having a female drive isn't necessarily a good call sign of a good purchase(assume you mean it wasn't driven hard) unless she drove the pants off it,,, as you read around the forum I'm sure you'll find out that these cars are meant to be driven harder than other cars.... good find though congrats.....

Your RX8 is EXACTLY what my RX8 used to look like. 04 Titanium Grey RX8 manual with appearance package, red & black interior.

First upgrade = clear corners. The orange corners do not look good with the titanium grey.

I've only made minor appearance adjustments, and here's what my RX8 looks like now. Fender strakes, clear corners and mudguards make a big difference IMO.

paint reacts different to plastic and metal. thats why the front and rear bumper covers look a slightly different color. i recently had both replaced (damn parking lots) and the body shop (mr. spoiler, manassas va) matched the color better than the factory.

i like the slightly overexposed look. very nice color contrast and saturation.
