Nice, I love CWP.


But. It needs more low, less offset, and lose the eye lids, mazdaspeed stickers, and moon roof deflector

I like the eyelids but you definitely need to lose the deflector and the mazdaspeed sticker. Car looks clean! Love white rx8s

I like the sticker. I'm not crazy about the deflector but it has come in handy in the rain.

As for lowering it, I really really really wish I could but as my DD with a commute over 100 miles round trip over a few train tracks etc I'm a little nervous about lowering it. Not to mention the road kill I have to manage to drive over.

What I really want is some R3 wheels/rims, side skirts and a Mazdaspeed wing.

A minor lowering won't change your daily driving habits much, it's not like all lowering springs drop the car 2+". I am pretty damn low and I cross train tracks all the time. As for road kill, well you shouldn't be hitting that anyway

LOL I like the mazdaspeed sticker.

Lose the moon roof deflector and the rims ... sorry man ... like the color of the wheels but not the size or style.

Btw I'm a WWP owner as well and I hate my wheels

+1

im on a 2inch drop and the only inconvenience i have is going over speed bumps, no matter how i take them i cannot not scratch something. I just avoid those streets, no biggie. At full lock i can get out of my driveway without scraping too.

I also cross traintracks all the time without issue.

The only issue i have found is that i cant lift my car with my jack, it just doesnt fit under the car anymore.. my oem scissor jack aaaalmost fits. And it takes some playing around with elevation to make ramps work without scraping my lip.

I agree with lowering it. That wheel gap is horrendous to look at.
