Mugen induction and strut brace issue - recommendations?

[MorttisMachine]

Was going to say that, can you fit an OEM pfl brace and a replica mugen one with the airbox? Added rigidity, the replica Mugen brace should go straight on with the PFL oem one also, John, do you know if the PFL oem one fits the FL or was it a different design for a reason and does not fit.

Sorry being a newby, PFL Brace?

Damn it, then just the replica mugen it would be then I'd say, looks nice, does the job and clears the induction

Thanks for the info there guys, so we reckon this is the one to fit my facelift and clear the Mugen air box? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/JDM-Honda-Integra-Acura-RSX-DC5-Front-Strut-Tower-Bar-Brace-MUGEN-style-02-06-/252856541195

Yeah that's the one and the rear they also do mate, if you get a rear one let me know how it is and if you need templates for the interior panel cutting etc and I will get them over to you.

Cheers guy's, I'll get one ordered up. Just going for the front as I need to maintain the boot space currently.

Appreciate the help

Post pics and review of the finish and fit of bar. As for the price of a piece of metal it‘s a lot cheaper than genuine

There's a guy from Bristol named Chris (I can't remember his username). He posted a guide on how to modify the mounting brackets of the intake and lower it for more clearance.
Chris owns a PFL, but same thing surely.

Somebody help me with the username?. White with candy red Evo/Enkie wheels, etc.

Rom?

^ yes Rom

Although not sure why he lowered it being a PFL and should fit fine, unless fouled something else?

I'll post up some pics when it arrives and let you know what I think. Fingers crossed it will resolve the issue.
