I want to move my front number plate....I think it hides part of the 8s character(aggressive nose)

So, I was thinking about a vinyl plate on either the bonnet or under the Mazda badge.

Opinions on the legality and appearance of such an application welcomed.

Those wheels are gash kerbed,corroded, scrapped cheapo tyres..plus there my mates and hes stationed in Canada for 2 years....

Ok, I see. From those picks they looked quite nice :)

You could truck it to Finland.
There are quite a few boats being trailored to Finland.....you might find space on a truck.

Let's suppose a friend of a friend has exactly the same car as I have...an RX8 Kuro with exactly the same mileage (53k) totallt standard and no starting issues whatsoever.
Now, suppose this guy wants to get a sub 6s 0-60 and doesn't want to go mad with mods and money (say £1k-£1.5k).

Could I.....I mean could he achieve this with that kind of money without it being detrimental to reliability?

If so....how?

Please be aware that this friend of a friend isn't tech savvy so please keep the advice as simple (like me...i mean him)as possible.

Thanks

A pal used it on his caraven tyres.
it had been stood for a couple of years so he used this stuff, applying it a week before moving it.
Unfortunately he shed a tyre within a mile.......so, between you and I we still have no idea if it works:)

Mine is a totally standard RX8 and in good condition....see photo in RX8 photos.

Skinny blue leads or fat 1s?

I'll try to get a photo in the morning.

fat or thin is subjective and caused no end of disputes between my ex and I.
I'm convinced I'm anorexic ;D
she reckoned I was fat.
