Ok, so I've been away for a month or so on enforced leave, a lot of which was spent in intensive care I'm on the mend now but have been told I'm never allowed to drink again which, frankly, is going to leave me with a fair chunk of spare cash in the bank every month
Anyway, I've seen some nice seibon carbon skirts and rear lips for 5g lude's but can't find anything for a 4g so wondered just how different they are - would it be minor changes needed to fit 5g skirts and rear lip to a 4g or would the changes needed be more drastic? I'm tempted to buy a cheapo set of standard 5g skirts and try and fit them as a test but thought I'd ask the question on here first as I'm sure someone must have tried it by now
Thanks in advance
JB

ive seem some 4th gen ludes on preludepower that have 5th gen skirts - looks like they might need a bit of fettling to get them to fit

Yeah I'm on the mend now, I have to go and see my consultant on Tuesday morning to hopefully have a drain removed and find out how my recovery is going and when i can venture back to work
I had a pretty nasty case of Acute Necrotic Pancreatitis which caused multiple organ failure which was a whole lot of fun as you can imagine. Just waiting for the dead bit of my pancreas to heal over now and I should be back to normal or there abouts... Another bonus is I've lost about 2 stone so look healthier than ever
It's a damn shame you can't get carbon skirts for a 4g though, getting custom ones made is going to cost a fortune
