Default Quick poll C West front or Mugen Lip

Alright honda-tech, what do you think? Keep in mind the C west bumper would be a replica. Also, the mugen lip would be a replica. Im so torn the prices would basically be the same, because with the mugen lip i would get a new grill and therefore the cost of the grill and lip would approx. = the cost of the bumper. what do you think?

^^ I don't know. I think both the Mugen Lip and the CWest is about the same (common wise).
CWest.

it really depends on the replica bumper quality i would guess. if you just get the replica lip, even if it's shitty quality, at least your bumper quality will still be good

if that doesnt matter, go with c-west

I can replace a mugen replica lip for 60 dollars if I hit a driveway hard with it...

If I own my c west front end on a driveway it will cost me 600 dollars to fix

let me weigh out my options here... hrmn........
... still thinking about it.....

oh yeah thats right I will stick with the mugen lip. I dont like to drive slow or go over speedbumps at 0 mph diagnally.

I was thinking the same about the quality issue. I have already cracked a mugen replica, but i was pissed and driving like an *******. I am curious about the fitment and quality of the C West replica. Anyone have any pics. Basically right now that is the only thing holding me back. My bumper has quite a few chips in it from normal wear and tear, so the new bumper wouldnt be a bad idea.

I don't know about replica CWest, but i've seen a few REAL CWest in person. Thing fits like a glove! If your a balla like dat, try and find the real CWest, but do what you gotta do replica or not
