The rods are a little ridiculous for a street car.

I haven't installed my rods yet. Thinking about painting them black or even not installing them at all. I think you do have to install them.

The Mugen version does not look functional at all.

you only have to install them if you're planning on driving at speeds in excess of 100mph...they're for stability at high speeds. I put mine in since i track the car I'd leave them off if i didn't

dude you need to send me pics of your ride
Yeah I do track it regularily so I guess I better install them.
I find myself over 110 often too

Haven't done a photoshoot yet...

Just one thing to keep in mind. A lot of times "Look" and "Function" don't go together. Like CR, many of aerodynamics received flames in terms of the look, but they DO FUNCTION very well and as tested by Honda number of times. With the quality and reputation of Mugen, and the fact that they have tested the splitter, I'd say Mugen one is much of a quality piece. Don't think there is much point in this thread anymore. Buy the one you can afford. One costs twice the other.
