That's 100% fake. Real Mugen bars aren't hinged pieces of **** with a sticker on them.

 

definetly fake. take pics down ASAP and dont let any mugen guys see it.

 

Real Mugen is one piece

 

Its all too common for sweat shops to make crap fake parts. But a strut bar? As long as all looks good and you get it for cheap. Who cares. But if your a geniune JDM guy... Yeah its fake.

The authentic Mugen bar will outperform that POS hands down. The Mugen is one-piece aircraft grade steel. That's cheap aluminum alloy with hinged mounting points.

 

why does everyone think aircraft grade is so supperior? I worked on planes and there is nothing special about their steel. Trust me.

I'd like to see an ebay bar with a yield tensile strength of 435 MPa

 

if thats a real mugen then i hate to see what a ebay one looks like

 

thats hella fake man

 

thanks a lot guys!!!

thread can be closed...

 

the first gen mugen doesnt have welded ends but hinged piece like this fake one... although it is missing the shock tower extra mount the first gen offers, it will still perform better then the stock IRE piece probably.. if its cheap buy it i guess and paint those red ends black cuz they look like ***
