It's been more than two-and-a-half years since CarScoop reader Shawnz from Singapore piqued our interest with a custom project for a unique looking Mazda RX-8 Coupe.
To refresh your memory, back in February of 2010, Shawnz had sent us pictures of his project car, which at the time, was still being built and honed.
As a student, Shawnz had limited funds and time to complete the car of his dream, but he never let go and today, he can proudly present to us his finished creation that he likes to call the Blacknightz RX-8.
"After hard savings and refining the drawing board and the power mods...presenting the Decepticon to the Veilside 4509 GTR Supra," Shawnz told CarScoop in an email (if you're wondering about the Veilside Supra, click here for pictures).
He continued: "Let's just say there have been carbon fibre parts & Lightweight FRP molded and constructed, very minimal fiber glass involved and power mods added, tuned and refined with Knight Sports (Japan) goodies, to enable it to tear up the streets!"
We asked Shawnz to feed us more photos and perhaps even a video of the Blacknightz RX-8, and we'll update this post when he does. In the meantime, head past the break for the photo gallery and the comments section to share your thoughts on the car.

Amazing dedication by the designer and builder Shawnz, well done M8!
More pics if possible please.
Well built and all but i don´t like the Lamborghini style. I mean, you can use some design aspects of a Lambo but this is too much. Overall, nice job.
Reventon RX8?
from the side, the rear wheel arch makes it looks sort of unbalanced somehow..
I Love the fact that he corrected the things which were already done. Its shows true craftsmanship and integrity in work. I like it actually. Its nice.

They even have the same indicators (also used in Ford Focus).
nice, but i dont think a RX8 would be suitable for sharp lines and edges similar to a lambo. The RX8 is more bubbly, rounded and streamlined, and adding sharp features just dont look good. But overall, nice execution.
One of the sexiest Rx-8 I seen..I own one too..but yours look way better..
How much that you spend shawnz?
What the i can't speak right cause that's really really very amazing and that car I think that is Lamborghini wow well done to Mazda and the designer keep it going well done I hope your brand will be most popular in the world
Fresh and Unique! One of the Hottest Rx8 Eva!!!
