If it says Mugen? =P

not too sure, should ask people like xizor, if there's any special markings.

i've never seen a good mugen replica, so ask him for pic on his car and some closeup pics. i'm sure someone that has one could tell up close

I've always heard that the imposter Fugen grill, when installed has a gap at the bottom. It almost looks like its didn't fit right and it wasn't pulled all the down.

No '03-'05 JDM grilles have a pefect fit with '04-'05 USDM models, only the '06 models do...

You also need the hood trim jdm inner cover and getting it painted. Its going to cost you $$.I think you should go with the euro-r grill instand of mugen. I dont see euro-r kit going well with the mugen.
btw, How much are you paying for it?

I'm getting Mugen NR Mirror face pretty soon, so a Mugen Grill will look sick. I do like the Euro R grill, but i like Mugen better. Don't worry about the other parts, already got that order and I'm getting the Mugen Grill for $225 shipped. Can't beat that price.


This is the picture that got me sold with the Mugen Grill

just be sure that you get the top part painted flat black instead of color matched.

it should be okay because his car is already dark enough. If it was lighter color then you shouldnt match paint it.
