Don't take away the natural lines the car came with. The prelude already looks slightly wide body anyway.
Mugen body kit is personally my favorite. The only issue with it is that it's Fiber glass, even the authentic pieces. In all honesty, if you have the money and patience, then go for the authentic pieces. What most people do is get the replica's of them, which VIS makes good replicas of. I myself have the replica side skirts and rear valences, and they fit fine. As for the replica bumper, you might have some issues with the front turn signal/fog lights fitment, but all it takes is some adjustments. In any case, here's what the Mugen body kit looks like...

In that link if you look at the pics with the rear valences and exhaust, the fitment doesn't look as good as I would have expected from mugen.
So, you said your replicas fit good. I hear most people have to modify them to make them fit right. If they are good I think I found what brand I'm getting.
Yeah, with simple modifications they will fit just fine. Align and drill some holes right on and youre set. There's a little more if you want to get into detail, so the Search function is your friend. =)

I know the search function is my friend, I use it alot. But with search you can't always get all the info you need. That is why I asked about the VIS racing fitment.
