Nope sorry. The RX-8 has dual round tips. There is a rotor shaped decoration in the middle of the lower part of the rear bumper though.

how about a tri oval muffler for a bike? they are shaped kinda like a rotor, and they can withstand the heat too. not to mention they come in shiny aluminum, titanium, or CF.
Just my $0.02

ROTARY FITMENT


The CYPHER INDUSTRIES Nemesis ROTOMuffler is a muffler designed for use with rotaries.
Specially selected high temperature materials are used in its manufacture. Stainless steel wool
and an extemely high temperature tolerant ceramic fibre is used as acoustical packing.
Note that NO glass acoustical packing is used as they commonly burn out in a few hours
of hard driving due to the high exhaust temperatures of rotary-powered vehicles.
The ROTOmuffler features rotor-shaped endcaps, with a straight 4" or 5" tailpiece / tip. All
ROTOmufflers are constructed of Japanese grade SUS304 stainless steel, and are polished
to a high lustre mirror finish. A conditional 3 year warranty applies.

The Rotomuffler can be fitted to the rear of any vehicle with generous underbody
clearance. Highly recommended for Turbocharged and Naturally Aspirated rotary motors, no matter what
porting is used.

Extreme temperature rating : up to 950°C
Sound Level Rating : Medium-Low to Medium

Hey, I'm in welding class and looking for a project after I'm finished...

How much would you guys pay for a rotor-shaped tip?
