I dig it, sergeant. nice agressive look. is that a siebon ts hood? what make cai is that?
it kind of looks like your new hood is a little high. you might want to recess your hood bushings a quarter inch to get better fitment. it could just be the picture though?

i was gonna say that it was aem with a blue finish. i have the silver in mine -- took me about four hours to install myself. my siebon hood took about 45 minutes to install because i played with the bolts. i cut them to fit better, and i recessed the bushings in front. it takes about 2 seconds to recess the bushings, which will drop the hood down for a better fit. i posted a diy in the tech forum if you wanna check it out. not much to it. but it might help.
good luck with that surgery, sergeant.

No - when I bought the car used it only had the rear spoiler and the rear aero pieces behind the wheels. I added the front air dam.
To be honest, I don't really care for the look of any of the side skirts (either the 1/3 appearance package ones or the full length Mazdaspeed ones).

I finally got my RX-8!! Here are some nice pics!!
Well.... I bought it April 24. It left Dallas, Texas May 6th and arrived in SoCal May 9th!
I have to say that when I first saw it in person I could not even believe how awesome looking it was.
What a gem! Mazda RX-8 is striking! I am so happy with it. I still don't know whether it's Titanium or Galaxy.
But as you can see from the pics, it is in almost new condition.
Perfect paint. Perfect interior. Only 19K miles. And it's a barrel of fun.
I test drove a Winning Blue 2004 GT in 2004. The guy at the Mazda dealer practically begged me to test drive it.
At the time, I was just looking... and I never really thought I would buy one. Now 4 years later, I snagged a beauty.
Enjoy the pics! These are all thumbnails, so you can click each one to view higher quality image.
I love the blue lit gauge cluster when you enter the car. (last pic) So cool. This car is just so flippin cool.
