It turns out the Mugen really <em>is</em> fast. Just yesterday we got <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2013/09/05/honda-launches-new-fit-japan-big-expectations-north-america/">our first official look at the JDM version of the all new Honda Fit</a>. In both Hybrid and minty-fresh RS trim, the Japanese Fit is more complexly surfaced and angular than in any of the previous generations. <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2013/08/02/honda-fit-mugen-busted-in-brochure-scans/">Mugen has apparently been working with the new Fit</a> body for a while, as the tuning house has just released some images and information about parts for the new hatchback.<br />
<br />
Suddenly the original <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/honda/">Honda</a> styling seems somewhat restrained.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.autoblog.com/tag/mugen/">Mugen</a> has crafted body kit parts to work with both the Hybrid and RS models, right from go. Though detailed information is still a little sparse, we're told that parts include: two types of front spoilers, a bumper and a chin spoiler, side skirts, and a carbon fiber rear wing (for the RS).<br />
<br />
In terms of functional accessories, a sport exhaust, upgraded brake pads and a new slinky set of Mugen wheels are all up for grabs. "Semi-bucket" and "full-bucket" racing seats can also be had, as can a gauge cluster for water temperature, oil temperature and oil pressure.
