Are you going to address the problem you have created by removing the 'mesh' part of the grills? I love carbon fiber and everything, but you now have 3 huge gaping holes that allow people to see the crude insides.

Yes we installed black round design grill on the back of the carbon fiber frame with JBWell. Will post images of the back of the grill soon.

You will not see 3 hollow holes.

Will offer free shipping within the 48 States for all RX-8 forum members if you mention this post.

Thanks

The rims are 19x8.5" 2pc TSW Pin Drive Limited Edition "knock-off locking style bolt"

I believe TSW discontinued these rims.

CF strakes is not a bad idea...we will look into it.

CF RX-8 emblem are available. These CF are insert pieces to the existing Mazda logo. Peel and stick insert. Let me know if this is what u looking for.

I saw them at Seven Stock and the quality is good. They are sweet.

I wish they made them out of plastic and were half the price.

CF is not my style.

I like the Mazda logo without the carbon back ground, they look like they are a black finish. Do you have these without the background?

just black out your stock ones, i did it on my miata, pop them off, sand them with 1000 grit paper, then primer them and paint them flat/satin/gloss black (whatever finish you like)

I did mine in flat black and then went over it will clear coat. 2 years in the sun and car washes paint never chiped/fadded/craked/peeled, it was perfect.
