does anyone know if theres a big difference between the official mugen visors and jdm mugen style? just trying to save a few bucks

Yeah, I'm thinking the same thing. I'm all about getting the real deal, but this case, I just can't justify spending 185 + tax on plastic parts that I could get for cheaper.

just go with the cheaper 1s and put your money elsewhere in the car and dont do the 1s that fit in the jams the throw the lines off on the car and dont look good . the 3m tape 1s look so much cleaner..

with the actual shape and aerodynamic construction of the window visors, the jdm style window visors when compared to the mugen window visors have more wind resistance thus having a slightly more noticeable wind noise, almost like when you put your hand outside the car while your driving and have your palm open against the wind rather then having your hand straight out with your palm facing the floor. hope that this helps

I have mugen style visor on my sedan and I like it. It does not look cheap at all and no one except those who really knows mugen stuffs will ever notice if it's real or not. Wind resistance wise, it does not really matter, imo...

thats true. to the average run-of-the-mill person, a mugen window visor may look exactly like a jdm style window visor and choose to go with the jdm style one mainly because of price. imo, your paying for name recognition that only you will know. to some its worth it, to others, they can care less and to me, it's how much i have saved in my wallet.

Replica's have double sided 3m tape and OEM have clips to fully secure them from flying off. plus if they try to steal them they will end up breaking them cuz of the clips. mainly up to the buyers price range. and if you want to say "its OEM".
