one of my buddies with a prelude is fiberglassing me a lip kit. he made one for his lude and it looks awesome! just started cutting out the cardboard today but it should be done in about a month only have one picture but ill be sure to take more as the progress continues.

 

laugh

out

loud







gonna look OEM?

 

please post pics of the preludes homemade kit..

 

yes, lets see how the prelude came out.

 

Keep the cardboard on there...

But seriously, pics of the Prelude?

 

I'm not going to give my 2 cents until I see the finished product, or at least the lude kit...

i cant really see the final product either but i have faith. i cant find his post on prelude power but ill have the link tomorrow

 

hey im the guy making the lip kit, ill have pix tomorrow of my mugen replicas i made im working on my rear mugens right now

 

Mock up and test fit, just to get a gauge on where it should sit and dimensions and all


off the car with a side shot


gettin a little JAY DEE EMM with the mugen look alike with some wings west curves


Retro fits about half way.. ohhh just added that for shitz n gigs


supperior lighting FTW!!


half way thru for both the pix, i still gotta do some touch up on em, theyre ugly now and im getting to a crazy legit belt sander and disc sander next friday in my old high school wood shop.



this one is about half way as well and partially sanded too.

 

i think what we're shooting for in over all appearance is OEM style front and side skirts and a WW rear.but dropping the side skirts just a tiny bit so we can match it with how low the WW rear sits,

 

post some pix up of some of your completed FG work

 

looks like dudu. lol. still waiting for finished pics

 

its to dark to take pix tonite of my skirts, but ill grab some tomorrow morning before work, theyre DUUURTY!! haha and i messed up the paint on one skirt, i sprayed primer on both, then painted both, and then i went to clear coat and sprayed one and i had to go do somthing for my fiancee and sprayed the other like 2 hrs later, and waited about 45 mins and i grabbed the wrong skirt and put a NICE big thumb print in it lol. guess that ones gettin painted again come spring!

but deffinatly will have pix tomorrow guys.

 

interesting...

Looks good, good work! Got any shots that are farther away?

 

ill go get some right now! thx lol, i took a picture of the mugen side skirts and i kinda propotioned it out to the picture, and thenmeasured and proportioned it out in real life mocked it up like staffords and went to town, his isflaing out because it was the first fitment test, fit great but flared a bit, it wont do that when we take off the side skirts tho.

 

excuse the absense of the rear lip lol, still working on my fiber glass ones, they should be done next friday, well with the sanding at least, and they should be primed and painted the same day. so next saturday they should be on!

 

not liking how the body curves in, and the side skirt doesn't, but for a homemade kit it is very (also looks like it needs some chips filled in also on the courners, but thats minor though)


and for your side skirts, i don't understand why you just don't get the factory side skirts, if you are jut copying them anyways

 

i like the way mugen looks, i like how theyre flat in the front and kinda flare out toward the back, and on top they actually stick out about an inch or so, idk thats just how mugens are made, and so far when i would show ppl they would ask me where i bought em at. and i tell em i made em my self lol

 

I lo0kzZzz A o0ooh kay to me, and to think u made it on ur own. . . 2 thumbs up homie

 

Looks good for homemade. Agreed with fries though, body curves in but kit is straight. But I bet it'd be a PITA to match the curve exactly.

 

eghhh i'd take comfort in knowing my lip kit is plastic... homade fiberglass is probably as strong as a doritos potato chip.

 

Gotta give him props for making his own kit.... Doesn't look bad at all... needs a little fine tuning but overall a good job... Why spent 7-8 hundred on a lip kit when you can make your own for a fraction of the cost... can't wait to see the finished product

Wish I knew how to work with the FG like that... sky would be the limit...

Who knows... 19 yrs old.. we might be watching the next big body kit/ lip kit company in its infant stages

 

If you're gonna do that might as well try to copy one of the JDM kits Blaze, Value Sports...



with OEM u'll just look like anyone else.

 

who???, never heard of them , but it does make the car look low

 

legit... pretty damn good for home made

 

OMG. brb




ok all done and good. that car is pure sex

 

 

SICKO, this is suppose to be SFW


anyways, i thought you were not going to mod your tl anymore

 

well ill get pix of a legit mugen side skirt and you tell me if i matched it





i think i matched em pretty fuckin good.

 

well, i just put some JP neck pillows and fell in love with the car again. im gonna drop it again on some eibach springs in a few weeks. let the re-modding begin

 

don't like the fart can on that one, but it does seem like you matched it pretty well (best way to tell would be a side-to-side comparision though)
still don't like how it sticks out, but that is just personal taste though

 

just more VIP style this time, i guess

if so, should't it be slammed on coilovers (or even better bagged), and not just springs
