FML, pulled over for a tint again by the same asshole cop with nothing better to do. Maybe its time for a new car that I won't feel like tinting.

Ha, a guy at work got the 2010 MS3 and him and his wife liked it so much that they got a CX-7.

picked up a bunch of car washing products... going to concentrate on the wheels and interior. Will probably wash and wax tomorrow

Just got some cash money so looking into a couple parts pretty soon! Looking at swapping out my ETS TMIC for the Altered Customs FMIC... Just tired of the heat soak of the top mount, plus I need all the cold air I can get in Vegas, since it's startinto heat up. Also, Qwik you still got the midpipe for sale? I want it!!! Then maybe in a month or so, grabbing a Cobb AP. What's your guys opinion on tge CP-E standback system? Saw one for sale, and was interested, but like the ease of use of the Cobb ap.

That sucks dude. I can't wait to move back to FL where they don't give a s*** and there are no state inspections. I mean, it is sunny as hell there all the time! And thanks for all the info @ the track.

I also got a nice wash today, and snapped some proper pics... car was dirty in the pics from yesterday. I didn't have a chance to do the wheels, but I'll get them next time. I didn't touch up the pics in PS at all... just got rid of plates, and cropped the pics. This is how the wwp should look clean, and in the sunlight:

wait wait wait... boosted, your going from the MS6 to an FD!??!!?

just curious, how is that more practical for a single child family than a 4 door roomy sedan?

or is that gonna be the proj car, and you getting another daily? iz confused.

Yep. I still need to get the required bolts since the ones that come with it arent long enough. ALso corksport didnt send me a new gasket with my catted midpipe so I had to reuse. Once I get the bolts and gasket I can ship it out. Unless you want to use the bolts that come with it and make your own gasket..

Ehh I can wait. But you definitely have a buyer so don't sell to anyone else

yeah i bought the wife a cx-7 too.. picking it up tomorrow and suprising her with it.. and the rx-7 will be a project car. just like mine.. the payments for the rx-7 and cx-7 are the same amount combined for the MS6.. the rx-7 is mint, always garaged and it was well taken care for.. (alright)(alright)

You should tint your side markers!!! It'd look awesome.. trust me...

Good call!! I think that would look sweet too. Do you just put tint on the outside of the lenses, or to you change the lens or tint the inside of it? Not sure how cops would like that... I'm sure there's a million options. I don't want that many. I'd like it to look nice and smoked, but not getting pulled over smoked. Any suggestions? The bumper's been off 3 times in as many weeks, and although it's easy, it's a bit of a pita. Next time it comes off, I'm just gonna drive around with it off from then on, lol.

 

[/RX-8Chick]

Lol I used Nite Shades to spray tint it. I think I have pictures somewhere.... They sell smoked LED side markers. I went the cheap route lol.

EDIT:

I don't have any pictures of it with the lights on.. but you can see the amber through the black when the sun shines on it. I tinted my 8 side markers darker.. whoops.. If I remember to, I'll take a picture tomorrow with the sun shining on it if you're interested.
