I have the same question. Apart from the name, what are the pros of having Mugen visors?

Really? I seem to be having search problems... I just tried that exact search and had to do a lot of digging just to find pics.

Thanks for the posting them up

They are pretty sleek, I like them!

I am a JDM whore. Dave can attest to my obsession. Even so I think the OEM visors look much cleaner. I would really like to see an install thread for the real Mugen Visors, and see if it is a comparable install to the OEM's. The only thing I can think that would be different is lower rumble because of better channeled airflow.

I dig the OEM look. They flow nicely and don't scream "look at me, I'm window visors!" Get whatever you like better, but I think you should go OEM since it seems like everybody else has or is getting Mugens.

Is it easy to tell if it's an actual mugen visor or mugen-style?
Quality wise, how does the access visor compare to the mugen visor?
I want the real stuff.

If you go Mugen, get real Mugen not Mugen "Style". The real ones have clips and cost about $190 or so.

OEM can be ordered at Bernardi or at your local dealers parts dept.

Some have them in stock too. I ordered mine online from the dealership enar me and when I called they had them in stock. Same day pickup!

Mugen goes well with the aggressive look of the GE IMO. Can't go wrong with either.

I vote for the Honda Access Visors because its clean and doesn't stick out too much. I like Mugen, but I'm not feeling their visors on the GE8.

Those look way better. I like how they're inverted too, a bit different from the GD3 Access Visors which go outwards. If you had gone with the Mugens then you wouldn't have lived up to your SN of "OEMfit."
