No they haven't.
Someone made a BS thread a while back saying that Mugen ran FRP for race teams who are always crashing their cars but it's not true.

Email speedstar. IIRC a couple of their customer's cars sported these.

edit: that's speedstar in Canada

Mugen did in fact make an FRP hood, not for sale to the public, however. King Motorsports had one at one point, and Speedstar acquired a couple. The Acid Racing S2000 utilized an FRP Mugen hood as well.

It looks exactly like the Carbon Fiber Mugen hood except it is made out of Fiberglass. It comes complete with rain channels just like the CF version. Just imagine a CF version in white; that's what the FRP looks like pre-paint.
