where to buy rear rotary crest?

Does anybody (other than Mazda) make a rear rotary crest for the Rx8. I'm talking an aluminium or stainless rotor shape, not the brake light type.

I would be interested too. I cannot justify paying 60 bucks for the Mazda made accents.

People will pay $4000 + for the GT upgrade but scoff at paying $60 for a triangular shaped piece of metal...

Think of the engineering that went into that bad boy... :p

Howard sells the accents. If you go on ebay and search for RX8 Fender Strakes, you will find Howard. He sells stainless steel strakes and rotary accents.

I was wondering about this too, but it looks like about $89 plus $18 or so to ship, using a currency converter (comes from the UK.) Quite a bit more, even for stainless.

That comment only makes sense IF I bought (or plan to buy) the GT upgrade. As I don't, your comment is irrelevant.

That's like saying some people would pay $10M for a particular house, but they wont fork out $20 for dinner. The point is I want the dinner but I'm not Donald Trump!
