Yeah i saw that rx3 last night, man that thing was pretty...The host didn't know what the hell he was looking at...It was funny the owner had a rotor shaped cap, the host asked if that was the symbol for the cadillac...lol

scroll down to that episode. watch the video. there's an rx7 that pulls up in the line up on the right at the opening. but the video doesn't have the rx3 in it, bummer. i'll be watching for the airing of it in Dec.

Yup, blacked-out bezels are definitely tighter!

Yes that's correct Rotaryboyz.The rx3 does belong to one of the VMRC members.It's being prepped for the Old school show in Bpt. in August.It's getting alot more chroming done to it and it's coming out very nice.Hope to see at lease one of your projects there at the show.
