Separated at birth?

not exactly on topic, but why the fsck would you spend a gajillion dollars modifying a G35 with the most expensive possible components, and choose a front bumper that looks like it came off a '98 Civic?

i absolutely love them, i think they are great. the reason i'm hatin on them is because there is no reason for them to be that expensive other than to make them something more exclusive and special than they are.

this would be like me producing a mid range point and shoot digi cam with a built in MP3 player. and then charging $2,000 for it.

mp3 players arent special, they are cheap and integrated into everything imaginable already. but just because i am currently producing the only one thats combo'd with a digi cam that you can really buy, i'm gonna price it like its diamonds. its ridiculus, but its the free market. until someone comes along and does it for 1/4 the price, this is what we have

U are an idiot my friend if you think that civic looks anything close to the G35...ur missing the logical part of your brain, I bet you dont even know what TOP SECRET is......but then again your one of those people who says Volks = Rotas (nothing against Rotas or replicas...) they are made for people who cant$$$ and its all good.

I agree on all these things mentioned...

1. You get what u pay for...rare, time spent on development and perfection, quality, nice style (i like better than o9's)

2. You only get parts like these on a car u bought to keep...(like RX8 which only ran 4 years...at least this model) mines paid so i know im keeping mine..

3. Rotary Rasps are super nice and I will sign myself a million times to his retirement bullshit comeback list...his lights are nice...(before sold)

4. This just comes to show that their are a couple of options for our tailights....
-shinka
-black out
-light tint
-red out
-Rotary rasp style (pay him $800-1k and i bet hell do it...half of the clearcorners.com)
-Clearcorners.com tailights
- ur own custom crap which probably wont look good....

5. I read all these pages

6. I am currently working on two custom projects not yet seen on an RX8....One for the trunk that I will do for local SOCAL pppl if they come around to a meet or something....(really good custom idea and rotary inspired) easy to recreate. I am really close with my bodyshop/upholstery/paintshop person so pretty much anything i can work with him on...

- my other idea has to do with the HEADLIGHTS and will be a professional job already in process, not like the LED strip DIY people do on here....ONLY JAYAR, and DOZER, and RENESIS, and JOEY know what im talking about....I will have these two custom projects done within 1 month, and the trunk project ....this week.. The tailights are def. on my list, and will most likely pay ROTARY RASP like $800+ to do mine, the reason behind that is because its a reasonable price for him to consider and the only reason i would rather buy Rotary rasps over the 09's and making them fit or clearcorners is because...YOu get the 09 LED round look...but you also get the two side LEDS on the corner of the tailights which the 09 dont have!! And I really love the Two Red Side LEDS on the tailamps....Everyone till this day thinks my Tailamps are aftermarket... BUt now its even more easily for someone to buy a used 8 for like 10-20k and have the same crap we all do....so Winning Blue (color is already rare and I love that i bought it when i had a chance), so the only way to stand out now is to do custom work, which i am working on....I have about 6 custom idea projects which should be completed by SEVENSTOCK and those who come to SEVENSTOCK will get to see them and be amazed....the two mentioned earlier will be completed within a month and be available for viewing at the SOCAL BEACH CRUISE MEETS....

CUSTOM IDEA MODS IN THE FUTURE
- Trunk interior custom mod for stereo system not currently done yet or yet thought of
- Other trunk mod maybe done for show, but not created for distribution at a reasonable price
-headlight professional customization, done but not on an 8 (no cheap LED strips, also which will become available for a reasonable price or group buy
-I have a feeling im gonna need more chairs for my car when SEVENSTOCK comes around....yes sir, you'll see...

Looks pretty cool. I would put the LED ring behind the projector bezel so it's not exposed, looks pretty ugly when the lights are off. I'm also not crazy about the generic textured clear plastic that clearcorners uses to cover up everything.

Hmmm , i love LED tail lights and stuff but imo with that price tag it is just not worth it. Can buy a good coil over set up with that....

its probably why it took them so long to release our headlight. The g and z parts came out like wildfire. Our club just don't seem to appreciate there work/won't pay up for these
i've already seen a few of these floating around g35driver.com

the reason why its priced so high has already been discussed in this thread. its an outrageous price but you're paying for uniqueness. honestly, if i had the money, and lots of it, i would be all about this but i dont. for show cars that are sponsored, price is not an issue and their products were made for that purpose. looks nice, very nice

those are from an eclipse, this is an rx8, way different

and i hate that they illuminated the middle piece, i wanted a 99 gsx back in the day, always hated that middle portion, like the replacement that matches the body like the 3000gt better

Yeah my 1st car was a '84 Porsche 944 and it had the same awkward middle section that just never seemed to mesh well with everything else on the back-end, but all in all I think this is an impressive job on the Eclipse, I know you would rock it if you had it, but not on the 8 obviously

^^^They're actually white. Photo didn't capture the true color. They illuminate amber when turn signal is initiated.
