Those are Accolade Cspec fenders. The fitment isn't perfect on them but I like the look. I'm gonna buy the Seibon TSII hood and I think that the vents on the hood and fender will give the car a very unique look.
(BTW I'll be getting my hood from Rishie too, so if you need some Seibon stuff he's the guy to talk to)

Well Derex'8,
you've officially met the owner of that vehicle. hehe.
I've got several renditions of it. i've widebodied it since then and now is running the same wheel but with A LOT MORE LIP.
Car is pushing a good 450whp est.

I forget the actual specs on my alignment but it was something like -1.6 up front and -1.9 in the rear. On my way now to borrow a friends fender roller and will get some shots of it when done.

yes, fenders -- where?!! is it a widebody-esque or just vented fenders?
op -- sweet wheels by the way. i personally think 255/35 would look better, just to get a lower profile to avoid the monster truck look, but overall the size and lip and spoke design looks awesome.

Here are shots from a few months ago. AME Tracer FS-01 18x9 +31mm all around. I recently curbed two rims on the way home from the bars one night, but the damage is aesthetic so i need to get them repainted. I'll probably end up changing them to an OEM brighter silver or darker color. Pondering...

Throwdown,
**** Milpitas cops would pull me over in a heartbeat as soon as i started that loud *** rotary ported car. lolz..... It's ironic how you build a car up so much that you just can't frikin drive it anymore. WHACK.....
In response to 2tone
I want to mention that
255/35/18 is just too short of a tire for the RX8.
You can run 255/40/18.
Thanks,
Rishie

really? hmm, that sucks. i guess i'd have to see a picture. i believe you, no doubt, i juts feel like 255/40 would have a huge sidewall! oh, just noticed the 18 ... i want 19's, would 255/35/19 work?

wow that looks great! the pic i posted was also with 285 wide tires too, and probably less camber.
by weak fitment, i mean front spec was 18x9 +37. not aggressive enough. the wheel in the pic i posted was from when i test fitted a used set of ssr professors

Well after aproximately 4 mos and some change there finally on....Good heavens!!! It's been a wait but well worth it imo...enough blabbing anyway did some searching and to my surprise didn't see a thread for us AME owners 
So post away Gals & Guys...
My setup: AME Circlar RS 18x10+38 all round wrapped in 275/35/18 rubber
Badonkadonk!!!
The wheels themselves weigh in @ 22 lbs
which is not bad considering the width...Have some Rt615s Imma throw once it wars up a bit..
