is that a pic of Oz Civic Type R or is it the American one?
Nice thanks for the pics. This thread is way too long now.
Still fingers crossed we'll get these.

1. That's a replica kit which is prob why not clip on so easily? I'm basing this on the missing Mugen badge off the rear wing on the right. There are A LOT of Mugen Civics here and I'd say around 50:50 are original:replica.
2. Just FYI, Civic FD1 Mugen Kit (official, painted, shipped from Japan) incl. front underspoiler, rear under, side skirts and rear wing costs $3800sgd + approx $700sgd shipping to Australia; which equates to $4500sgd (according to XE.com, around $3711aud).
3. The gauges look stupid IMO. All he's done is duplicate everything else; and IIRC, there's no manual model offered here in Singapore so why bother with all the guages? Also note that (upon closer inspection), that's the 2.0L with paddle shift.
gauges are prob oil temp, oil pressure, RPM,
looks pretti good imo
where did you guys get your replica grilles from? ebay? and is the quality any good?
ordered from SG, quality just fine, i will take photo once i done it
hey Jo_e, some Q's about install the front grill, do i need some double tape to stable the grill's bottom? or just stable by original upper clips?Quote:

If you realli realli love the grille and never wanna replace it ever agen and want to stabilize it permanently use acralite or how ever you spell it.Quote:

PS. SG *** Styling parts...not recommended. Their goods are somewat dodgy imo. You will most likely find a huge gap between the bonnet and the grille and that the grille will not be a perfect fit. Tell us how it goes. =]
Me, Jace and it seems Dyljoy got it from SG car styling...but refer to above post, really not recommended. I've had sh*tloads of problems with mine. Ebay there is a guy from taiwan selling for around the same price. Type "06 civic" and it should be there. Never tried it but could be better?Quote:
