I'm not in any rush to sell. Just feeling the market. I really do love the car.

Yeah I have test drove a lot of cars and honestly none of them light my fire and the ones that do cost way more than I can afford.

Sorry for the delay, its the Odula carbon fiber front lip.
My Nikon is broken so all I have is my cell phone to take some crappy pics here and there haha.

Here's a somewhat better pic.

I swapped trunks tonight with a 2009 VR Don't mind my baby, she is a little dirty and could use a bath.

9k, were your fenders and bumper repainted? Color looks a bit off from the rest of the car.

Nope, it's never been wrecked.

edit: or painted I mean, except the front bumper was when the emblem was shaved and the lip installed. But the bumpers always look off compared to the hood and fenders on RX-8's in certain pics, I have seen it on cars that have never had paint work done.

And actually I was kind of astonished that the trunk from the 2009 was such an exact match. I would have thought my paint would have faded some in 9 years of Texas sun.

Looks nice! I have a feeling that the lip would look awfully good color-matched though...

XXR 530. They must not have made very many sets in that size and color because they have been sold out since I bought them. My buddy wanted some for his Z.

Ugh! I hate winter. I want to drive my car so bad. It just sits in the garage everyday. I want it to look like this again soon.
