if your going to get a "real" mugen body kit, why put fake stuff on after, rota's, and fake seats???????? this is a real question BTW
don't be cheap, and start something and finish it poorly.........

Look at his list of mods. Its entirely full of knock offs. I doubt he cares about quality, just the look. His car will be Mugen Style powered.

And just from the pictures of those seats, the wrap isn't even tight.... which hints at the low quality you'll get elsewhere on them.

look at the seat it self very poorly made, do you see how it isn't even streched tight at all so it will look like total *** in about half a year, they arn't real the company should be sued for copyright infringment, just another ghey looking poorly made crappy knockoff seat.

I have a fake mugen body kit cause i can't see spending $1300 just for teh front bumper when i can get a whole body kit and wing for the price of just the real mugen wing. I just need some kinda raceing seat cause ek seat suck. what other seats could i get for around $400 for the pair? If any one could show me some links or pics of decent seats i would realy appreciate it.

so then everyone that owns the rota slips are cheap because many people say the slips are knockoff's of the spoon SW's?

hmm. . .either way, Im still gonna rock the slipstreams, even if it means people think im cheap. I like the term economical (did I spell that right? )

A strut bar is a strut bar is a strut bar.... Paint it gunmetal or bronze and you have an official JDM strut bar. As long as it doesn't bend(which mine didn't), it does the same thing. Rock the Ebay mods for all their worth while your broke. When you can afford 200 for ONE piece of aluminum to bridge your strut towers, then go for it.

don't listen to everyone sayin 'oh those are cheep knockoffs'. building up your car is probably a hobby just like everyone else here. You don't need to go around and try to impress everyone. Do what you can afford.....the rota C 8's are sick by the way!! i'm ordering mine up soon to. I personally dont give a damn if people call them knockoffs. if they wanna be dumbasses and go spend 400 on ea wheel, just becasue they have a lil mugen logo on the lip, go ahead and be my guest. In the mean time i'll be rollin my rims and usin the extra 1200 bucks i saved and invest in my block... come race me bitch

what seats can u get for $400??? del Sol seats... i didn't read the WHOLE thread so i'm sure someone had to have already said that, but i'm saying it again.

since u asked for opinions on the mugen knock off seats... they're appear to have terrible construction and the wrap is pathetic. do as you wish with your car, but since you asked, that's what i think.

its all good i asked for opinians so i aint gonna get all mad and bent out of shape because some are ragging on them. I just figured i already have the fake mugen things going i should have just gotten the fake seats to match. I just wanted something with some good side support. I figuired i dropped all my money into the motor swap that i just got that a cheap set of seats would hold me in fine.
