this is like a wet dream come true. I didnt think id ever get to see a genuine mugen kit. And I especially never thought anyone would repro it in handlaid fiber. Ill be pinching pennies to get one. Hell i might even sell off my 95 Escort GT to get it. blink.gif

Would you be willing to sell partial kits? Like just the front bumper cover?

Do you have any pics of the brackets and such that attach the front and rear bumpers? I don't think they bolt up liek the stock ones for some reason.

Actually Fanatic, according to my 1984 Motor Trend which featured the Mugen CRX, i quote "All the items bolt on using existing CRX attachment points, meaning you dont need to be a bodywork specialist to get a nice-looking result"

And considering the car they started with was under $7000US new, and the End result cost them around $11000 (included paint, wheels, tires), I think the price for this kit is well worth every penny.

Individual part sales will ultimately be up to Jamie Houseman.

Sorry, I didn't get any shots of the attachment brackets - the front and rear bumper had zinc plated steel brackets molded into the fiberglass.

Funkmaster you should scan that Motor Trend article.

The article ont he Mugen car is very cool though so at the least ill scan it and post it in my image gallery.

Ghost-one, if I had $1300 + shipping laying around, I'd have gtpilot's sik tranny in my possession.

My car is finally getting light. I'm not gonna tack on a bunch of weight, no matter how good it looks. But I would like the Mugen front bumper, and a 1 piece fiberglass version of Mr.D's one piece hood (if somebody ever makes one).

The mold will be around... when I win the lottery I can order one.

I was also wondering how the rear fender pieces attach as well, but that was a direct quote from the magazine and I doubt they made it up.
