Mugen style body kit for USDM model 2015+ Honda fit exist!!
 
I just test fitted a USDM Mugen style body kit with a body kit wholesaler in Socal.
It fits and it exisit!!

The kit is made of ABS / PU type material.
fitment : B+
i had to do a little bit of grinding and cut out the sideskirt area where the floorjack goes.
other than that installation was pretty straight forward.

cuz this is prototype i don't have much info regarding the kit
i'll forward this link to the shop that is making the kit and maybe they can post some detail info regard the kit

Far as I know I'm the first person with USDM Mugen Honda GK FIT kit in the US.

oo snaps game changer

2Rismo2 01-13-2016 08:53 PM

That looks great painted up. I hope the company will consider selling the pieces individually than a complete kit. I like the front lip and side skirts but not much of a fan of the rear portion.

:thumbups:

Kplayground?
 
Hey guys, like many others I would love a USDM Mugen style kit. I saw a few instagram and facebook posts from a while ago advertising a Mugen style kit for 2015 fits from a company called kplayground. Looks like they may be Canadian? Anyway, does anyone know anything about these? Are they legit, would they fit USDM? Thanks!

kenji815 02-02-2016 12:59 PM

kenji815 04-05-2016 02:09 PM

it should clear the clearance on the bumper isn't much lower than stock. it pretty much hugs the stock bumper.

xxryu139xx 04-05-2016 08:54 PM

this is a thread about one set of aftermarket body kit that is confirmed to fit the USDM GK. please stop hijacking and confusing other people with non-confirmed kits.

Damnit, y'all are making this too tempting :p

Is the brake light on the rear bumper functional?

yes, comes w misc wires so you can tap it somewhere. i will probably leave it not hooked up and as just a reflector

DannyJ7 04-09-2016 09:42 PM

$299? So getting this when it warms up!

How's the fitting overall?

TofuShop 04-18-2016 12:15 PM

Front lip is tight and fits pretty well. Slight gap on the driver side where the fog light cover is. If you paint the lip body color, it would be hard to notice

Sideskirts need to be heated up a little to make them shape to the body better. There were dimples in my lips from when they were released from the mold. They had to be filled in and smoothed

Rear lip fitment is pretty bad. Needs to be heated up to get it to get closer to the bumper (otherwise there's like a 1/4" gap in the middle). But when you do that, on the right corner where it screws into the bumper, there is now a gap that will require like 3 washers or so. Corners where it meets fake grille vents isnt that tight either

Lip kit is still at the bodyshop waiting for paint. I'll post closeups showing imperfections when i get it on

If you're a perfectionist, i'd pass on this kit. If you're getting it for the hell of it since it's only 250$ (be prepared to spend 3x more on paint and labor if you want it to look decent), go for it.

hey Roksta, does your Tanabe fit under the lip? any pics to show clearance?

It clears, but the corner hangs down a little in front of the right tip. It just needs a little trimming so it doesn't melt.

Are there any carbon fiber rear spoilers for our usdm model?

roksta 04-26-2016 01:41 PM

I haven't fully installed the sides and rear yet, but do you really just screw these right to the underside of the body? I think I'm just worried about rust forming.

roksta 01-02-2018 10:10 PM

Careful with these if you live anywhere that has cold winters. It was in the 20s for a few days and I came out of work to a crack in the center section of the front lip. The lip basically shattered in several places after that. Whatever material they used to make (at least the first round) of these kits is really brittle when cold.

That sucks. Have any pictures of the damage?

Guillermo Rodriguez 01-06-2018 08:20 AM

love it so nice

ThadCastle 01-07-2018 11:15 AM

That was one of my fears about purchasing this lip. I want one bad, but we just had a lot of snow, and while I was driving through it with my car I was just thinking about how much damage it would do if I had purchased the lip kit last summer. Of course I could remove it for the winter, but that's a bit of a hassle.

The ad says the lips are made of polypropylene, which is used in a lot of newer cars and is probably the same material that the bumpers are made out of, just not held to as high of quality as an OEM. I figured they would probably be FRP until I read that they could be better formed with a heat gun.

ThadCastle 01-21-2018 11:48 AM

These were everywhere on eBay for $130. Now it looks like they're going for $500. Any other source for these?

I believe there is a distributor located in Southern Cali. I have yet to find them! Will share info if I do discover the company as I am visiting So.Cal again next weekend! Can't wait to run thru the mountains in my friend's 2018 STi!:thumbups:

nisco 01-26-2018 10:43 PM

I contacted a few of the sellers with the $500 and $900 pricing, the reason why the price was so high is because they are all waiting shipments for more lips and "eBay system" raised their prices to prevent people from purchasing. I'd like to purchase a front lip as well so let's keep each other posted on this thread :)

Thank you! Very good to know that more will be coming. I was interested in the lip and skirts, but I am even more interested in the rear bumper piece now that I know that the material is PP and not FRP, and can be heated to Fit a little better. The above story about the lip becoming brittle and shattering in the cold weather does make me a little hesitant though.

statyksyn 02-07-2018 09:06 AM

Anybody have a direct link for this kit? sorry if i missed it im new here and in the us. I love my fit but this kit is beautiful :D

Arcade Ultra FRP reps made soon
 
hey everyone,

so after hours and days days of searching I realized this once cheap kit is now super expensive and unreliable. Furthermore the anti dumping laws, tariffs, and outrageous shipping charges make this more difficult to get.

i decided to say fuck it I’ll do it myself.

i bought a Taiwanese set for the JDM bumpers (minus the front lip because I opted for a full mugen front bumper) ordered on Nov. 19 2018 and expecting it to come December or January due to holiday and Anti Dumping law delays.

i will be working with my buddy’s body kit hustle, who’s instagram is @arcadeultra_ to modify the rear apron to fit a USDM model and possibly sell reps for you guys.

if you are interested stay posted I will update as the year comes along 2019.

you can also DM me on my IG @baja.brigade or his @preciadoe and @arcadeultra

no price is set yet
no solid schedule yet

cheers!

Pitpit 11-22-2018 01:51 PM

I have this same kit and bought it when it first came out, paid around $250 shipped to Washington state. Was checking around for rear wings for the Fit and saw that these same kits not go for over $1000 on ebay!!!

Glad I bought mine when it first came out. OP is correct with fitment, it is pretty close but there will be some "massaging " needed if you want it show quality. And since this is my wife's daily I really don't care for show quality.
