Ride Update!!!
Ok check this out...I did some updating on my baby. I'll include the before and after pics, but I've just installed a brand new mazda speed body kit. Sitting on my living room floor is a cool air intake and ram air nozzle from racing beat.
ENJOY
ENJOY

They look sweet on your 8. I'm still on the fence about putting them on mine or not. I bought a set from another forum member here. I was going to have them gold plated to match my emblems but still not sure.

it's your choice...I like them because it breaks up that black section....kind of like putting a racing stripe on any other car.
