I never did understand slapping a huge piece of carbon fiber out of the blue into one part of the car...like the hood. Looks so awkward and wierd IMO. I mean I could see if the whole car was carbon fiber, but just one part being carbon fiber out of the whole car looks strange.

You might as well get a vinyl sticker made up and stick it there, it'll definitely save you a few bucks!

I've got RE Ameniya sticker/badges on mine in the same location, looks good and only cost me $10AUD.

Oh my ... I was just suggesting (I admit it looks very good) and never said I was going to do it. Although I was really tempted to put any MazdaSpeed badge in when I just have the MS part I have now.... still can be called rice :p or I think a stock RX-8 with that B pillar is rice

hehe wait until I have the oil cooler, coilover and body kit then I think done with MazdaSpeed... then I will put the logo in to say I am MS equipped

Now who has a RE-Amimeya riced up car here :p Just j/k

EDIT: At least you don't have a yellow car with a large blue banner sticker at the top of the windscreen :D

Do you have the B-pillar trim as an option in the US, adds the nice piano black look, and a subtle logo (bugger for finger prints though!)

YA i also like the more subtle ms one which is ONLY in japan they can't get it for me here. I also don't want to wait years for a b pillar to be shipped to the US. I only reason i am considering this b pillar is because my 8 HAS the ms body on it. So i do have the MS look. So what u think will it be too much if i put that b pillar on even though i have the genuine MS body or should i just keep it as is?

I personally like the MS CB trims. I have them on order....to each his/her own however. What ever goes there will be much better than the black tape we all have currently. It scratches very easily.

yea I got mine from cz, only drawback is the wait. Takes roughly 2 months to get the product to your house after you order it.

Guys,

I bought my "RX8" b-pillars from rosenthal. They are polished black with the RX8 logo at the bottom. I put them on a few weeks ago and the positive comments have been great. Nice and subtle, not loud, not to quite.

Check it out...
