Haha naw, but I'll do that next time... in the dark lighting conditions it's a weird color... I mean to begin it's a weird color overall... imagine... bronzish, goldish, and brownish all mixed in one... with a hint of sparkle. And I was going for bronze or a dark gold... ha I was way off...

Clean.. but your undertray is falling apart.. get that fixed before the entire thing rips off on the highway. Happened to me this last weekend at Rotor Jam.

Act-shu-lly... the undertray is already gone. Here in Detroit, the storm drains suck and some ponds tend to form... well I got to be that lucky guy in the rx8 drive through the ponds... and BTW, the 8 does very well in water as deep as the front bumper.

Damn, I'm surprised you had the guts to get 5% tints. Those look pretty dark. I was thinking about getting 10%. I am also korean. Gotta represent!

i think if you expanded on the dark bronze/white color scheme your wheels would look much more appropriate. interesting but promising color scheme. keep up the good work!
