dude,
PZ spoilers are like rocking horse ****, i'm in the process of turing my 8 into a PZ lookalike, but the spoiler and rims r proving hard to find, your best bet is ebay, prob the UK one too as we have the PZ overhere :-D
But have your wallet ready cos i'll be bidding too if one comes up haha ;-P
Also, google european mazda breakers, see if some poor soul has wrecked their PZ, then see if the dealer will sell the bits you want,
hope this helps, cos its exactly what i'm doin ATM :-)

i got the mirrors now, and the spoiler, and the wheels hehe :-D they're gettin painted at my local shop this weekend, so i'll be fitting the mirrors and spoiler on wed, then on thursday, she goes into get dropped on Eibachs, uprated leads, tranny fluid change and my PZ wheels too, along with some other little bits done, WILL POST PICS SOON :-D
I'll warn you tho, the mirrors and spoiler cost me over £400 before paint lol, the mirrors also come on the 'Evolve' model, and the spoiler came on the 40th anniv too, one of my mirrors came off an Evolve, the spoiler and other mirror from a written off PZ,
But i found them by visiting online breakers yard search engines:
www.breakeryard.com/cars/make/MAZDA/RX-8/
http://www.partsgateway.co.uk/sitema...-breakers.html
www.carsparefinder.co.uk
www.hillsmotorparts.co.uk
They are some of the places i went to, enter your details and what ur looking for and they'll get in touch with you if the parts come up, little under 2 weeks and i had all the stuff :-)
Best of luck :-)

Spoiler Pics
Got round to fitting the spoiler this afternoon, bit of a pain, but not too difficult if
your mechanically/DIY able
Holes drilled through both boot skins (left side)
Mirror before:
Mirror after:
The holes drilled in the boot covered with rubber gromits right side:
Will post some pics at the end of the week when i've had it lowered and PZ wheels/badges fitted :-)

If I remeber correctly I used the 2 holes the inner columns cover and drilled the columns and wound 2 bolts in I also used tiger grip its solid as a rock now .
I found that I was and everyone else opened the boot by pulling on the spoiler and the supplied adhesive just wasnt enough.

oh rest assured, i wont be doing that, i've managed for 16 months to open the boot without the spoiler, so i'll carry on doing it the old way lol, but i'll keep that in mind, if it looks like its going funny, i'll bolt her on some more :-)
thanks for the advice

Spoilers are a nightmare for boot opening / closing; trying desparately to teach all my friends / family not to use it on my R3! I'm OK, used to using the little 'handle' on the inside for 5 years in my old 231PS!
