I saw a picture of a Mugen wing and need more info. It is not the one currently available from King. It is shorter than the stock ITR wing and looks very flat, possibly carbon fiber. Any info would be appreciated.

Thanks
Mattj

 

only thing i can tell you is that most of the wings/bumpers/Aero stuff is fiberglass.
try the King website.

shorter and flat like a gsr wing?

yshi - whose having a hard time picturing this

 

Yosh, we both are. He might be talkin about the first gen Wing for the DC2. Whatcha think?

 

Its is nothing that is avaible from King at this time. Not as short as the GSR wing. It might be the first gen wing but I haven't seen one before. I saw it in Modified Magazine on a green right hand drive integra owned by a Greg Leone of Pro Drive Competition Products.

i can only think of 2 wings from Mugen. The current one thats adjustable and the 1st gen one that comes straight down like the stock one to the back side of the hatch.

 

matt:
there was first gen mugen wing. Looked similar to the stock wing 'cept it flipped up on the rear, top edge of it. Also has Mugen badge on both sides. Could it be that one?

If so, I can get a pic of it later today.

 

Way to go Yosh!

 

Yes it has Mugen badges on both side. If you could post a pic when you find it later. O.K. now the hard part. How do I get my hand on one?

Saved Yoshi some time


Matt if this is the one it will be tough to find as its been discontinued for almost a year now. If it is not this one I'm guessing its either a Fake Mugen wing or maybe one from another car model that they fit onto the integra.

 

the current mugen wing adds a little more downforce, but not much. The big thing is that the sides of it help stablize for turns and braking. I have felt a noticablly stable difference on the butt dyno when going through a corner. Oh and I saw a flow chart.

The wing isnt shorter than the current ITR wing or if it is, its not that much. The Mugen logo is stamped on the side. Th middle is alum-lite or an aluminum piece and the sides are standard moldings. 3 way adjustable for different downforce levels.

 

thanks for the pic mike. How ironic, friend w/ PY ITR and mugen wing in question is also named Mike He's a real Honda tech

His wing was beat up pretty bad, his body shop did a great job of fixing and painting it.

yshi - who dropped off some stuff to have painted at the same body shop last night

 

Sorry guys it wasn't either wing. It was shorter than both maybe 5 inches off of the deck lid, I'll try to scan a picture.

 

Unless it was the Mugen factory race wing, which you cant buy uinless you have connections, it wasnt a Mugen wing.

 

the othe mugen wing was for G2 tegs

this one is fake but looks similar

 

Matt,

You mentioned the Mugen wing on Greg from Prodrive's car.

The wing on his car is an authentic Mugen item, made for a Civic sedan and modified for use on an Integra.



Reid - who deserves a scooby snack...

 

ah, that one!!

throws a bone towards reid

 

I Wonder if it would bolt directly up or if the holes are off a little, The SI and ITR Wing look similar Anyone ever try switching them between cars to see?

 

not bad. i like it.

 

this is the one thats on gregs car and IMO looks like ****

 

I call these types of wings "snow holders" cause in the winter that is what they do, hold snow

They make it difficult to clean the snow off the trunk of your kaa.

 

I have this wing on my integra, i got it from japan about 2 years ago, but as far as i know WW make a replica of it, their wing has the two slits either side also where the mugen badges stick. Its the exact same height as a stock ITR wing, but as was correctly pointed out the mugen one was discontinued about a year or so back.

Yes the civic one.

I final past the E-tard test and scanned and posted a picture:

That Mugen wing has taken over the oem wing on the 6th gen civics now!!

 

If you say that the wing is carbon fibre, then it is not authentic. I had one 3 years ago on my DC Integra, ended up selling the wing because I was too lazy to install it.

It retailed for around $200 back then.
