Default Difference between Mugen and Type R valve cover
Just posting this for reference.

The standard B16 spark plug wire cover does not fit a mugen type valve cover. I made this pic to illustrate the differences.






That is all...

It looks like the same shit to me. It's just a slightly different camera angle that makes it look different. I think.

This is coming from a photographer, and not a mechanic.

And you're a geek for sure for making that animation.

About 750 bucks. I also don't think Mugen sells a wire cover or if there even is one for that valve cover.

Thats the original color, Mugen never made a red one, thats the dead-giveaway that its a fake ebay one.
