Mugen Version 1 intake is dry carbon
Mugen Version 2 intake is dry carbon with a clear coat
Actually, I have the Version 2 and there's no clearcoat. I had both the Version 1 and Version 2 at one point but decided to keep the V2. Both of mine were dry carbon with no clearcoat and you're right, all the new V2's I've seen have a clearcoat. I think I might just have one of the first V2's that were made. I did buy it about 3 years ago.
Ive seen Chris' J's hood in person it is in fact nicer than the 2 mugen hoods I have seen. Why can't Mugen use 1 sheet of CF for their hood? Im not gonna pay 2600 and have a big line through the middle of my hood where the 2 sheets match up.
And, you dont need to spend $2600 on a supposed dry carbon hood to be able to stand on it. Took this pic myself, no damage to the hood.
I totally agreed with you. Many ppl thought the J's hood was "DRY Carbon" made so I just wanted to clarify. I understand the process of dry carbon and I love it.
Most of the after market hoods used the Mugen hood as a template to develop their own like Spoon, ASM, First molding.......copies could be better but the same time it could be worst.
Hallo Ben,
I wanna order some speical paints to paint some big @ss Advan logos on all 4 rubbers. I overpaid for these tires and I am very pissed. Although these tires served me well on the track, I am so afraid that people wont recognize they are Advan Neova's u know.
I am also interested in the used ARC dual exhaust your selling, I wanna be the FIRST one in the North America to have it, so I can accuse ppl for copying my style for fun in the later days hehe
With my new engine dressing components from J's, I am fairly confident my car will get more attention than yours in the car shows even after you put on your Mugen CF HT which is not even dry CF (I am sure if J's does decide to make one, it will look hella dry)
I am so JDM I only sleep on the right side of the bed, I know everything about JDM so dont EVER question my taste man. I just want to point out Power is nothing without bling. From now on I am not even gonna drive my car hard, I am gonna keep it hella clean for show purpose, as long as my car looks mean, I will be recognized as a hardcore JDM speicialist u know
Mugen no good la, J's the fastest ar, I am gonna switch all my shits to J's soon, I am a baller like that....and I am gonna laugh at all ya Mugen fools for overpaying for less bling products. (see i learnt some cantonese too)
I am spreading mad hates cuz I got rejected by the AJ crew for driving way too slow, I am heading to the gym to release sum negative energy now.

the earlier V2's were not clearcoated, I bought mine approx 3 yrs ago and its not clearcoated.

God damn you, I thought you had a PHD....Player's Hater Degree.
I'm not as bling as you, I could only afford a small little twin bed and if I slept on one side, I'd fall off the bed. Uh, why do you want to buy my old exhaust Rich????? J's DOES have a CF HT, called MUGEN~!!!!!
And WHY do you have to copy me AGAIN and switch ALL your stuff to J's huh??????
Wow Chris only 5 kits????
There's already 4 kits I know in Canada , or was that 5??
I'll have to ask Ben again.
