Can you get the Euro rear lip spoiler? I could not find a picture, but on the MazdaUK website it says: "To Improve Fuel Economy all European Mazda RX-8 models will be fitted with a small Boot Lip Spoiler. This is not an option." There are quite a few forum members that are interested in this item. Thanks.

 

Sure hope you can find them. I'll take one too.

 

I'm in for a yellow one. I even looked for one (Knightsbridge Mazda) while in London over Christmas holiday, and they couldn't (wouldn't?) order them yet.

 

Another interested party - for Winning Blue lip spoiler

 

Interested party for Titanium Gray rear lip.

 

I will see what I can do.

 

Another tit gray interested!!!

 

Black 8 - Interested

 

i dont think i have seen a picture of this spoiler.. can somone post a picture?

 

The rear lip adds an understated hint of class. People that are seeking attention won't like it.

Any updates Marshall?

They must be available somewhere because I saw a red 8 today with just the lip spoiler.

 

Ned, your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to track down the owner of that red 8 and find out where they got their lip spoiler!

MazdaUSA, you can make this a lot easier on us! Marshall, let us know if you've made any headway.


Until we can find a supplier, here's the best plan I can think of...

There are folks in the UK who want to get rid of their standard lip spoiler so that they can add a big wing without leaving any holes to fill.

(Check out this thread: http://rx8ownersclub.co.uk/forum/vie...hlight=spoiler)

There may even be some owners interested in a clean look with no spoiler at all.

Maybe we colonials can set up some sort of trunk/boot exchange with these blokes across the pond. Bloody good win/win if you ask me, especially if the only cost will be shipping.


Picture tpryor on his next UK visit with his luggage checked to Heathrow: One RX-8 trunk lid, yellow. And then him going around trying to peddle it around UK Mazda dealerships and owners throughout his vacation.

 

A soon to be Titanium owner who also interested. Any progress?

 

I've done some follow-up myself, I've inquired direct with a dealer in the UK as well as having an aquaintance who lives there inquire also ask and basically got the same price. You will not believe it.. what total crap for such a small piece! The prices ranged from £479 to £551 sterling, yeah that's over $1,000 US dollars.. WTF!!

If you can come up with wayyyy better I think some here would buy, but not at the price above.

 

oh jeez. 1K?! Wow.

Do you have to drill the trunk or is it just stick on?

 

screw that..i'll just go to home depot and make one out of venetian curtains..hahah

 

At 1K you could in fact go to someone and get it manufactured much cheaper.

Yes, you will need to drill 4-5 holes and it also comes with adhesive sticky stuff.

and you thought the strakes were expensive

 

1000 dollars....hmmm...cant believe it

 

I'd be the first to buy for $150-200, but I don't see anybody selling...

 

The Mazdaspeed spoiler is only $840 which includes the trunk lip piece, how can just the lip be $800.

I am in with the rest i the piece was less than $200.

 

I agree. $150 - 200 and I'm in. I may not challenge him on picture taking (although I have the same camera...)but I would challenge BrotherVoodoo to see who can order first.
