Well i guess Mugen has bad taste then. Its not the real Mugen hood but a pretty good replica.

Car is looking nice

Yikes, what's with the fake ITR wing on the SSM?

just because its a Mugen style, doesnt mean its nice looking..

Both cars need quite a bit of work before anything is really tied in and looks nice, imo.

 

[Genuine Rolla]

mugen or not....that hood is ugly.

not digging the wheels either....doesn't seem to go with the car.

That isnt a fake ITR wing, it is straight from Acura. Same wing that comes on the A Spec RSX.

i agree the wheels dont look that great in the pic but in the sun they actually matched the paint really well.

Thanks for the comments, good and bad. guess its a good thing i dont have it anymore, apparently i was headed down the wrong path with it. : )

Nope, fake, knockoff, imitation.

Real A-Spec/Type-R wing as the car is an A-Spec 2 minutes from my house.

Sides are higher/straighter, and they have tops at the top, the crossbar doesnt sit flush with the tops of the sides like the one your pic...therefore, knockoff/imitation/fake/replica.

no... that above is the RSX wing. not feeling the fake mugen hood or angled exhaust or wheels.

EDIT: Im 1 minute late. lol.

what the hell is an aspec?

 

[SweetNuts]

AH I SEE!!!! stupid b***h lied to me. LOL

 

[96 DX Hatch]

what the hell is an aspec?

Came out in '04, added Type-R lip kit except the rears are different (pic 2 & 3 above are AS, pic 1 is ITR), changed suspension, added the ITR wing, and some minor titanium interior trim was added along with the wheels in my pics. The main difference is the suspension.

I've tried convincing my friend to keep the A-Spec rear cause I like the fins, but oh well. Car looks a ton different now than in those pics

AH I SEE!!!! stupid bicth lied to me. LOL

 

[SweetNuts]

what the hell is an aspec?

Came with upgraded suspension and a wing/lip kit.

 

[SweetNuts]

Man i am getting tore up lol. I LOVED MY ANGLE EXHAUST!!!!! it was hks hi-power and one of the best sounding i have ever heard IMO!!!

 

[cgpEJ6]

I don't think it looked bad

As for your hood, I can see why not many like it...right now.

But that's also partly because you have nothing else to compliment it. Now if you were to make the outside aggressive (mugen body kit *cough cough*) it would flow better, maybe even painted partially too.

Just an idea

 

[BlackHopeDC5]

o ok..


so really the aspec isnt all that special... I thought maybe it some engine upgrades or somthing

The phrase A-spec seems to be marketing then

Yeah i agree with you. I was gonna go with the Mugen kit and get the real hood but the car is gone now. At least i know next time not to get one part that doesnt really match the rest! Thanks for the input.
