Sorry, but that just not do it for me (oh yeah, it's not my car). Perhaps a brushed aluminum or carbon fiber on the RX for me (oh yeah, I have the Mazdaspeed carbon fiber parts) 
Enjoy though!

Look like a perfect cut out and the pattern looks ok.
Do you mind telling us how much and what the quality like?
Who is the eBayer selling those. I don't mind getting a set for my Dad's Nissan XTrail

aluminum would look cool but wood just doesn't do it for me in an RX8. Also fake wood usually looks better in a darker finish. The lighter the finish the less grain you want to show for fake wood.

Kit was 100.00 from Kickin Dash in Daytona Beach-They can also be found on ebay. This is real wood (oak burl) however it was also a prototype and I had to re cut the radii in the radio parts because they would not clear the buttons. Why am I repeating myself

Don't forget that most of the original sportscars had wood dashs. Triumphs, MG's, Fiats, etc. If you get freaked about the dash, then you'll really freak when I say that I'm looking for wire wheels with spinners. :D
