typical troll response 
if money isn't a factor im not sure why you're posting to ask where you can find it cheaper than retail, you already know king sells it.
oh well. good luck with that.

medicalstudent, the top looks great, but i must paint if i get the cf. too much of a contrast for me.

I'm curious if there are any major differences between the CF and fiberlgass versions. Aside from the obvious, materials and weight(10lbs according to King). Looks like fiberglass will need to get painted.
Does anyone have a fiberglass mugen top? Any comments on fit/finish, feel?
I really dig the look, but $6000 for a CF hardtop?!

Listen Mugen Hardtop is hot, but OEM is just as nice for price and BTW who the hell wants to pay $6000 for something that is a variant of the OEM Hardtop but also almost two times the price... Someone go buy a turbo or a supercharger instead of wasting it on something that you always have to pay for name.... Not saying Mugen is bad just saying they can rape the consumers anyway way they want they are unique I know... Personally get the OEM Hardtop and buy $3000 worth of mods ENJOY! Not hating but man $6000 you guys are true ballers...

Why can't some of you guys get over this can't justify $6K for a hardtop thing? Especially in my thread when I clearly stated money is a non-factor. I don't have to justify $6K or OEM + $1K pricing for a Mugen CF or fiberglass top.
OEM is good for the masses. It comes painted. It's made by Honda. Anyone can go out and get one very easily.
I want the Mugen top for the looks, brand name, and because I can do it and I want it.
Medicalstudent, I totally feel ya on the CF. I'm sure if I saw it in person, I'd have a hard time undoing any of the awesome work Mugen has done to clearcoat that baby.

I wouldn't want to pay $6k either, that's why I got mine used which helps tremendously. I also have the OEM hardtop. Love its looks and utility. Would keep both, but I can't justify doing that (unless Rita decides to make minced meat out of either HT).
