post some pics of the damage....I can fix it for you cheaper than buying a new one....and it will look as good as new, if it's repairable. I work in a body shop and specialize in repairing urethane parts...pm me if you are interested.

The standard 22v formula was actually too light in the paint system I use. I used a formula that made it more grey and cleaner. It is pretty darn close, so no I didn't have to blend.

I'm going through the same issue (broken flare). Ebay is as expensive as the dealers so your best bet is to repair or try to find one from a junked RX-8.
