Mine was on for almost a year - no problems. brothervoodoo's has been on longer.

Most of mine stays stuck on pretty well, but the left end of the top bar is coming undone just a little bit. Any suggestions? I think I might just put a little bit of the double sided adhesive from my strakes under the end of it so it sticks again.

If that doesn't work I think the next best thing to do is pull that whole loose strip off and replace it with new trim. That is what I would do anyway.

Chrome Lining...

Mazda bob....You should cut some of those strips to fit on the plastic slits on near your fog lights....just a suggestion it will make your front look custom and it will match the center piece nicely...

nice job on the center piece very creative and very cheap

looks cool. not my flavor, but cool none the less. IMO it would've looked better on the oil cooler holes only...
2 cents.

I know I'm totally digging up this old AWESOME thread, but I just wanted to post my pic of doing this very economical mod! Mainly since it seems no one with a VR did this.

So here it is: http://i765.photobucket.com/albums/x.../RX8/003-1.jpg

Oh and for anyone looking to do this now, the price apparently went up to $14.95 at pepboys! LOL
