my rx8...gone

well, at least until wednesday. had to go for some body work after being rear-ended. also managed to get the 2 recalls taken care of as well as replacing my hvac ***** (one fell off) and taking care of the brake squeal (hopefully).

on the plus side, i just ordered my rims, which is supposed to be shipped out tomorrow afternoon and arrive in 3-4 days (as seen on slllygrl10's 8, very nice)

Darker wheels look great. I'm surprised more car manufacturers don't have them as options from the factory.

unfortunately, i did not upgrade to baller status by getting 19's. i'm gonna stick w/ the 18x8 and try to keep a relatively "stock" appearance. after they get in, i'm gonna get some bfg g-force kdw 2's, as summer here in the pacific nw is all but over and my stock potenza's are having difficulty holding on in the rain. thanks for the comments, pictures soon

one month! ouch! i was extremely lucky, espescially considering all the fatal accidents that have occured recently on i-5 here in seattle-tacoma. it's freaky, man. i think 3 cars have crossed the median and struck someone head-on. i was very fortunate to walk away with just holes in my bumper...
