mugen kit for 4th gen

maybe its just me but i absolutely love the mugen kit for the 4th gen lude.... i however cant find it, and will probably never find it... as cool as it looks and as far as i know i cant believe no one has even made a copy kit.

i was thinking that if we all (if im not the only one that likes it) spammed some really good makers of quality kits with countless email they might just seriously think about making the kit... maybe we could get all the honda and prelude sites out there to help us out...

i heard that this is how the owners of cavaliers were able to convince people to make altezzas for them.

just a thought

just in case you dont know what the mugen kit looks like go to...

http://members.tripod.com/preludebody/start.htm

click on the 4th gen prelude on the left side of the page then scroll through through the top of the page under body kits until you find MUGEN...

Yo that Mugen kit is nice!



I think that's the same one!?! I'll be ready to send as many e-mails as it takes to get that kit. As soon as someone gets an e-mail address! Anyone got more pictures?

I like the WW RS kit better. I think people like the Mugen just because it's made my Mugen. That is just as "played out" as Altezza's. (Wow im going to get shot down for that).


Go easy on me please.

Speaking of played out, the WW RS kit is the most played out 4th gen kit known to mankind. Sad but true.

yeah, it is a bit played out, but I still love it. And there's still a load more Ludes still driving around with the stock bumpers/side skirts...like mine is right now. I want to eventually get the WW RS. I don't care if it's played out, I like it.

How many kits do you think will need to be made in order to turn a profit for the mfg. company? I think it will be difficult to stir up enough people interested in the kit for the companies to go ahead and make one. I like the way the kit looks, too, but I'm trying to be reasonable.

The RS kit is played out, and for good reason. It is one of the nicest kits out for our car. We have a limited selection when it comes to subtle kits, and the RS takes the cake.

It is popular because it looks agreat, but stock. It is not my style, for examply, to get something wild like a shogun kit. The RS front looks very much like a nicer stock prelude. Nice stock-type shape and lines.

We do need more kits like that. The RS is the only nice one and I dont like the side or back. SO i wont get the RS front cause even if i use stock sides, then the back bumper looks to short... We can really mix and match with going for an agreesive look.

North Minneapolis, for now. It's too ghetto here, so I'm moving to BP next week.

Not too many luders around here. My car is ashamed to be called a lude.

Take it easy

I give it to you guys that the WW RS kit is the nicest simple kit their is. I'm no fan of space machine kits at all. But for some reason i just don't like the front lip. They could've done a better job of the way the fitment looks. You see how the lip goes up over the bumper all the way to under the sidemarker lights? I doesn't look right to my eye. I don't like the overlap. But yes, it is the nicest easiest available kit for our cars.

Get it molded by a body shop and it looks sweet!
Same goes for the rear and sides!

NICE The real question... What does something like that cost to get the front/rear bumper molded? Is it as simple as putting a little bondo on to make it look molded? Or do they actual mold it on costing $$$?

Anyone have any ballpark figures?
