Mugen Wing!!!! But what about the third brake light???

Hey guys,

I always loved the way the mugen wing looked on the 4dr sedan, but always ran into the problem of the si trunk holes from the wing (most likely need to by a new one) and the third brake light. Any suggestions for people like me who wants to stay legal and have the mugen wing or for people who just don't want a wing at all on the 4dr si?

If course companys could start taking this into consideration and make us si sedan owners something!

By the way, heres the thread for what the si sedan trunk looks like when you remove the wing!!!
How many holes under the Si Sedan spoiler?

I have been trying to figure out the 3rd brake light issue myself. It's an easy fix on the coupe, but on the sedan it's a bigger problem.
Believe it or not, this problem has kept me from buying an Si Sedan. I own a Si coupe and I need the extra doors, but I think the Si wing on the Si Sedan is uber disgusting. Everytime I see an Si Sedan with the stock wing I get depressed because I want to get the car, but not with that horrible wing.

Thats my thought exactly!!! The only thing that I hated about the si sedan when I bought it was the wing! But for me I went ahead and purchased the sedan because I needed the additional doors. I first wasn't going to get it, but after seeing the mugen sedan with its wing, I said to myself "the wing is fixable " The only problem is the third brake light and a cheap solution for the trunk holes ...

Oh and by the way the white sedan in the picture is not my car, but I believe you can get the authentic wing from Kingsmotorsport.com...

Im also waiting to see if the USDM Mugen wing will be available, since the car was supposed to be out already and it's still not. From the pics, the Mugen wing actually has the 3rd Brake Light built in, just like the Si wing. That would technically kill 2 birds with one stone. It probably uses the same holes in the center, since the wiring for the 3rd Brake Light and trunk release are near there on the stock Si. If indeed the Mugen wing will be available, that would really push me to get an Si Sedan.

see thats what I wanted to do, but with the push back of the mugen si sedan probably to this fall and not even being sure if the part will be for sale, i wanted to see if there was going to be any other options. But like you guys said, that would be the cheapest way of going about all this...

Any other advice or comments? Or maybe a company could make a us mugen si sedan replica or something like it? *crossing fingers*
