looks nice. how much did it cost u to get the lude painted?

[twokexlv6coupe]

interesting paint color, like a mix between EBP and baby blue.

thats the mugen bumper right? any reason you didnt get the plate holes shaved? gonna put the plate back on?

It's Mugen or a replica.
The spoilerless deck looks clean on that car. I still can't decide if I wanna do that to mine or not...

[Prelude13]

Man, that is one amazing paint job! nice sparkling color!

[ogsmakdade]

nice to see a paint job done right. that kit lines up flawlessly

[2.2Lude]

not a fan of body kits but this one looks clean AND it lines up perfectly too

[prelude24]

looks so FRESH and so CLEAN

[the_one]

i painted it and put the kit on myself but it still cost me around $3000 in materials and getting all the glass cut out.

look how clean those headlights are. they were all yellow and faded. i just clearcoated them and they look great. can never tell they were painted.

[Brash22]

That looks great mate. Something about the Mugen kit and SH wheels, it always looks awesome. ANd that colour, (sorry, kolor) is just...:congrats:

[Turboduck]

Awesome ... paint kinda girlish, but its good at the same time ... so unique imo. Good job!

[gillywig2]

Love the paint, it seems to glow and really adds to the clean look.

[mizlude]

Hey I know this guy he is cool as hell and the pics of the car do not do it any good because in person its amazing

oh and to make that front end better PUT THE JDM FOGS ON IT Greg

[98_lude]

nice paint job man, but now you have to worry about the scatches that will happen to it. mine is burned orange, man i have scatches all over it don't even know how it happened.

[the_one]

I was wanting to put the fogs in but i really went over my budget so ill have to wait. i couldn't even find any for under like $350, man they are crazy, but they would look awesome.

[rheakpl]

niceee! headlights are lookin realll cleaned up haha.
nice paint job too..you said you worked there right? did you do the prep/paintin?

looks good..plannin on any other performance mods?

[mizlude]

Yeah the fogs for the 5th gen are pricey, but most of the time they come with the full harness and switch. I just got the fogs for my car like 4 months ago and remember that wrecked 4th gen that I bought from Jake, well I got lucky when I got that because it had a super rare tweeter cover that holds the fog light switch for my year lude.

[the_one]

yeah i did all the prep and paint work from start to finish. the kit had to be modified a little to fit as good as it does but thats just the nature of fiberglass. but it can be corrected, there is absolutely no reason why a fiberglass kit should not fit perfectly when installed professionally. dont ever buy a kit from extreme dimensions, I hate to blackball them but every single kit of theirs that i have installed has had to be extremely modified. i have pictures of one kit on an 06 mazda 6 that i put on the rear bumper had to be cut in half, the corners cut off and remolded, it had to be cut into like 8 peices and all molded back together just to fit right. front bumper was not as bad but still cut in like 4 places. its like that with all there kits. they must not let them fully cure before they take them out of the mold and they just warp and twist all to ****.

[3rdGenCrazy]

man!.. she is pretty! and im glad to see u did it right by painting the door jams and stuff since u painted the car a different color! nice work! great job!

[syshs]

interesting color hommie... :)
