I like the NSX parked next to your 8.
BTW, the 5 spoke rim looks better IMO.

I too like the 5 spokes...

However, I have to asks. Whos NSX is that?

I have only seen one in real life when I was driving through Dallas, Tx. Sadly this experience was only for about 10 or 15 seconds.

My friends dad used to have one. But he was killed in a car wreck so that kind of ended his NSX.

BTW nice VS kit. I would have chose the V1 kit though.

Nope, they are the Veilside Ver1 side skirts.

Why didn't you go for the D1GT skirts since you got the D1GT front?

Looks nice, if it were me, I'd spray the grills black, the silver looks a bit too much.

But nice ride.

Can't decide on the rims?

Trial fit the NSX rims on the 8 (I think they should fit) since they look similar to the 7spoke ones you posted above.

Maybe it's just the lighting, but I was thinking the same thing. Who painted the kits?

Also, go to Rotary Extreme and get some clear sidemarkers to replace those stock orange ones.

I've got to say that I dislike just about everything that veilside makes. But if you like it, that's cool. I'd go with the 5 spokes too. I'd also like to see a rear pic of the beast.

Actually, he wouldn't be able to do that b/c it looks like he painted the side vents the same color. I too think you should go black in both regards, though.

Also not a big fan of the side skirts. It may be the angle from which you took the picture, but compared to the Mazda ones, those look really bulky to me. But to each his own.

In reference to the wheels, I think there's a thread here where people have posted the different rims they've placed on their 8's. One guy with a black 8 had some really nice gunmetal-colored rims that are not either of the two you are considering. So far, I think his are the best I've seen on an 8, at least in his particular color (although I've seen it on a titanium 8 and thought it looked terrible because of the contrast of the two greys, but I imagine it would look good on red). I'd help you out with a link, but I'm too lazy to do a search right now.

I'd go with the 7 spoke. Nice cars, both the 8 and NSX.
