You can get one from Halfords for about £70-80 if i remember correctly, its the same one that fits a Escort Cosworth, should say Mazda rx7 on the tag to say its compatible.

Only issue though is if you have a fancy GT style wing on the back it might not cover up properly ??? :Nono!

The cover i got was the outdoor - Moltex, it was the SL size and it was £103.

Just be careful if you do get one as its fine to put on a warm car but as it has a plastic like waterproof outer it may start to melt/burn if you put it near a big hot exhaust.

Also it took about 2 -3 days in the post as they had just got some in stock, think that was an extra £10
