Rudeludes, 5th Gen

Post by Rudelude » Wed Apr 30, 2014 9:03 pm

Recently got back to Lude-loving, with my amazing find of a low mileage 2.2vti minter.
And I've got some ideas in mind for it, starting off with the Mugen Kit (similar to motegi but a little bit more flared).
It's so amazing and now in the hands of a sub 80 year old, I'm gonna treat it too a few goodies.

The kit is replica but looks very good and does fit! Gonna take it down to the body'shop tomorrow to assess when it can be all fitted. And I've got a few basic engine upgrade bits, really want the mugen twinloop exhaust :idea: got to locate one at a decent price.....any ideas appreciated...

Okay the bit you all want, photos :arrow:

Interested to see where this goes 8-)

But those are just Motegi side skirts and that front lip looks like a smoothed GReddy :?

Yep. Only those rear spats are mugen. Side are motegi and front is replica greddy.
Never been a fan of the greddy. Too wide on the front sides.
Will look good anyway.

Never mind that they are not Mugen, they will make a big difference to the look 8-)
