Is there any pics of how the SS mugen and the CR wing are mounted?
I've installed both, and they're both extremely easy. The Mugen SS wing uses one hole on each side of the trunk lid. The same holes that are used to mount the OEM lip spoiler. The holes are already visible on the underside from the factory, you just have to drill them out. As for the CR wing, I strongly recommend getting the OEM CR trunk lid with it. Makes install VERY easy... no lining things up, drilling, etc. Just have to get it painted. And the CR trunk lid has a bunch of extra stuff installed on it that the base model doesn't (bracing, studs for the side-support brackets, etc.). You can Google image my screen name, and a bunch of pics should come up of my old SS wing and the most recent CR wing I installed earlier this year.

The CR was only offered in Berlina Black, Grand Prix White, Apex Blue Pearl, and Rio Yellow Pearl. So when you order one, those will be the only colors avialable. If you do end up getting the OEM CR trunk lid, that will also need paint. It comes in a primered black finish from Honda.
The SS wing comes from Mugen "almost" ready for paint. It's just a bare fiberglass, but just needs some priming, good sanding, and paint. I recently purchased the last Mugen SS wing that Kingmotorsports had, but they can be ordered.

Heres my APR GTC200 with risers.. I leave the wing on since I don't DD my car anymore. It doesn't draw that much attention, I just get the wtf looks maybe once a month or so If I take it out on a Saturday morning lol. Paid only $700 for this one used with the risers.. Not sure how much they go for new, I would imagine the $900 range?
Also if you plan on getting a CR wing do it right and brace your trunk. Whether you track the car or not the wing will do its job and force your trunk down and without the stopper pieces and the bracing your rear bumper will get pushed down in the process. With my wing I didn't need any bracing because it mounts to the edges of the trunk where the stronger points are. CR mounts more in the middle..
