Looks great! How hard was it to fit the Mugen lip? Did you have to drill away a large part of your bumper for the brake ducts on the Mugen lip?

got the work done by a bodyshop, so can't really tell how hard it was... i asked the guy who did it and he said, it fitted pretty well, he had just to cut the holes you mentioned and had also to make some holes to be able to reach the screws that fit the front bumper to the rest of the car...

it looks great, I like the eye-lids and am happy to finally see a slvr ep w/mugen lip, ADD a bc or mugen hood and that would look awesome.

as i said, it was getting dark :D imho the ep has far too large front lights... the eyelids make them a bit smaller....

uff :confused: a mugen hood would cost me about 2500$ here in switzerland... but do you have a pic of the bc hood? don't remember having seen one...

@the rest of posters:

here you go man.
BTW I know showstoppers over here in the U.S. sells a mugen replica hood for about 4-5 hundred U.S.$, you might want to look into possibly getting one from them, if that's the way you would like to go.

The bc hood has a reverse scoop, I'll see if I can find another angle.

thank you man... looks gooooood!
400-500 would be not that bad... but getting it shipped to switzerland would also be very expensive...

but well. winter is comming and i won't be driving around my ep... so i'll have a long time to think about what to do and where to buy :o)
