Lightbulb Large RX-8 grille emblem as in front page photo of manual

Hi.

I have an 07 RX8. In the manual cover, there is a nice RX-8 , large ( larger than small trunk emblem ) on display on the grille. Emblem is white ( not chromed ).

I like that emblem and I have been searching for it to no avail, despite the fact the manual is a Mazda factory item. That large RX-8 emblem should be available somewhere by Mazda.

Anybody knows where to get one?

Happy 2011!!!!

If you can scan it and show me exactly what you are looking at, I can probably make you one.

You can see it on any factory depiction of the Mazda RX8, both SI and S II.

It is in the front page, frontispiece of your RX8 manual book that comes with the car.

Here is a link to an article with a photo of a red RX8 and said badge.

Why does Mazda show this emblem all around, but it is not available anywhere???

Check it out.

Its not on the grille, its on the license plate holder. Most factory cars display something in place of the license plate holder so you can get an idea of appearance.

The only idiot ignorant in here is you.

Is that how people talk in your ghetto?

Issues related to RX8s are not time limited. It does not matter if the thread was posted 5 or 10 years ago, it was never answered properly. The emblem in question is not a license plate, nor the rear emblem, which is much smaller than the one I am talking about.

Learn how to talk to others in a civilized manner, or else, go back to your ghetto

If you are talking about the "RX-8" on the front of the car then it is a plate. Without a doubt, 100%...

Although that would look good if it wasn't haha.

It's a license plate\fake emblem
You could spray your grille after removing the license plate. It may end up being cool!

What it is: is a vinyl emblem put on a backing plate. Any sign shop can cut it Or if you want it on something thick I could put double stick tape on some white plastic then make you a paper placement template, You could put it any where you want.

I have a laser company and can cut things like that real easy.
