Come on the blues.

Post by RX8 Loon »

Normally shouting 'come on you reds', but it just had to be blue for the RX8. One year on and now with shiny bits.

9 yr old son takes better pictures than me, so added a couple of his.

Some pics after my recent Lakes District walking holiday. I've completely blacked out the plate in the first pic.

(Not particularly clean - but then winning blue doesn't show the dirt like some other colours :wink: )

night shots - Winning Blue

Post by mik »

Cleaned it for the first time yesterday, so took some quick night shots of my wife's new (05) rex last night. Just in the driveway, but a couple of them are alright. 10-15second exposures.

Tried to post in the gallery section but it's members only....so I shall post here and take my telling off when it comes :oops:

How about the Greddy/Trust Power Extreme Titanium, sounds great, save weight (under 7kg) and good power gain!

Winning Blue is sharper, more suited to the 8 as it is how a sports coupe should look!

Come on the Blues!!!! :lol:

Hiya Mike,

That is the natural colour of titanium exhaust tips, would not spray over an exhaust, and should not anyway. hehe...

Have a great day and weekend!

Hiya mate,

My wheels are only titanium grey/gunmetal grey as some may call it. Perhaps its just the photo which made it look a little blue ish.

Look forward from seeing you. Take care!
