rear wheel well exterior....what is this?!
sorry I don't have pics, but on my stock 04-RX8 there is what looks like factory stickers on the front side of both rear wheel wells (on the outside), it looks like they are some type of cover for something? anybody else have this?

oh, yea it just looks cheap to me, are there any aftermarket overlays/replacements for that sticker/piece? I'd like to find some fendervents like on the front to match if there are any....

You could get a clear bra for the entire car I guess then you won't see the outlines anymore?
