You should use try_files instead of mimicking the dyslexic mod_rewrite
way of doing things with .htaccess. 

location ~* ^.+\.(?:jpg|jpeg|gif|png|ico|css|zip|tgz|gz|rar|bz2|doc|xls|exe|pdf|ppt|txt|tar|mid|midi|wav|bmp|rtf|js|mov|ico){
   access_log off; 
   expires 30d; 
}

try_files $uri $uri/ =404;

Something of that kind.
