Mugen V.S. HFP Front lip

blck06si · 01-28-2007, 01:51 AM

I'm torn between the Mugen lip and the HFP lip. I really like both. I was planning on doing the HFP sides and maybe the rear w/ the mugen front but dont know what it would look like.

Then i thought maybe the mugen rear,front and the hfp sides wouldn't look bad.

anyways post your thought... and pics if any... thanks

I went with the mugen front because I wanted my civic to look a little different then 90% of civics driving around with the HFP kit. (FYI) The mugen sides should be on the market this month. the side skirt is a replica of the 4door mugen side skirts

HFP > Mugen "replica"

tennisfan16 · 01-28-2007, 01:35 PM

i prefer the hfp more, i can only assume you are talking about a sedan though, cuz i dont think mugen made an authenitic one for the coupes. like skittles said.

HFP is the way to go, I want it but way too expensive, cost me 1800CAD from Canada that's bullshit.

HFP kit is ugly the mugen looks good from the front but the sides i dont like at all. I would choose mugen over HFP.

blck06si · 01-31-2007, 10:18 PM

good luck to ya....I like the HFP front lip better. The mugen looks force fitted IMO, especially with the hfp skirts.

their you go...thats my opinion

See, that profile picture was exactly what I needed. The front Mugen-style lip looks disproportionately lower than the back, even though you have the HFP kit on back.

It looks... incomplete, like an afterthought.

subee13 · 02-12-2007, 08:32 PM

How much are you guys paying for the HFP kit? I can not find it anywhere cheap.

word. it hangs much lower than the hfp front. and its hell to drive with if ur lowered.

I think the mugen lip looks like a cheap add on... I'm not trying to bash anyone that likes it or has it.. but it does not flow with the cosmetic lines of the car.. after all it is a "replica".. its like asking if you like the type R wheels.. or some cheap volk knock-offs :]
