Thats because they are all knockoffs... if you look at the name they misspell Mugen its spelled Mugn, its really manufactured by C-Wings. Those are the companies that are putting the real thing out of business by ripping there designs.

Welcome to the world of knock offs! :wave: LOL

Here is some feedback regarding C-Wings/knock off Mugen Style hardtops ->

Even David who has a C-Wing's hardtop said that he would have gone the authentic route if he knew how much of a PITA it was going to be to install his hardtop + window.

Knockoffs may be cheaper.... but.... are much more of a PITA than what you are saving.

The worst part is the fittament. Knock offs do not fit as clean as the real thing. If you want a professional look, you will need t pay the price.

LOL - We shop the 'Straw Markets' in the Bahamas every time we go. My daughter was 'in heaven' when she bought two 'designer' purses for less than $100. I was similarly elated to buy 5 'hand rolled cuban cigars' for under $100. We weren't fooled they were knock offs, but were happy with the purchase just the same.

To each their own I guess.
