IMO the CTR wing is very very very similar to the Mugen wing in look. Might as well go Mugen since it's designed to be fitted to the Civic FD rather than the replica CTR which was more of an afterthought.
^ Correct. That's why alot of our cars in M'sia are 2nd hand... and also leads to more and more problems ><
On a sidenote, I was thrashing our Waja... managed to top it out at 183km/h. Not bad for a 1.6L on the NS h/w =] Only cars which overtook me were a Fairlady, a CLS350 (and *gasp* a Camry 2.0L)... all Singaporean plates.
One of my favourite places on earth is the NSHW as there's "no speed limit" . Before studying in melbourne used to head up to sunway workshops or sepang occasionally.
Didn't get a chance to buy much Only got an aftermarket horn and typhoon intake for myself. Bought an OEM Type-R badge for a friend.

LOL I miss it too. It was a good drive from Singapore to Sepang for forum meetups- I've got a bunch of photos from my trip last last year to Sepang at http://picasaweb.google.com/jace.88 if you're interested.
that photo is for our Civic FD. It is a replica CTR wing made to fit our car.
Replicas first priority is to match the look of the real thing- the fit and finish/build quality/aerodynamics are all secondary concerns.
After using various replica and genuine components- I can definitely see a major difference. May not be noticeable at first; but once you've had the parts on the car for a while you can start to see the replica parts deteriorate.
originals will fail too. My mate drives a calais. Original spoiler. Already can see it start to wear out. Friend has an integra with a replica kit. Not quite sure the exact year (possibly late 90s as im not familiar with that model), replica kit looks good as new. So it just depends on where the kit was made. Not all replica kits will fail.
So far i have front grille and spoiler as replicas. grille ive had for about 1 year. Still looks the mint. Spoiler only a few months. So maybe ill see if its any good in 3+ years time.
