Default Best place to buy REAL Mugen parts?

I looked all over Yahoo for a website and the only one I found with real parts was all in Jap. I know there's an easier way to go about ordering a Mugen lip. Thanks.

I know they got in trouble for hiding money. I think Honda had something to do with it as well. Not too sure about the REAL story though.

on the mugen site in Japan:

July 3, 2003


Dear Sirs:


1.
To our sincere regret, we were subjected to the investigation by the Saitama District Public Procurator's Office on July 1, 2003 on the suspicion of violation of the Corporation Tax Law. In addition, our Representative Director, Hirotoshi Honda, as well as a former auditor, Norio Hirokawa were arrested.

The nature of suspicion was the tax evasion amounting to more than two billion yen arising out from funds transfers through unlawful accounting procedures which were led principally by the former auditor, Norio Hirokawa.



2.
We wish to deeply express our regret for inviting such situation, and apologize all motor fans and enthusiasts who have been supporting our company, for causing worry and unpleasant feelings.

3.
The tax evasion suspicion of this case was committed as a part of misappropriation of assets by the former auditor Norio Hirokawa we accused of embezzlement in conduct of business, etc. Representative Director, Hirotoshi Honda, explained repeatedly during the course of investigation since July 2001, that the violation of Corporation Tax Law was committed as a part of assets embezzlement by Norio Hirokawa and that Hirotoshi Honda has never conspired with or permitted the act of Norio Hirokawa with the intention to recognize his tax evasion act. We fully cooperated with the investigation by the authority, but to our regret, we have not been able to obtain the understanding of authority. So we are intending to prove the innocence of Hirotoshi Honda with our maximum efforts.

4. Representative Director, Hirotoshi Honda, accepted the seriousness of this case as the chief executive officer and he intends to clarify the management responsibility including his course of action. We have been advancing drastic improvement including the measures to prevent recurrence of a case in this nature and intend to restart as "New Mugen".

5. We intend to maintain fullest extent our organization in order not to cause any troubles as a result of the case, in services and supply of parts to our customers with the cooperation of our major customer, Messrs. Honda Motor Co., Ltd. Also, all of our officers and employees firmly believe the innocence of Hirotoshi Honda. We, therefore, sincerely request all our customers ever lasting support and understanding in this regard.





Sincerely,



Mugen Co., Ltd.
