Yea I think the same way... lot more cleaner look and I like the bolts...
but the Mugen one looks just as good... just sticks out more with more curves... really does seem like you can't go wrong on this one!

Good luck!

I'm thinking since the mugen stick out more and are more curved that they will provide more air when the window is opened at level with the visors? Anyone?

Sounds interesting.. I would like to know this myself! I do believe that they do though because of the curves. but thats just me.

have you experienced any sound problems? Like when you're on the freeway and you open just a little crack because someone let one out.. Will you hear the air hitting your ears?

the air comes in but never hit me directly.
like all visors it gets a little noisy with them down.
but well worth it.

I think the Mugen style looks a little better BUT the OEM look good as well. Another thing you have to consider is the price.

I don't know about the US but here in Vancouver (Canada) AJR wants $260+ CAD for the Mugen visors when we can get the OEM ones from Honda for ~$70-$80. That's a pretty big price difference right there.

I can get the OEM visors + car tinted for the price of Mugen visors

Why do you need to wait for the tint first? I got mine tinted the week after I installed the visors.

Also, OEM wins.
