Has anyone heard anything about the Mugen parts for the EP? If you look through the gallery on this page, the white Mugen EP is amazing. I want the front lip and that grill immediately. Not too sure about that huge wing though. If you know where to get any of these parts, or know when Mugen is putting them into full production, please let me know. Thanks.

My best guess would be through the USA Mugen Distributor, King Motorsports (www.kingmotorsports.com)

They don't appear to have these new parts in stock yet.

Boy does that Mugen stuff look good though:

Does that guy have any ideas of pricing? I know Mugen is expensive, but if you're going to do it, do it right. I've had too much experience with Erebuni and other companies of lesser quality and it just isn't woth the value. The parts never fit great. We should all demand Mugen parts and provoke a group buy.

no scott had no idea what the prices will be. all he said was that he was in japan visiting mugen headquarters and he saw the kit and they said it would be out around end of summer

OK, thanks. I guess I'll just start saving now. Maybe by the end of summer I can spare the $900 for the front lip.

Yeah, I saw Scott at Mugen right when he was leaving. The Civic looks much better up close. From what I saw, the parts look as good as always. Top quality made in Japan.

Yeah, I here ya. I've been going to the japanese site for new updates regarding parts for the EP. I'm wondering if Mugen will do a full cat back or rear section muffler like the EK Civic. I'm waiting for their suspension too. What size is that rear Mugen bar? Does it make any noise at all?

What's the part number for the bar? I have the Comptech co-axial adjustable bar with tiebar integrated. It's making some clunking noises and I really don't need anything fully adjustable. I'm down to get the Mugen bar.

Thanks, much appreciated. Since you're so close to King, as soon as you here anything new for our cars, please post!! I'm so anxiously awaiting for anything from Mugen. Ever since I visited the factory in Japan, I can't get over them! They pretty much build everything in house. Everybody wears white jumper suits with the Mugen logo. I even saw a female working on some go karts there.
