Mugen parts are expensive yes, but they're extremely high quality. The Mugen CF Hardtop for the S is around $6k but it's unmatched in quality and fitment. On top of that, it's real carbon, not the crap that Vis, Siebon and other companies sell. That is the only piece I would buy from Mugen. The rest would either come from Spoon, ASM, Amuse, or J's Racing as it's just my personal preference.
I guess it's the same cliche, that you get what you pay for. That's not to say that these items can't have problems because anything can go wrong with this stuff. Just the nature of the beast.
What I'd really love to see from TRD is/are carbon pieces for this car such as hoods, doors, mirrrors, etc. That would be pretty awesome imo.
