this wasnt easy to find in Bangers and considering its already in Sydney I;ve saved some buyer the worry about freight from o/s.

so the grill is up for sale on ebay at

this is probably against forum rules, but this points system doesnt allow me to post it in the sales sections.

thanks for the past advice but 31k+ for a Honda Sport was a little too much to digest.

You paid $100+ for a replica CF grille?! It looks alright but wouldn't pay $150aud for it mate. The picture doesn't make it clear whether it's actually replacing the huge piece of chrome which comes with the Civic, or if it just sits/wraps on top.

Good luck selling it. It looks nice but I'm cheap!

Yeah, I'd be interested but $150 AUD is a bit much. PM if you're willing to drop the price a bit.

If you check the website and convert the thai baht to aussie dollars it equals $150. Those places sell cheaper versions that have a carbon fibre weave sticker. This is real carbon fibre with layers of gloss.

The grill replaces the existing grill and has mounting holes etc. You stick your own chrome/red Honda badge back in place and happy days.

LOL I guess there is a quality difference between different replicas :) Although not quite sure how you could trust one to be genuine CF...

I noticed it's pickup only anyway, so :(

Big difference in quality.

I guess I cant be 100% sure but my wife grew up a few streets away from MBK, Bangkok, (ie speaks the language) and the guys at R Style have another shop outside of MBK. They dont need to deal with tourists so have little reason to lie.
Maybe it isnt real CF but the weave has depth and looked good enough to buy on the spot.

I was surprised at the price of things compared to the average thai wage. It must get expensive. But if anyone knows thais they love their cars..

A shot of the back to clear things up.

ROFLMAO I haven't been to MBK in SEVEN years. Last time I went there I was in high school and was looking for Gameboy games for my (new at the time) Gameboy Pocket! How times have changed.

just a random question
if im interested in getting a mugen replica kit
what material should i look for in it's build?
should the spoiler be different (cant be too heavy right?) material?
