.

It's tempting to buy just about anything for the RX-8 because you get so attached to the car. Save your money for other performance/suspension mods.

The 8 is a beautiful car already, which is why I'm taking appearance little by little...

everything looks good. id ditch the votex generators. They look like they stick up too much. If you get smaller ones they'd be fresh.

I'd ditch the Vortex, they just don't flow well with the lines of the 8.
everything else sounds good.

rule of thumb:

If you have to ask if it's Ricey, IT IS.

Ah much cleaner, rims would really set your car off right, the stock colored rims don't go well with your car. imo. It could just be the lighting. again just my .02

Yeah I agree, well it is bright out. but I am not a fan of the stock rims I guess as stock goes they are not the worst... but I am hiving an issue finding rims I like.
