RX8 Black Bitch

Hi people.
Since our Eight came finally home from a series of unfortunate events, me and Deniska0080 would like to present you our ... well, is a present to my wife... so "her" RX8, aka Black Bitch.

This is BB at the tuning car show, in Frankfurt. Still with the unpainted rims


With the painted 20" summer ones


With the painted 17" winter ones


Some details on the car...
  • 2004 European Red RX8.
  • Fully repainted Matt Black
  • Front, Rear Bumpers and lower wings GTC imported from Japan and adapted to RX8
  • Rear hood modified as Z4 shape
  • Fron fenders modified with shark style gills vent exausts
  • Red seat leather substituted with perforated NAPP
  • Inside of the doors and accessories in leather rebuilt by hand too
  • handbrake in leather
  • illuminated gearshift ****
  • metalic plate in the passenger's feet place
  • parking sensors
  • radio dash and transmission tunnel repainted in piano black varnish
  • new coilovers
  • updated starter (zero flood possibility)
  • new brakes with ventilated perforated disks, carbon ceramic
  • Remus sport exaust
  • Summer 20" tyres with DPW repainted alloy wheels.
  • Winter 17" tyres with DPW repainted alloy wheels.
  • Every interior light changed to LED

  • Touch interface CentraFuse 3.2 for the carputer Windows.
  • Changed navigator monitor with a Touch Screen

  • Blue illumination in the trunk
  • Removed the old navigator controls and moved the seat heaters controls in the armrest
  • Xenon lights
  • Led daylights
  • Placed grills in front of LED fog lights

Yes. Then we found out that it was taken by the police of another city. And the idiots didnt notify it to the police of our town!! So for several days we thought it was stolen!!!

Result? We had to pay 240 euros for the truck moving the car and 18 euros a day for the car shelter.... a total of 450!!!
And a couple of heart attaks!!!

But now SHE's home (i cannot say "IT's home" )

Why Blue LED trunk light? Too much red?

The front end makes the matte look good. But im going to definitely need to go with the piano black center console

Do you have a Solid State Drive for your carputer?

Glad you got your rx8 back

Glad it's been found. I saw your post a while back about being stolen. Anyway, did you get it back the way it is, or did they chopped some stuffs in it? Your "Black Bitch" looks good and i'm happy for you, you got it back without issues. This time, install a good security system, so that, it won't never happen again.

I think Shoggun is looking for you to tint the tail lights.

I have the viper system, with lowjack. It's pretty good, im sure you can find someone to do the install easily. Make sure your wife takes care of her
