Man you have made me jealous big time! When we bought our GD3 the Mugen options were not many and we had to purchase from outside the dealership. All your new items look great and really give you car that something special look. Keep it up! We need more Mugened Fits!

Yeah- the wheels...hmm. Not my style. The visors too- I don't like them as much as OEM's and even them, I just can't help feeling that they bring the 'sporty look factor' down a few notches. I find that driving in the rain, it would be great to have them at times, but they lean towards geek and away from sporty, to me. So I haven't made up my mind yet. Gonna get the OEM BSM's for sure though. But hey- it's YOU that needs to like what you have going on! Enjoy your investments!

GD3, If you like what you did that's all that matters! Looks nice, man. Not a huge fan of those Canadian wheels... but that's not to say they're bad. Just not my taste in wheels. Otherwise, there's a whole lotta' "snobbery" goin' on in this thread.

Don't you just love the way some people -- who more-often-than-not can't afford a McDonald's humburger... have to make fun of those who [possibly] afford only what they can afford or, purchase only what they WANT to afford? Much less slamming others for at least trying to make something look nice (or at least look nice as far as they're concerned).

Critics are everywhere. Most of the worst crictics have little or nothing themselves, have diminished self-worth, are unhappy with their own lives, or are legends in their own minds... so they make up for it by trying to appear they have some kind of upper-hand on everyone else.

Doesn't matter if what you have is real or not. If you enjoy it, you do the best you can, and it looks nice to you, then the "snobs" can bend over... reach their hands back, under and in... and do some much needed exploring on their own!

I mean, we are only talking "real" carbon fiber accessories as opposed to possible "non-name brand" accessories which, look the same to the untrained eye. (only informed snobs would know the difference )

On the other hand... this is so important, you can rest assured the FBI and CIA will be on the lookout for these types of offences! Forget that stolen Da Vinci, and those stolen nuke secrets from Los Alamos Labs... those "fake" carbon fiber accessories surely take precedence over those minor issues!

Even a simple auto forum [apparently] has it's share of petty Penelopes. What a shame... I guess some people really need the "shot of confidence" which comes from slamming others, instead of slamming their own "vehicles."

Anyway, good start, GD3. Whether real or not, it looks good to me. Then again, I'm probably diminishing the world-renowned, esteemed nature of this globally-regarded forum!

Enjoy your new stuff!

~ Agree with you~

GD3, as long as you like the stuff, I'll say go for it. Everyone have a different budget so as long as you believe you spend the money well, and no regrets, thats all that matters.

IMHO, however, those who knows the stuff can tell between real / fake. I don't buy "style" things, I just buy Mugen - even if I have to save up and not eatting that Hamburger

Where abouts are you in Canada?

Exclamation

I dont think "style" things are any problem if the quality is good and fittment is great just like the one I bought and I totally and happy with it
The so call "real" things may sometimes be fake even tho they are sold as "real"
At the end of the day is all a matter of being happy with what you got!

Hey I'm not one to judge anyone's car but you have to admit the thread title it totally misleading. These are imitation Mugen products. Ideas and concepts stolen from a company that actually does research into their products and had a partnership with Honda.....quite a huge difference compared to a company ripping off designs just to make a quick buck! If you're happy with the parts then good for you!
