I would never spend money on Mugen crap. Their parts may perform well, but for the price, I'd like it to not look like crap (I'm not talking about chromed out show parts... just not crappy looking). And I definitely wouldn't pay the same price for Mugen parts that stuff like Hamman, ACSchnitzer and Brabus goes for.

i dont know what the car looks like, but im guessing those "rotas" you are talking about are mugen sw-388s. the wheel design that the rota slipstream is a knock off of.

Actuall Rota Slips are knockoffs of spoons. Rota makes 3 mugen knockoffs, the circuit 8, the circuit 10 and one other I forgot it's name. The 8 and 10 are off the MF8 and MF10.

whatever happened to the days when people modded cars for purpose? Purpose built. You know the ones, with the gutted interiors doing 12/13 second passes, or the ones with the 15" light weight wheels, and meticulously tuned suspensions running autocross?

All we get these days are kids doing pointless things to the cars and putting stickers and emblems all over it.

"Hey d00dz I'm gonna build a JDM civic and rock Tony the Tiger stickerz on the side dawg. That would be hawt."

Oh... my... fu(king.... god. You have gotta be kidding me.
Rota has gone so far as to make people unaware that there exists an original to the knockoff?
And to answer your question nookie.....
Those of us with the purpose built cars, don't have ideas like this, and our cars look stock.

My suggestions:
1. White or black Es2 or Es1 (has to be a sedan because the 06 sedan vics has already mugen parts for it)...more jdm than a coupe (its jus me)
2. K20a2 swap
3.changing the dx,lx,ex badge to a mugen emblem
4. bronze rotas
5. mugen gas cap
6. mugen front lip
7.nos sticker with random switch install
8.rear wing for down force.
