I think they are the same. Remember how TSX.Fury w/ the euro-r kit for 05 never really got the back end perfect? I'm guessing the rear is just a difficult fit.

There is already a 04/05 mugen replica, it can be found on eBay depending on what week it is and whats on sale.
Also, if you chose to do Euro-R (there really is the most demand, with no replica product for this one), you could sell the same sides + rear, and just a different front piece for 04/05 vs. 06.
And stop asking for 06 mugen people, its a horrible lip with all the cutting and replacing parts you have to do. I don't think he's in the business of designing new lips, just replicating successful ones.

The 2006+ Euro-R looks like this:
edit: notice how it sits on top of the existing foglight setup and introduces new lines around the edges.

probably $600 for the full kit plus shipping but not painted
so its probably not worth it for me to make it?

I'd get it.
Let me know if you do.

i think it would be hard to do, especially when the original kit is $1400 painted and shipped from japan.
keep in mind that the original kit has factory/oem paint which is immaculate.
but then if the price is lower than $600 and people can get the replica kit painted cheaper than $800 for the whole kit, it might be worth it.
personally i would buy the original kit as i have those now, $1400 for painted kit and has oem paint isnt too expensive.

but others are asking for it, so maybe someone else will buy itI think the Phase/Spoon bumper would be a good target. Its simple and the real thing costs $1400 unpainted

i think, you should replicate 06 mugen bumper and probably the whole mugen kit too. we all know that mugen stuff is always expensive.

Yes, I do not want to be making any modifications to the stock OEM bumper. Which is why I vote EuroR lip kit for th 06's or Phase Bumper.

Yes, you would probably have a lot of interest in phase, but its a whole bumper, not a kit. You haven't said if you're able to do that yet.
If you are, people would also clamor for the Mugen full bumper replacements. There are already replicas for the 04 mugen kit tho.
I myself wouldn't be interested in anything outside a euro-r kit, but I don't want to influence this discussion any more, since I'm unlikely to even go for that unless you got a better price than you posted.

Exactly....., its expensive which is what has kept people like me from buyin it....., I know everyone will say "you should be able to afford it... if you just bought an acura" But overpriced is overpriced no mater what your putting it on.... and I for one would defiently buy a Phase replica if it were available.....
