That was hilarious. I can just picture that.

Why not drill holes? I did that with mine half a year ago and never had problems again. Is there something I don't know? Did I lose some hp and tq?

Edit: BTW the smoked tails look great. I am thinking of doing that with mine plus the headlights. Nice job.

 

looks nice, usually don't like it on cars, but nice!

On a side note, when you debadged your car, how did you get rid of the holesleft by the "MAZDA" badge??

 

^they need to be filled and the trunk needs a repaint in order to do that

 

i bought the car debadged. honestly, i'm pretty sure it was in a minor accident and it was just... never fixed.

 

I like the debaged look. I'm going to do this one of these days. It's a nice and clean look.

 

i dont think thats such a good idea

 

...x2

 

I don't drive my car much at night. I don't want it too dark either. This is what I want: http://www.rx8strakes.com/index.asp?...ROD&ProdID=303

It's gunsmoke--7% darker than stock, should not be an issue.

Then the rear: http://www.rx8strakes.com/index.asp?...ROD&ProdID=298

Gunsmoke 7% as well, although its not pictured. Should be just enough to make it look different, yet not affect visibility.

 

is that legal??
lol anyways, it looks awesome....if you do it, you have to post pics

 

I doubt it, but where I live, I don't think its a problem

 

if you're buying taillight overlays, i DO NOT suggest getting a cheap kit.

they will rip and you will cry.

 

also, i suggest having a professional put them on. lol.

 

i second that.

now that mine are a few days old, they still look ok... they look GREAT if you stand about 3 feet back, but they turned out alright.

 

I would think the rx8strakes ones are pretty decent. They price suggests it...50 bucks a set.
