06 mugen is too common and actually does not go very well with the 09 bumper. yes, I will be changing the rim as well - choice between white or polished metal.. and preferably in 17" (but only after I have installed a body kit) Quote:
You forgot one option which looks BEST in my honest opinion. The Type-R is the next best. Type RR is too loud for my liking. Mugen is what I have on my car and simply love the way it looks. Some pics attached

The mugen kit on your car looks very very hot, no doubt!  .. But I wanted to try something new. I already have the actual Type R original kits with my dealer. So, if I can't get hold of the RR kit, would possibly fall back to Type R. BTW, I now remembered that I had seen your car (or a similar car) in Safdarjung Enclave 3-4 months back.. I was driving a SX4 then... Quote:

As far as my vote goes, keep it the way it is. I second Eddy on the classy part. |
hmm.. that was my intention when I bought it! (and I actually believed that I would be changing my car within 2-3 years!). BUT I have fallen in love with the car - the handling is superb, the hydraulic steering feels an absolutely delight in tight city traffic to twist and turn to precision.. and the best - the sudden surge in power when revved.. very very addictive.. so I don't think I will ever be able to drive/own (and with sensible ownership!) another car within that segment unless I plan to upgrade to a German beauty above 20+.
So, I am pretty much sure that even if I buy another (family) car, I would keep this car for years to come, merely for the driving pleasure.. and hence, this is why I have decided to go for a nice body kit. Moreover, I have not bottom out the car yet. Add to this, most of the roads in Delhi/NCR are absolutely a driver's delight. So, the GC should not be an issue, I guess!
For now, I am also hooked to the Mugen RR kits. I will be showing up these kits to my local accessory guy to check if he can source it..
The RR in white!
