hah Thanks Jared. but i'm sure I won't miss it. i've had it for the past 4 years and almost every day i've walked out to my car and wished it were a mugen top. functionality wise, the OEM trumps the mugen (visibility and noise)...even quality wise, with the nice interior liner, aluminum build, but the mugen has the look i've always wanted. The OEM top is just not sporty enough for me! Since the S is only my weekend car now, i'm able to sacrifice functionality/quality for looks! i'm very happy with it!

Yeah, search convex blue side mirrors. They are amazing, and eliminate the blind spot! No need to do the "JDM" or "Spoon" ones....

Edit: I got the link for you..... HERE!

Good luck.... sick build!

The car looks great with the Mugen top I have always thought the Mugen top flows better with the ASM front (especially with the addition of the front lip) and the OEM top flow better with the OEM and Amuse fronts.
