Purchased this replica Mugen wing from another H-T member. It was an awesome deal I just couldn't pass it up. Unfortunately, I'm having some troubles mounting it. It seems the aluminum wing is too long.

I have the option of cutting it but I wanted to make sure I mounted it correctly. Opinions and suggestions welcome.

 

That's why I have a hard time buying "replicas." Was it off of a DC2?

 

Have you tried putting the pieces of the wing together and then mounting it on the car?

and a re-paint?

 

no offense but replicas suck

Good luck with it

 

Thats what happens when you by replica

 

i wonder if the person you bought it from found that out also and had to get rid of it because of the same reason you're having

 

yup...replicas usually suck like that.

that would be some SHADY S**T

 

That's the same thing that happened to me when I tried to put on a "REAL" mugen wing.. I never successfully mounted it.

Then a few years later I picked up an even better "mugen" wing. White rocket, you know what I'm talking about . This one fits like a glove

 

you gay

Good thing, that is not the case.

And Alex, Ed summed up your wing perfectly

 

Paint the ends yellow, leave the top piece off and you have yourself some uprights

 

can't provide much insight to a Mugen replica...

but the authentic Mugen wing will fit together properly even with your eyes closed.....

Big Phat R will attest to that as would N1-R and zygspeed here..... as I ordered both wings at the same time.....

I'd sell it and get a real one...... just my 2 hk pennies....

 

not for nothing.. but that wign is so ugly... those mugen wings are just hideous

Off topic ... but so are most of your comments of late!

Back on topic ... get an authentic Mugen wing.
BTW --- I may be in the market for a real one again, shortly.

PS Looks like it might mount up ok if you put it together FIRST and then mount it to the car!

I'll go and try that right now. Thanx

 

Looks like it really should fit (if put together off the car and then tightened up during installation on the car).

If not ... let me know how much is enough.
I broke my last one ....

 

lol err.. replica =

Went to the body shop and the primer was still a tad bit damp so it'll have to wait until tomorrow. I'll definately try to make it fit before I cut.

I most certainly do know what your talkin' about. I've actually gone a couple of days without thinking about your spoiler Obsession is a ****
