First mod suggestions?
I've been thinking about getting something new for my rx-8 for a while now, but I dont know where to start even. Appearance of performance? And if I go for appearance, what can I get that will make the car look like i've actually done something? I'm really not sure where to begin!

exhaust will make you happy. rims wiill make you stand out. youre not gettin that AT too much faster without forced induction, so you might as well enjoy it the way it looks/sounds.

I say exhaust, that was my first mod. I don't regret it, but wish I would of gotten a short shifter and new shift **** first. Since you have a AT however, go for the exhuast. If you have more money to work with mabye a body kit and/or rims, If I had a AT I would go with appearance first and preformance later.

clear sidemarkers.......I love seeing people that have invested thousands into exhausts, suspension, body, motor etc. etc. and can't spend $30-$50 and 10 minutes to get some clear sidemarkers installed.
From your pic looks like you don't have any flares, that'd be a nice start unless you're gonna do a bodykit instead. Window tint is always good too. Some AM rims, and lowering it doesn't hurt. Just lowered mine sunday and I love my 8 twice as much now. Looks so much better lowered and hugs corners tighter too...

Racing Beat sway bars, for less body roll, and better handleing.
Borla Exhaust, for deeper exhaust note, and sexier tips.
Aftermarket wheels, for a more aggressive look.
Clear Corners, well, it's just a must.
Tint, looks great on Velocity Red 8's.
MazdaSpeed Body Kit, if you have alot of money and want your car to look pimped out.

i dont have clear corners! and its not a must....i find that im the only one with the ambers nowadays...and ambers look good on red so leave em....but since you have an AT you should get lowering springs..

Upgrade the flux capacitor. the lower IAT will definitely help at high RPM's and you'll see a noticable change in power.
