Default Mugen painted ht to cf mugen ht?

I have a mugen authentic hardtop colour matched to my car and I can get my hands on a chaser aero carbon mugen hardtop from a local friend..

Stay as is, or go carbon?

Don't do it. Terrible resale and poor fitment with the chaser aero stuff. a authentic hardtop is easily gonna sell for $3k

Ahhh fak, he said the fit is good and it looks good. I've read horrible stories about customer service, but that's about it.

If you can sell your authentic mugen for $3k, you can get a CF VIS for $2k with hardware and keep $1k for other stuff...

just dont degrade to chaser

NOT TRUE!
Chaser only has terrible fitment on their frp tops. Everyone I know who has one of their carbon tops is VERY happy with the fitment, especially considering the price difference. I have the double sided carbon top and it fits like an absolute glove. I had the privilege last week of taking a look at a couple different authentic Mugen tops and their fitment was no different than mine. The ONLY place that I could even see that was slightly imperfect was in the middle below the window. And it is only millimeters more in gap between the top and trunk. Even my brother was amazed at how little the difference was in fitment.

SO DONT LISTEN TO ALL THE HATE ON CHASER TOPS...... just the frp ones.

If you want pics, I will post them up all day long.
But, I will say, if you make that trade, there better be some cash coming your way too.
