Cool MazdaSpeed RX-8

I've heard a lot of people mentioning Mazda making a MazdaSpeed RX-8. Now, I've seen pictures of the Japanese MS RX-8 but that will probably change quite extensively before coming to the states. So, I did a pic of what it might look like if produced for the USDM. This is just an interpretation but I had some guidlines.

First, I looked at the MazdaSpeed Protege and MP3 to get some ideas. Then I used traditional styling from the RX series. I personally like the was it looks and, if they make one like it, I'll definately get it! :D

Thanks,

Adam (aka. Nalrac)

Arrow Final version

I have done the final body mods for the MazdaSpeed RX-8. Here is the Final version.

I like it. What do you think.

Wink Final (Again)

Thanks so much for the positive feedback. Being the perfectionist I am, I did one more with minor modifications on the front bumper and small reflections. I am 99% happy with this one and the 1% isn't worth stressing over.

So, like I "said" before, this one is the final version. Except this time, I mean it.

By the way, if anyone has a request let me know and I will work on it.

Adam

P.S. - check out its convertible version near the END of the thread posted: Convertible RX-8 #1

Thumbs up Nice body kit

:D

Would it be possible to see the same car in the blue color like the MP3 Blue.

By the way how do you do those modifications.

Thanks for the compliments everyone. I do all of these in Photoshop.

I will try to do one in a blue. MazdaSpeed actually has an orange color just like that so that's why I used it. I just didn't want that yellow anymore :D

Thanks,

Adam

Brand new pics

Hey everyone,

I have been working on these most of the day and I am very shocked with the results. Based on all of the opinions of you guys, I have done the final high-quality version of my final body kit on a new, better picture.

I have a blue one and a yellow. I will post both: the yellow one here and the blue one in the next message. These are dumbed down, so if you want the 1024 x 768 version just email me.

Let me know what you think,

Adam Carlan

The blue one's my fav (although I still prefer the clean lines of the original car!)
Good work again.

Thumbs up

Nice work!!!! I have saved every pic that has been posted to this forum, but I still have yet to see a silver RX-8. I know if anyone has the capability to do this it would be Nalrac.


Great body kit!!:D :D

Silver/Blue

Hey there,

Per request of Maurice I have done a Silver. It's actually a Silver/Blue but it's gorgeous. It's kind of a Silver blue pearl. Check it out.

By-the-way, if anyone wants to distribute these pics to anyplace or anyone, just please let me know. I do these for free but I like to know where they are going. Thanx.

Adam

Black

Black takes a little more time to do (and make it look good). This picture has some pixel imperfections in it that makes it rather difficult. I will do one but give me a few days....I'll do it this weekend.
