Honda specialist tuner Mugen has released details of a new package for the Honda Accord in Japan, only a day after its launch in that country. The enhancements can be purchased as a complete kit or ‘a la carte'. It includes front, rear and under spoilers, side sills, a bunny-tooth grille and a big rear wing. The Japanese Accord is the same as the Acura TSX and comes with a 2.4-litre four cylinder engine with an exclusive 5-speed automatic gearbox.

A list of four alloy wheel designs is on the menu in two sizes 18 and 19-inch. The performance aspect includes upgrades in suspension, high performance brake pads and rotors, as well as a sports exhaust system.

Europe received the new Accord in the summer of this year after a show debut in Geneva. Mugen was founded by its former CEO Hirotoshi Honda, the son of Honda founder Soichiro Honda.

I love Honda/Acura, especially anything mugen, but the oversized spoiler look has just gotten childish. The TSX is a great looking car, but if I were to make a suggestion I'd want to be taken a bit more seriously. Does this car really need to create more down force?
