Real Mugen Carbon Wing?

Hey,

I was just able to buy this Wing of Ebay.com. Finally it arrived in Germany, I was wondering now. Is this wing a genuine "Mugen Wing" or is this the one from Loki the "Replica"?
What's the best way to mount it on the Del Sol?

Thanks,
King

Silly question but did you not ask these question BEFORE you bought it?

I'm pretty sure Mugen doesn't make hardly anything in Carbon fiber.

If it was sold as a replica how do you think it's genuine? I've never seen a lot, if any, Mugen parts in CF.

Re: Real Mugen Carbon Wing?

Then how do you plan on attaching it? Does your car already have a wing on it? If so use that hardware.

I would take it to a body shop for them to mount it if you are unsure.

I wouldn't. The replica is likely designed to work with an OEM setup or drilling holes in the trunk. Like almost all aftermarket wings.

Mugen is primarily designed to work with OEM components, so a replica should too.

Re: Real Mugen Carbon Wing?

Doesn't really matter what your current wing looks like. The only option to you at this point is to try and use the mounting hardware from the EXISTING wing to mount to the NEW wing.

Linking to a website isn't going to help unless you remove the old wing and take pics of how it attaches and by then you could go ahead and install the new one. You probably could have done it by now.
