wats the diff between whitewater pearl and snowflake white.. bc in january im getting a white 8 and its already on order for me and everything... but .. the dealerships in ny dont offer snowflake white..ive only heard of whitewater pearl..

Well if you've got a car "on order" then I would assume that it's an '07... which would be the new color Crystal White. As for the difference between Snowflake and Whitewater......no one has ever given me an educated answer. I do know that the US model 05's were called Whitewater while the Japanese 05's were called Snowflake.........however..........my US model 06 is called Snowflake.....and as I said earlier, the 07's are Crystal. Anyway, since no one could ever give me a straight up answer as to whether the paint codes were different or not.....I just went ahead and bought a JDM MS kit since I KNEW that they called it Snowflake, and Snowflake is what my window sticker read.

Oh and love the car Konig!

Nice pics Kris
Do you have maybe one form the back but lower just like you try to look under the car :)
I am interesting how it looks like when the bumper is all white

Mighty White ,,I like it.

Not right now bro... I just took these pics today actually. I will get some tomorrow for yah though...

Kris

wow nice and clean kris =)

Well I think you and I are the only two white 8's in the US with the complete Mazdaspeed kit. (or atleast the only two posting pictures on the forums.) Anyway your car looks great! I hope you post more pictures soon! Oh and be prepared for the leg humpers around here....... they love girl drivers, can you imagine how much they'll love a girl with TURBO!?!?!?

Your car looks great Kris! Love the wheels!

More pics please :)

Are you planing to get a spoiler ??

I want to Buy a Lip spoiler (r - Magic) But Its growing on me without the spoiler right now...

If I buy a spoiler, it will definately be an R-Magic, but im not sure if i should go carbon fiber or just straight white.....


Kris

STRAIGHT WHITE! If you break the clean white look you've got going.......you'll ruin it. Course I've never liked carbon fiber either..... it looks high schoolish to me. Just my 2 cents. :icon_tup:

Your rims are sexy Kris.

kris paint your rims black with a polished lip!

great looking 8 btw.

More Pics... !!
 

I got some better pics of the wheels, some people were asking what size lip on the back... they are 3 inch I believe, It could be a bit bigger, I dont remember, but its pretty deep. I took a pic to show.. It was a nice day out so i tried to take some more full body shots...

so your not thinking of painting'em black?

While I dont mind the black rim look... I think its just a phase right now, Plus the cost to get the rims redone etc... Probably will be more than what I spent on em...

Kris

Can you post all the details on your MS kit. I believe you said it was a VIS kit?

How much did it cost for installation and painting, and whats it called on the website?

How long was it in the shop?

I think your pic's my put your car to shame. After seeing your hand on the rim I can tell she looks 300% better in person!
