 PM
