Last thing I need to do is Remove that Rear rotary thing and the lug nuts on the wheels. Thanks for the comp. Dondo.

I feel the same way, but then again not everyone likes the way I've gone with my car, so as long as you like it it's good

I thought about doing it, but I don't think I should. I think I need it to shine bright considering what little I already have at night to keep me from getting rear ended.

I'm with rotr8 and think you need some contrast. But if you want to finish off the look then here is your to do list.

slam it
paint the calipers black
paint the rotor hubs black
black lugs
tire shine

Thanks for all of the inputs/opinions. You guys have truly been alot of help tonight, and got me thinking on what else I should get done.

I used overlays from rx8strakes.com for all lights

Now I have a question for you guys. Should I keep the stock body look or should I get the autobauhn(spelling?) or the ms kit.

+1 Also:

Paint rear bumper plastic BB
Paint Exhaust tips black (high T w/e)
Some drilled/slotted rotors would look sooo sick
paint headrest rotors black (you can see them through the windshield)

obviously none of that needs to be done it looks sick as is

I'd go for red rotors in the headrest, just because of the interior. Oh yea, about your third break light, you can just get a mask.

This one would probably be best. http://www.rx8strakes.com/index.asp?...ROD&ProdID=313
