like the subject says, is this a real mugen lip, or is it a replica mugen lip? i dont care if its either of those 2. the reason im asking is cause, i saw it some where else and it wasnt called that . it was some other not as reputable as mugen. i dont remember the name, but im also asking cause i cant find pics of the mugen kit, front lip.


well if anybody knows if this is a real mugen style lip. please let me know.

thanks


oh yeah the links here

This is a real mugen lip, looks nothing like the one in the auction.

Real mugen front lip doesn't fit on usdm bumpers and its fiberglass not ABS plastic.

I believe that is the real mugen lip for our cars...an that bumper is not USDM its JDM bumper you can tell because of the front piece where the plate goes.

i want to... really really bad. but i think i'd get more bang for buck if i saved for boost. plus i only want genuine honda parts ... not the replicas... just not the same... you know? but then again... for side skirts 175 each. or 350/pair, isn't as bad as the CTR 505/pair. sorry if i'm being kind of vague... so far, my ride is all show, trying to catch up with some go. you'll see in july whichever i choose. sorry so long:angel:

Yea,175 for Sideskirts. $505 is good price for ctr sideskirts imo. Comes pre painted, perfect fit and good quality.

Aren't CTR's championship white? If so, they wouldn't come prepainted to match his car.

Seriously though, $550 a pair plus painting? Go with the replicas, they'll look just as good.

Yeah, no kiddin. If your gonna go all JDM they're gonna come painted championship white, so why not paint the rest of your car to match. And about the sideskirts, they are $175 for the pair, not per. Each piece, front lip, rear lip, and sideskirts are $175. He sells the kit for $500, why would he sell just the skirts for $350?

You can tell a replica from the original by looking at the lip. The real lip has that little mugen emblem on it, replica dosent, unless u put one on. hehehe

ok ok its 175 a pair... wut ever. if you want REPLICA then go buy replica. but i think getting real CTR skirts would guarantee PERFECT fitment... plus you get bragging rights. heh. :D
