With a bit of research I believe this came out of Jenson Buttons s2000 which Honda gave to him with all the mugen extra's. I think it only ran a hard top so this might of been modified for extra heigh as you can see mine is slightly taller than the normal mugen! Either way a hammer is coming out!! Lol

What are those tabs you have on the bottom of your top bar? Looks legit besides those ears. I didn't know of any fake mugens?
Here is the best shot i can find of mine.

I put those tabs before I had it painted, they are for a full size plastic wind deflector.

I have sorted it with some 5mm spacers under the main bar mounting plate on the back two bolts, this has just angled it forwards slightly. No hammer needed......what a shame!!!

Oh, yeah! I see it is actually very different than the cusco. I don't know where I got the idea they were similar?

The seats are amazing, I had recaro pole positions and these are a different level in quality and support. Urge supply these to the USA but as I'm in the Uk I brought them direct. The nice thing is you can have any kind of custom stitching done to them. I did have to make custom side mountings for them as they aren't a standard fit but urge designs has done this for his as well. You will notice in the pics the passenger seat is higher as my girlfriend hated the car as the seats are so low she couldn't see over the dash lol, this shows how low you sit!! She is 5'4" so not dwarf!! Just for reference they are the Tillett B5 with cushions.
