here are a few pics of my 8 with the grapics i put on the b-pillars and the custom billet front grille i made. let me know what you guys think. shes is dirty but what can you expect after days and days of rain. i will apply a coat of zaino as soon as the weather let me.

kurtslash 01-11-2006 05:06 PM

sorry. hope you guys like it. thanks for any comments.

i'd fix the shiny bits up front, get springs, and lower the rear wing....also - Vender/Parts, etc, type stickers are only cool if you've secured sponsorship.

:D

looks nice, but damn, you have more rock chips than i do! unless your car just needs washing :p:

kurtslash 01-11-2006 05:20 PM

there are a lot of freeways and roads under construction so i can avoid being hit by little rocks. everytime i hear a rock hitting my front end i keep swearin until i forget my baby is being punished by little rocks

that mazdaspeed sticker on the side needs to go, and man that things got some braces on it!

NgoRX8 01-11-2006 05:23 PM

Don't like the B-pillar. The billet looks really uneven. Other than those, looks alright.

khtm 01-11-2006 05:28 PM

I hate the graphics...they scream "Look at me I'm 16, this is my first car and I'm a gangsta".

But I like everything else.

AdamK 01-11-2006 05:34 PM

The grill work up front looks cheesy because it's all uneven. Can it be straightened? Other than that, looks OK!

TxRx8 01-11-2006 05:36 PM

Get rid of the b-pillar stickers buddy. I like the look in general, but those stickers HAVE TO GO. :)

zaglo6204 01-11-2006 05:45 PM

im not gonna repeat all that stuff about the stickers & crooked grille inserts (guess i sorta just did)

anyway, i noticed that the front gap between the hood/headlights/fenders & the front end/nose is rather uneven....did you get it fitted by a "professional"??? it looks like its sagging...

BigOLundh 01-11-2006 06:08 PM

if it were me i would ditch the MS b-pillar logo, and also the grill.
everything else looks great.

At least use the official Mazdaspeed logo. I'm sure they'd send you some decals if you asked...

buzzardsluck 01-11-2006 06:21 PM

hood uneven, stickers, front shiny grills look terrible IMO. I think the 8 should remain with a "chrome free look"(this includes strakes) since the car doesnt come with any chrome stuff on it, MAYBE if you had chrome tires but I dont like those either. Sorry to sound so harsh on your car but you did ask and don't worry many people don't agree with me so do the opposite of me and you should do ok lol.

Is that the mazdaspeed rearend? .

XDEEDUBBX 01-11-2006 06:23 PM

rob the jewelry store tell em make me a grill! Smile for me....

kw1k 01-11-2006 06:42 PM

look's great man !

allmotorRX8 01-11-2006 07:30 PM

eh, what everyone else said
aint feeling the stickers or the grille
ms front seems uneven, "sagging" as zaglo said

my10ae 01-11-2006 08:09 PM

The Mazdaspeed B-pillar stickers is dah GEY!:thumbsdow Remove those and the Mazdasped up front and you got a sweet car...

Moostafa29 01-11-2006 08:13 PM

Chrome grills belong on Escalades and 300C, not sport cars. Btw, noticed you are from Live-no-more, come out to some of the Bay Area meets.

tiggerlee 01-11-2006 08:22 PM

^I'm with Moostafa! Lose the grill, oh and the MS stickers. That'll help bunches.

Kurt Bob 01-11-2006 08:41 PM

The overall look is cheesy/ricey. The RX-8 deserves better!

UFGator12 01-11-2006 09:24 PM

Ya'll are harsh man. Lay off a little. Honestly, the man is trusting you with his comments and the stabs just keep comin'. I think that the b-pillar and logo on the front would be better if they were the mazdaspeed logo instead of some random writing. Everything else looks awesome! Keep up the good work! Don't let these guys tear you up!

BigOLundh 01-11-2006 09:42 PM

Ok... this will sound rude, but i apologize.

Is that a replica MS front bumper? The fitment is just off, and doesnt look like the actual one. Ok, so now my second point... why put a MS sticker on a replica bumper?

Like i said before... overall i think your car looks nice. keep up the good work.

Rotor Kreuzer 01-11-2006 10:08 PM

Looks good, the MS kit has a clean look to it that complements all the colours. But I have to agree with the rest regarding your MS decals. Smaller versions of the actual Mazdaspeed logo would look great on the b-pillars and your front end.

Try to have a shop fix the fitment of the front bumper if you can. That gap between it and the hood just makes it look like the hood isn't shut properly. But overall, I like what you've done so far. Any plans for an aftermarket exhaust?
