Mugen or OEM window visors?
OEM. I couldn’t tell if there was any difference between OEM & Mugen, so went with the less expensive option this time.

Im beginning to really like the look of the car without the red pinstriping. especially with aftermarket wheels. I think it flows better with the pin strip of the oem wheels. I wonder tho, would it be easy to put back on ?

Yeah, I can’t say I ever really liked the red stripe on the ground effects nor on the stock wheels. It took all of about 90 seconds to pull off the red vinyl tape on the ground effects. It would take a little longer to re-stripe it, but not difficult at all, just a little focus & a steady hand.

I think losing the red stripe makes the CTR look a little more sophisticated. It’s already pretty wild style wise. For me, the red stripes made it feel more like a hot wheels car.

Easy peezy. Just start at one end & pick at a corner with your nail. Once it’s starts just pull it up smoothly & comes right off like peeling a sticker. No residue or cleaning needed. You’ll be surprised how easy/clean it comes off.
