So clean Domino81! Love how most of you guys take the moldings off too! Best appearance mod for this car!
 
I wish I could take credit. I didn't do anything, it's actually how I bought it. But springs are on the way. And I may add the trim pieces back to the rear bumper. Those were deleted.
 
Chrome wheels have been media blasted and dropped off for paint. Should have them back in 2 weeks or so! Can't wait!
 
A question that came up this weekend while cleaning my stock wheels, can I use my stock lugnuts with the RX8 wheels?
 
Finally got my RX8's done and with new tires for the MS3.

Tires: Hankook V12 235/40/18's
Wheels: OEM RX8 wheels where chromed when I got them, had the chrome bead blasted off , then my buddy (who's family had a body shop in the past) did the bondo/sand/prep/paint on them. 350Z Gloss Black + 3 THICK coats of clear with Flex Additive. Wheels were just painted this past weekend, there's some minor inperfections in the paint, he said in a week or so, we'd have to wetsand and buff them out.

Quick pic I snapped at lunch yesterday. It's 90+ deg here and sunny. The tints do not look that dark normally and the wheels are kinda washed out in this pic.

Very dark blue-son, look nice though! But damn... I would've rocked the chrome. Too bad you couldn't paint a set of regular wheels.
