They have been easy to return stuff to in the past.
They might even exchange them after 30k at tuneup time without checking them, IDK.

I considered the BHR ignition, but opted for OEM.
This is a reasonable expense, along with NGK laser iridium plugs, $86, and NGK wires, $33.
It also is a practical way, IMHO, to plan and budget for a 30k mile maintenance routine, in addition to other regular maintenance procedures ; jack up car, rotate tires inspect/replace brakes, oil change,(2500-3000 mi. max), air & cabin air filters, clean ESS & MAF sensors, check trans. & diff. fluids, coolant flush, normal recommended maintenance stuff etc., and just give the car a good overall inspection.

Tail light issues
New to this forum, first post lol. I just traded my car last night for a 2004 RX-8, and the tail lights don't work but the hazzard lights do. I've seen a few threads stating it could be the wires, what I'm trying to figure out is if there is a fuse for those tail lights in the fuse cluster under the hood or in the driver door? Or is the fuse actually on the wire in the trunk of the car? Please, any help would be greatly appreciated!

Just burn off the extra moisture. It tends to build up more in cold and/or wet weather (higher % humidity conditions)

For example, if the local regulations requires you to have a roof, and you remove it, yes, it will be obvious.
If the local regulations require you to have Grade 8 metric bolts on your fender liners, no, they probably won't notice.

An exhaust cutout would be obvious. It would make your 8 hellaciously loud. Ear bleedingly loud. It would draw the ire of every friend, family, and cop, not to mention you're own senses. Even if you think THAT is appealing, check youtube for videos of RX-8s making flames and decide if you want that under your car next to your fuel lines.
As for a 'bypass', do you mean a cat bypass? Just get a midpipe. A proper midpipe isnt obvious without getting under the car, exception only for the smell. Many might not know why your car reeks of fumes though.
