I've had a plan for some stainless steel fender flares in the works and I haven't really eveer seen any other rx8's with them nor found anywhere you can buy some higher quality stainless steel ones. So before I go out and see about getting something custom fabricated I bought some cheap trim crap and put it on tonight to get an idea of if it's worth it... I also put some around the windows - any thoughts?

 

Uh no....

 

Negative.

 

pass

 

lol looks like popular vote is swinging towards ripping all that crap off It was a fun experiment anyway. The redneck in me came out and said to throw chrome on it

 

Just need some curb feelers to finish the look.

 

dammm, they make curb feelers for the 8?

 

Sorry man... no go rice factor = high

 

opinions= you just temp. ruined a shinka..get that off of there before someone sticks you in the "what not to do to your car thread". Car looks great besides that though!

 

No worries, I took them off about an hour ago already guys, as I said it was just an experiment. I just prefer to try and shake things up and do things differently, after all if you do the same things as everybody else you can only expect the same results. I'll just keep trying things differently on it until I get something that looks good.

 

Welcome aboard!!!

That's not shaking things up. Every 85' Cutlass in San Antonio had crap like that on it. Don't ever experiment with your Shinka again.

 

How much did you spend on that stuff?

 

Well, the next thing to go on it is a blower.. first I need to take off the hood so I can cut the hole for it and... I kid I kid

Anyway If i ever test anything out i'd only do something that can be easily taken off

 

And I spent $15 dshiz, it was just cheap trim that came in rolls of 20'

 

i think i just threw up in my mouth

 

Customizing an 8 is like making love to a new woman for the first time...you're always trying new things with her to make her completely your own! Hell.... half the fun with women and cars is seeing "what you can get away with". But what you spent on chrome tape could have bought you some detailing stuff...

 

Just invest on getting tints....lowering your car....etc.....maybe the aero package and your should be set....

 

the chrome really brings out the rust on your rotors.
