Hey Guys.. question about the GE8...

I've just recently purchased a Taffeta White GE8.. LX.. and I understand that the JDM and USDM GD's and GE's are different, but what I want to know is, if I was to get a JDM Mugen or J's Racing body kit, what other parts are need for the modification?

Thanks.

Fit mugen

Honda sell the following MUGEN accessories as options.
Mugen Front Sport Grille $385
MUGEN Front Under Spoiler $560
MUGEN REAR Under Spoiler $540
MUGEN Side Spoiler $760
MUGEN Sport Muffer $850
MUGEN Oil Filter Caps $85
MUGEN XJ 16" Alloy Wheels $1,940

It is a little bit pricey, I think.

Take at look at the ajracing forum in here and check out their ge with the mugen front. They listed all the parts needed for it to be done. Looks to be a lot of work to have it complete.

Hmm.. Is that Honda USA that offers the kit? or does Canadian Honda would have them too?
I know Honda Japan would have them as an option for the Mugen kit.. but does any kits so far would fit the GEs? I want to install the Mugen kit, but just worried I have to change everything.
I was looking at AJR's it modification, I don't really want to do any wielding to my car.. =(

First to get a JDM front end, you need a lot of money!

A bit of a different perspective here. The LX is a good choice for us Canadians. With the amount of snow we get, it's good to have more clearance. Those lower spoilers defeat that.

That yellow 'JDM' Mugen Fit looks horrible. Mugen's style has gone a nasty gross direction in the past few years.
