    2004~2008 Aftermarket wheel question

    Thank you for your reply. The crazy thing to me is that most wheel manufacturers dont have a wheel offset that will work with most regular sports cars. I am not 17 and am not looking to have crazy camber and all that. LoL I have built my car to handle the twisties. Eibach Prokit and Koni...

    2004~2008 Aftermarket wheel question

    I have had my 3 since 2004. I have done numerous mods and such in the past. I have changed out my stock 17s for stock 18 inch RX-8 wheels a few years back. However I have never gone to an aftermarket wheel until now. So anyway. I know the stock RX-8s are a 50 offset. And as I look for wheels I...

    I believe that works Yes I have heard that you can use a heat gun. The only problem that I can think of is getting even heat everywhere on the head light. The oven works well and @ 200 degree's the light doesn't melt

    Halo's MM3Canuck It isn't exactly easy but if you take your time it isn't that bad. It is more nerve racking that hard to do. Baking the lights isn't hard just baking on a low heat and not trying to hurry.things by turning up the heat. I am working on a walk through as well. I will try to get...

    what do i need?

    Carnuba MSP#735 I believe that you should always put at least one coat of Carnuba wax over the NXT tech wax. That should deepen the look of the paint. I use only Meguires products on my car and I only do the work by hand. I clay bar twice a year. I don't believe that it needs it more than...

    Eyelids MM3Canuck I got the eyelid's from a friend that bought 2 sets for his sedan and sold me the other set.They are Accolade eyelid's... I paid 30 dollars for them but they normally go for 50.00 to 60.00 a set. I painted them myself after a botched job by a body shop. Here is a link to...

    Insurance That "after you turn 25 your premium will lower" stuff is bs. Thats just a way to keep everyone paying there highway robbery prices.

Here in Northern California we have all done a Independent fog light mod. It is relatively easy to do or have done. I will try to post up a link to how we...
