The INGS front lip looks like the Mugen lip but for the 02-04 style bumper.

indeed it does,,, i am actually suprised with the poll results thus far...i kept it open for awhile so i could get a better idea of what was liked....

sad thing is i could get the OE replacement with the ings lip for around 500....the c-west front is 570+shipping from japan :eek: and the used mugen is 800, still more expensive than the two other options and i have to get it resprayed in ssm

Not that much of a Mugen fan for the Dc5. It reminds me of the 04-05 EM2's.

But that INGS sure do look damn sexy.
