Mugen CF Wing fitment

[SiR_YO]

Anyone installed a Mugen Wing from Seibon here on their ep?? just wondering if any modding will be needed or if it'll be strait 'bolt on'?

pics would be great too, thanks


*edit* check 2nd page for pics of it on my car

It needs modification.
Sebin mugen cf spoilers are made in jspec.

exactly what kind of modifications are needed? how hard would it be for myself to do it? or should I just go to a body shop?

How is it holding up? Are the newwer ones just as likely to seperate as the older ones? (noticed a few people were having trouble w/ cracks, etc)

Thanks!

Yeah, I posted in that thread along with the others (also on k-series.com). Yet the wing still looks good, and you can feel the difference compared to what the OEM wing was like at highway speeds.

damn.. maybe I should've gotten VIS? did you put rubber spacers to keep the wing from hitting the window?

It comes with gromets, can hit the rear glass. I used the left over gromet to make more space no knocking.

wing is installed, no modding needed, except I used the old velcro tabs to put underneath the wing (so it doesn't hit the window), tight fit (solid), and looks good, I will post pics up ASAP!

Thanks!

yeah, I used the left over gromet sticky stuff to buffer against the glass. No more knocking :cool:

[Ep3 No.2]

"gromet sticky stuff" ? does that mean velcro lol
but cant you see the velcro/adhesive on the inner side of the glass?

I used the velcro tapings from the stock wing and stuck em near the back of the wing where it's close to touching the window, it's hidden from view so it's all good.. doesn't move anyways, the SEIBON wings don't need any modding at all, and the quality is second to none

well I got it from SEIBON directly cuz we have an account with them.. so I can't tell your the price.. they retail for about $500USD

[Ep3 No.2]

damn 500 buck retail !
that better be some high quality shiet compared to the vis one.

that's retail.. I'm sure SEIBON can move on that price, and of course if you bought it through us we could do better than that too.. but pictures don't do this wing justice, the quality is amazing, I'm glad I went SEIBON over VIS

[Ep3 No.2]

wanna trade ? =OP

[ilive2r011]

my vis mugen wing is cracking all over the side of it. It was shipped to me cracked :mad:

Sweet! That's good to hear :cool:

If you wouldn't mind, could you shoot me a PM w/ a price quote for one, shipped to ZIP code 21403?

Also, do you know if Seibon makes a carbon fiber CTR replica front lip? I guess they never got a chance to return my email :p

Thanks!

Seriously? I always thought that aero mods wouldn't make a real difference until well over 100 mph. I'll rethink that idea if it's not the case.
