    It looks nice to me. What do you find stupid about it? I like that the lip kind of makes the accord look like one of those older 90's luxury cars.

          If it looks ricey, it looks ricey, regardless of the brand!

          I don't know if those are CB parts, though. To my knowledge, Mugen never made anything for the CB... though that does look like a CB bumper there.

          The Accord Inspire is essentially the Acura Vigor, which means a Vigor owner could get Mugen stuff. That's pretty cool to know!

            That is a cd5-6 lip kit, mugen rep, like 350 just for the front liP if u can find it. Some make crappy reps the spoiler,... Carbon fiber inlayed fiberglass 600-800 used in decent shape, wheels, 1200-3500 depending on who's selling, grill 235 ish. Sweet lookin ride when they're on, been tryin to track this stuff down for my cd5 but hard to find. Keep in mind these are not cb fitted, they are for cd

              Yea Mugen made a kit for the CD5 Accord that if I'm not mistaken was quite popular as an option for the SiR models

                Those are M5s, aren't they? (the wheels). I could've had a set for like $500, with tires... sold fairly locally. I wish I bought them!

                The knockoff Mugen front lips for the CD5 are commonly used on the CB.

                  They're M7s.

                  That's most definitely a 96-97 Accord bumper.

                  It's funny because I have pictures of the 3rd generation Accord Mugen catalog, but no one can seem to source a 4th gen one.

                    That's what I meant. I knew I had the wrong number!

                    I've never seen official Mugen ANYTHING for the CB. I truly wonder if they passed over the platform. I mean, the CB was a much softer, more luxurious car than the 3rd gen. It focused on luxury over sportiness. There wasn't a truly sporty version of the Accord in the 4th generation. That came with the 5th generation... as did the Mugen attention.

                      The eBay "mugen" lips are in no way even close to a real mugen, they just call it that to sell sell sell.

                        ^ The Accord "Mugen-style" lips that everyone sells are replicas of the more popular Civic lips that Mugen made, just tweaked to fit differently-shaped bumpers.

                        "no i used to think it was ricy until i saw it was mugen"



                        Mugen has built just as many parts purely for aesthetic style as they have for any actual function. Pedals? Door sills? Because they're Mugen's and not someone else's means they're not "rice"?

                          trips me out that the vigor / accord inspire even had mugen stuff. the 5th gen accords got love as well but, they inconspicuously skipped the 4th gen accord .

                              I actually wonder why the Inspire got the attention. I suppose it was supposed to be the sporty version of the Accord, but it never really did much in the way of performance. The G series engine got ignored, the funky transmission got ignored, and the car itself was fairly heavy to do anything worthwhile. I don't know if anyone ever even competed in one seriously.
                              The CD saw some serious race action, at least. There were a number of high profile race CDs, I believe. You can still find a model kit of the Spoon CD.
