Default New Mugen wheel design etc

I have gathered that Mugen isn't very popular among UK owners, but I still want to provide this link for the few afficionados (Steven M, Tango Man?) that's out there.

http://www.mugen-power.com/street/s2000/

As you can se Mugen has finally released a succsesor to the discontinued MF10 Wheel. There are some other new stuff as well (ignition coil cover, new seat design etc). Enyoy!

TBH, I prefer the old wheels that the 'Jock' has, just dont like the Scooby colour (gold).

Cool link though

Contemplating one of the bonnets too, the vents, not the CF bling.

Nick isn't going to want those new Mugen wheels, +52 and +59 offsets? It'll handle like a pig!

I agree that Mugen and other upmarket JDM stuff is very expensive.

A tip is to order through http://www.takakaira.co.jp/

What they do is they state a lower invoice value in the shipping documents "to cushion the customer from paying excessive import tax on autoparts."

So far it has worked brilliantly and has saved me quite a lot of money

I know it's a bit immoral but what can you do?

I have ordered from them on five diffrent occasions and so far they have not fumbled once.
