Replica OEM lip spoiler

I had remembered seeing this in Hyper Rev, but not on the maker's site. It appears that it's up now. Leg Motorsports is making a replica of the OEM lip spoiler... roughly $260 USD. http://www.leg-sport.com/_original/GT-A/part.cgi

Lip Spoiler

That spoiler is perfect!!!

It looks clean...and goes with the lines of the 8.

Nice.

No problem! When and if I ever get back to the US... I'd want this or the RB spoiler anyway. Besides I know there have been some people who wanted one for awhile, but were never able to get their hands on it...

They have a "wet carbon fiber" version for about $360. The site says that it attaches with double-sided tape.

Seeing the prices that have been bounced around in the past, $260 is not too bad...

Speaking of Japan... sometime ago I had gotten a flyer from the Mazda dealer that I had gotten my Familia S-Wagon from... ads for new cars. It had mentioned (with pics) about offering the European lip spoiler for the RX-8. Too bad I don't have the flyer anymore... it was quite awhile ago and I've never seen it mentioned again. But I can tell you that the dealer is Hanakogane Mazda (花子金マツダ) . I'll post more info if and when I can find it.

Well the euro spoiler comes stock on the Shinkas now in North America so i think it would be easy to get them at the parts store

The limited editions models in Japan got them standard, but I don't see those LEs offered anymore. They were a kin to the SHINKA ... Japanparts tried to sell a winning Bule on ebay a couple of months back for $450.00 I think.
