BURNOUT my nordic green 8

See my nordic green 8 with BURNOUT kit. Thanks to adrian-1 and OMICRON, I could made up my mind. CF look does not look bad at all with nordic green and black. I don't know with other colors like blue, red, yellow, white and grey.... My 8 is lowered abt.17mm with Mazda Speed kit. Just have to be careful for some parking slopes. Mostly no sweat. Very comfortable and sporty ride in good balance, also thanks to 17in forged rims.

I would paint it ASAP. I think I like it, but the two color thing is WAY distracting.

Paint it.

I love the KS Auto Burnout kit. It is not to wild, like the Veilside. It is very subtle, and it keeps the lines on the RX-8 clean. I plan on getting that kit on my ti, in carbon of course :D.

Sorry I gotta agree with the others. It needs painting. But otherwise pretty sharp!

Looks great, and happy I could help. But I too would paint it to match at some point down the road...

I gotta weigh in with a vote for painting it as well. It may look better in person than in pictures...carbon fiber usually does...but I would definitely prefer the car in one main color. The kit does look nice though.

I agree with Jason, it looks fine without the painting.

To paint, or not to paint.... that is the question!
It was a difficult choice for me too. My decision was to lower the risks. If you don't like the CF look, you just have to paint it. But you can't do other way round. Besides paint job quality is depend on the mechanic or the shop. I enjoy this CF look some time and years later, I may paint all in my special color. That's another fun. :p

Hi mikeb,
As BIU said, it is BSR from Mazda Accessory Service. Racing Beat and Borla also look good but I can not get here. They gonna launch RB soon though. I like the round tail edge finish of BSR, some others just like cut of pipe.
