Doorsill Protection

[dp-aus4 3]

Are Mugen good quality products? Particularly interested in their scuff plate that suits the Prelude BF1 (SKU: 84200-XPD -K0S0):

I have already installed the kick guard from Axis-parts for the "inner" doorsill, as I prefer a matt, leather feel finish - see attached photo, and at:



Next, planning to install the aforementioned Mugen scuff plate on the "outer" doorsill.

Do other forum members have a different set up to share please? (I already know about the OEM illuminated option.)

The Mugen reputation from AI: “Mugen (無限, meaning “Without Limit”) has an elite, near-mythical reputation in the Honda and broader JDM enthusiast community. It is widely regarded as the most prestigious and authentic Honda performance specialist—essentially the closest thing to an official factory racing/tuning arm without actually being owned by Honda Motor Company..”

I started to write something like this and thought - “just ask Grok” - and Grok produced the correct, perfect answer. “elite, near-mythical” is perfect for Mugen

Mugen is very much officially unofficial. Often Mugen stuff is actually produced by Honda themselves. Though the story is a bit muddled, they ARE a spinoff of Honda itself. So Mugen and HRC are the two that'll get you as close to OEM quality as possible.

I'm more interested in the Axis bits, how did you find the quality, and does it look like a convincing OEM piece in person? I was worried the edges might not be very flat and would make it a bit stuck on, but they do seem to offer a really comprehensive range of bits.

Yup, they've been around for a long time. That in itself is a rarity now a days.
