Front Grille Emblem
 

OK...I have searched and I can't find what I'm looking for.

Is there a replacement grille with the RX-8 emblem on it, or is there an attaching emblem or is it a black license plate, I can't tell. I've seen some pictures and I like the look of the large "RX-8" on the front...what can I do to get it?

what about removing the mazda emblem off the nose and moving it to the grill?

It is just the rear RX-8 Emblem of the car. You can buy them at rosenthal or mazdaparts, both vendors here.

The mazda emblem has a post, so there are holes behind it.

I think he's talking about the black license plate with RX-8 written on it, in white. Alot of Japanese advertisements have something similar to this with the car's name on it. :icon_tup:

i've actually seen what you're talking about searching pix throughout the web. the one i saw it on was a blue 8 parked next to a blue Honda s2k. i think it may have been here on this forum where i've seen that pic

can somone post this pic, i would like to see how it looks

is this what you are talking about?

I've seen the large "RX-8" on the license plate you are referring to but only in advirtisements. I don't know if anybody sells it. It would be easy enough to make one yourself and place it behind a plastic covered license plate holder.

Is this it?

no. that's just the license plate frame with "rx-8" on the plates. what i've seen is actually a billite grille like mine, but the grilles are a little bit thicker and spread out furhter apart. in the middle it has "rx-8".

well actually......now that i'm paying attention...... brothervoodoo, it's actually the same as the pic in your sig right now. so i guess there you have it??? is that what you're looking for Torchmonkey?

Picture is in the first post. I remember seeing it when I first joined. I've considered swapping out my front license plate for that, but NY is a front-plate-required state. :mad:

My pic it the mazda speed Grille with the Rx-8 in it.

Why not mimic the Mazda Kabura grill, which I think is awesome as long as you also copy the headlight/foglight design.

I Went To The Mazda Dealership And Bought The Replacenment For The Rx-8 Logo On The Back For $12.00 And It Sticks Right On With No Problem ,it's Been On For Over A Year.sorry For The Caps.

so is cali, and just look at my car ;). lol....actually, like 95% of us 8 owners here in cali don't have the front plate

heres the picture of the logo off the back hope this helps

heres a close up

Seems like putting the RX-8 badge in the center of the front grill would make the car appear to have no OEM means of mounting a front plate. I suppose it could reduce the chances of a fix-it-ticket if the LEO doesn't see an obvious spot to hang a plate.

true. the best way to hide that spot though is by getting an emblem or a front grille.

somebody here on the forums said that my car has "braces" lol.
