LA or Pasadena folks or Hell Any Socal people!
 

Hi umm I just made a pair of hand made strakes thanks to this DIY :

https://www.rx8club.com/showthread.p...nd+DIY+strakes

Only problem is they came out great but i cant seem to get them the exact shape i want (which is the exact shape of the real OEM strakes) but I dont have any other strakes to compare them to and I have been trying for days and I cant seem to find any other Rx-8's driving around anymore! so is there anyone in LA or Pasadena That I could maybe meet and they could help me out with getting this done... I just wanna get it done

Soblazin, I have the ones from UK but they're installed on my car already.


Why not buy some from your local dealership and then just return them...

sup man, Im in Pasadena. If you come down to the local all car meet on wensday you can compare them with mine. I think there will be 1 - 2 other members going also!

if your down ill get you the address! it's on foothill n rosemead at the whole foods parkingl if you know where that is.

both of u guyzzzz Gave me good ideaaz!!!!!!! I will be coming to the wednesday meets but this wednesday is the LAX Meet and I gotta show at that 1 You should come to that its just Rx-8's and 7's I do wanna compare them though.... maybe u could show urs a differnt Time and the getting strakes from the dealer and returning em... thats a great idea!

damn kid learn some grammar haha
good luck

Hayy do u think the dealer will take em back?

I dont understand? you made home made strakes and you want to SELL it to the dealer?

Not quite sure I fully understand either. But, sounds like bad part-buying karma in the making if it's some kind of scheme...

No, I think he wants to look at the OEM strakes and use those as a format or example to make his own strakes. Then return the OEMs after he is done.

YEa what he said!

Ah, i c... That doesn't sound so bad then. I'm not too into the look of the strakes myself, but it sounds like a fun project to do yourself. I'm in Alhambra, CA btw... :)

you guys should all come down to this meet =]

Foothill & Rosemead... There's a Starbucks at that corner, and Sears is on that same block, right? I would go, but Wednesday night is our company X-mas dinner. Our big boss is flying in from NY just to attend. So, it would look bad if I skipped it, as our entire dept. is going. :( Maybe I can make the next one...

Yep!, thats the parking center.

Alright man! see ya in couple weeks!

I live in Alhambra now too... :P I'll try to make it if I can get off work earlier.

Im not trying to divert anyone from going there but the LAX meet is Wedensday night and we are cruising some awesome roads there too its only rotary cars soo you guyz should check this one out this week since its only 1 wednesday a month and then spend the rest of ur wednesdays at the pasadena one... and i live in pasadena soo

^^^ man i wish i could go to that one. but my tires are bald as hell!, Literally slicks!


One false move on those roads an bye bye to my 8=[ i'll be comming for sure next month when i have my new rims / tires
