From what I've been reading lately most of you will hate this. It seems many people want to keep their RX-8 stock. Fine by me, but for those of you who dont, heres an idea. I'm a newbie to photoshop so if u have any hints/tips please tell me. This is an old rx-7 kit.

 

Are those machine guns on the front air dams? :D

 

hey duuude!! all RIIIIGHT!! :D cool beans on the low, sleek nose... FC-esque

some suggestions:
- add colour, don't be afraid, everything will be fine. pick your favourite.
- accent the low nose by enlarging the radiator duct (we'll pretend that intercooler is just the radiator) up to the top of where that small (and ugly) nose inlet is
- get rid of the winglets with the fake brake ducts in front of the front wheels (at the bottom of the air dam)
- :D keep the car looking like an RX-8 by removing the RX-7 clusters from below the normal 8 lamps... not bad, but crowded...
- just try nudging the whole unit up until it doesn't make the car look so tall (ummm, like double the front ground clearance??)

anyhoo, these are simply suggestions... you are the first poster to really come up with something that i like so much!! the low nose is absolutely fantastic!! keep at 'er mellennium.
i wonder... is it alright if i borrow your image and try myself?? i've never used photoshop before, so be kind

 

huzzaaaaah!! excelcior!! holy @#(% what a crappy job....

oh well, my first fast photoshop crack at modifying someone else's hard-completed work... i'm finally tired... not as difficult as i thought!! what an incredible program...

this is a very plain, unstylized version of what was origionally posted... just to see what it would look like, and if i could do it
certainly, this is in desparate need of some pizaz: this was an excersize in deletion and movin' stuff around, not to append or qualitatively improve the image.... also, i think i went waaaay too NSX for my liking, but this is SORT OF what i had in mind... if only i could put to paper what i see in my mind's eye... :D oh well, whatever.

 

Veilside front end with an intercooler? :D

 

Looks like the Feed Nose for an FD RX-7

 

I dunno if anyone here will really like this. Most of the posts sound like they dont like any aftermarket products.

 

That contrasting black hood looks pretty bad..

 

:O!! that's amazing!! looking at the shadows cast on the nose, i'd say that's EXACTLY the same picture he used to splice it!!

so, uh, what's everyone think of my PS skillz?? are they MaD or bad??

 

needs some practice if you ask me. lol im just playin but the bottom of the car shouldnt be so round and maybe a little lower. Clean up the edges a bit too.

 

Not a bad job, though I think the car is riding a bit too high, lower it and it will look even better.

Also, although these body kit ideas seem interesting, they do neglect something about the front of the RX-8- the fact that it isnt straight across. The center grill pokes out farther giving it a slight nose, which I like. These body kids look like a straight shot across. Maybe someone could make a body kit taking that into consideration?

 

heres mine i added color and another car in the backround

 

I like this one. Especially the front air dam. What I llike most is the breather hole in the top plate. Just looks kewl...image2

 

Bomex kit possibilities- back:

 

bomex side:

 

bomex front:

 

I like the Bomex except for the front has way to many vent holes otherwise I like that kit. It has a bit of a supra look to it at the rear end. Which I think is an improvement to the stock back end.

 

oh my god , those kits are awsome ! how do u do them? miata35

 

hey, very cool beans on all of those Miata35... kudos and a half.

 

Those 8's look like they come straight from hell... :D

 

... I would get white/eggshell like the Nissan Altimas with the satin finish and then just lower the car a little bit (2 inches at most)

then I'm considering having a custom emblem made for mine.

and then...

I'll be able to take over the WORLD, Pinky!
AAAAAAHHAAAHHAAAHAAAAAAA!

Miata35, the one you made with the blue and the cream one in the back is freking beautiful, but i think shave the winglets.

its funny... cause its true.

I like the x-car rear. Thats about the extent of kiting it needs. These are way too much. Unless you are going to do a multicolor paint job and put some stickers on it. Then it would be... too much.
