Default Mugen "Professional" front end

I called King Motorsports and the rep there told me how labor intensive replacing the front end is, anyone attempt this on their own, or know of a DIY video I can find? This would be for a US spec Fit. Thanks in advance!

j's racing offers the swap for about $2100 , but honestly its not worth it, lots of kit manufacturers are about to pump out tons on body kits and the popular N1 kit is being made for the USDM kit

and to answer the question , yes its very labor intensive if you dont know what your doing, brackets have to be changed and wirring adjusted

its def not a "bolt-on" job

All viable points, thanks for the info guys. Although I am a big fan of all things Mugen, perhaps the N1 front end would look ok with the Mugen side skirts and rear, maybe.

its hard for us del sol dudes to find a real mugen bumper because the del sol is discontinued, im sure you could find real mugen bumpers & parts for newer hondas a lot easier compared to older mugen parts.

Anyone have experience with, or seen this body kit from Extreme Dimensions?

Looks pretty sweet, and appears to be made for the north american fit.
