Oh so much how I cant seem to spend the $2,000 on headlights. They look perfect up with the FEED bumper I am ordering.

I love her car btw such a well pieced together FD.

Front Splash Guards look good with the Side Aero Flares. Definitely nothing "taboo" about it

Yep. You just never know when they will do it. If you give them a reason to check then they definitely will open your hood and put a mirror under the car.

My Rx8 made my day yesterday, I down shifted to pass a G35 on the hwy and as am changing lanes the person on the G35 down shift and cuts me off. So I stay on the gas and change to the third lane and keep on passing hem and then cut hem off, ones I was in front of hem.

I was not trying to race hem, I was just trying to see how the car felt like with the new royal purple gear oil change in the transmission and differential.

I have to say it feels like silk went I shift now!!!
