Howdy,
New Rx8 owner here:
2004 w/ 43K miles
Velocity Red
6spd
I am a college student from WV and I wanted to do a couple exterior mods to my new toy. I want to add a spoiler, fender strakes, aero panels, front and rear rotary accents, and chrome wheels.
1) First off I was just wondering what your opinions were on matching color fender strakes instead of the brushed aluminum?
2) Has anyone purchased a OEM replicate rear spoiler? I found a company on ebay that does exact replica spoilers for $80 + shipping that are already painted 27a Velocity red.
3) I LOVE the stock 18in wheels on my car but I would like to get them dipped in chrome. Has anyone on here dealt with a company that will do that? I have heard about purchasing chrome wheels as long as you send them your stock wheels in place.
4) Also I purchased my car from a non Mazda dealorship so could anyone send me a quick overview about new owner maintanace such as preventing flooding or how often to change the oil?
Thanks guys, im glad to be part of the team!

Welcome. You can buy stock rims that are chrome. Check our sponsors and the for sale threads.
Make your own choice on strakes.
There are plenty of stock spoilers for sale in the for sale section.
Read the stickies in the tech section.
Get the new TSB done which reflashes the car to U
