Where Can I Find Rear Accent for Aussie RX-8?
 

Does anyone know where I can purchase a polished stainless steel or chrome rear accent for a 2005 Australian model? I purchased front and rear accents from rotaryfx.com but the rear one did not fit, despite my car not being the English model with fog lights that sellers warn you about because the accent will not fit that model. The accent I bought did not sit flush and had gaps on both sides, so I had to return it. Thanks.

try this http://www.rotary13b1.com/

I do not think they will have anything different as they have the same warning for their rear accents as rotaryfx.com where I bought mine (i.e. that they will not fit on overseas models). It seems I need to find someone who makes/made them for overseas models. It's funny the rear accent shape would be different on the overseas models? Can anyone help or shed light on this?

if you have the OEM rear fog light, then there's no chance you can fit with it unless you got the custom foglight that made to be fit with any accent from both website..

That's correct, it all has to do with the rear fog. If you don't have the OEM rear fog then you should be fine. I am curious what an RX-8 with an Australian accent sounds like! :)

My car was bought in Australia. It has no fog light. The rear accent from rotaryfx.com did not fit as it had gaps on the sides and you could see the tape and inner sides when you put it in. Would the accent from rotary13b1.com be any different? Anyone know why the popular accent from rotaryfx.com would not fit?

this is how the rear accent from rotary13b1.com look like on Derwankel's rear fog light :)

Thanks for the photo. My model does not have the fog light and yet the rear accent I bought from the USA does not fit!!!
