It should say Bathurst R next to the handles shouldn't it?

The 2001 R Bathurst R (release date August 2001) has the Bathurst R decal (sticker) on the car.
Go to http://www.mazda.com/publicity/public/200108/0830e.html for the details on this limited edition version.
Our car is the 2002 R Bathurst (release date December 2001) which doesn't have the Bathurst R decal on the car.
Go to http://www.mazda.com/publicity/public/200112/1210e.html for details on this special edition of our car.
The Bathurst R (our car) is on the Mazda Japan site with the Spirit Rs. It would pay to look at the pics on the mazda site as they are clearer and you will be able to see that the car doesn't have the decals.
Go to the Bathurst Type R website for details:

The sticker came on that car though trust me. I just dont think all of them did. Maybe an option or something (dumb if so)
When Mazda sold the Spirit R and Bathurst I saw the cars just about every 4-8 days hehe both of them..... Not to mention on the road.
I have to order some Mazda and ***** tomorrow so I will just ask them about it. It may just be an option or something.
I have the catalog around here somewhere, but Im too ummmmm tired to look ya thats its hehe
I will ask tomorrow though along with some other questions (for others that are reading this)

Ok that was easy, it was next to the parts catalog HAHA
There are all the Bathursts here in my little booklet hehe from 1996-2002 they all had the sticker (NOW be calm, I mean that doesnt mean ***** since maybe there are some catches to it, I really dont think so though) Im reading more now..
P.S the majority of the sticker is RED on these cars, they dont show a RED FD hints, maybe why we cant see it on the RED FD, still reading...
***** then they show the RED FD in the back more info, no sticker WTF! hehe
ah I will ask tomorrow.

For the earlier version of the Bathurst, yes, they had the R decals on the car (like the August 2001 version R Bathurst R).
But for our version which was released in December 2001, the Type R Bathurst, it didn't have the R decals. The stickers don't appear on the December 2001 version.
Check out the Japanese mazda Type R Bathurst website for pictures of the Type R Bathurst in white and blue - you will see that this specific version (the version that we have) did not have the R decals.

Thanks for all your help and enquiries but don't go to too much trouble to find out about the "R" decals. You've helped us confirm the best news we've heard since we got our car
