haha, I didnt even notice she was gripping the steering wheel like that BONUS!

*Tiny Update*

Fitted the Mugen rep spoiler over the weekend, it fits nice and flush, but ill be honest Im feel unsure about it at the moment, either I love the standard spoiler TOO much or its because I havent got round to fitting the Motegi bodykit yet....
Anyways let me know what you think, I didnt get pics from the side

Sunny morning before pic....

After......

Pretty kewl straight from the back....

I also picked up some fogs in great condition inc. the plastic's, the original power connectors for both fogs then up to a point, i assume where you can plug into the power/switch. The switch itself was inc. but I want to install a new switch button and feed it to the battery itself. Ive heard you can get kits for this? Any one whos done it, point me in the right direction of what and where to buy?

Bought some what I called "Dirty Yellow" wrap to go on the fogs themselves for that oldskool look, quite excited to get these on the car. I owned a Celica a while ago and my fav part of the car was the fog lights once I wrapped them yellow.

I think the Mugen spoiler is a bit Marmite -either love it or hate it. On a practical note, I've found that when it's wet the spoiler create some sort of vacuum when you're driving and such up loads of dirty wet sh1te over the back of the car. Never had the problem on my previous Lude which didn't have a spoiler.

yeah it create's a low pressure area at the back of the car causing the the air to tumble and slow down thats why i think it should be paired with the spats and not the lip ????

i like the mugen spoiler and mugen dont produce stuff just for looks orrrrrr do they??

+1

I really liked mines on my old JDM SiR..

But it needs a front lip and some lowering to make it look great.

Great progress on the lude. Black looks awesome and the red interior really sets it off.
Sorry to hear about the bottom end on your previous lude. What cause the bottom end to go?
How did you attach the rear tow hook? Was looking to get one specifically for track days as a tow hook for the front is impossible without major modification.

What next on your project list?

The wife works in Croxley business park and says to me that she always sees a black v reg prelude, even had it following behind her yesterday on the way in to the business park. Shes been bugging me to look it up to see if its someone on this forum. lol
