cuda 1..is that the one with dual exhaust?


personally id go with the club GTR kit, ixion, or look at what flyryde is making lol but if it HAS to be between them....then the cuda...or mix up the cuda 1 and 2 front and rear. importshark.com can mix and match those two kits

hey guys....is vader--the cow catcher lolol?

Cuda 1 is the most beautiful body kit ever made imo. I've been thinking either that or the vader, but the vader is too... ricey. After seeing pics of the Cuda 1, (spiffywerks, phorq, etc) I found it to be the absolute best ever. One picture even made it look like a futuristic bentley! Vader now looks like the proverbial cow catcher.
Go Cuda 1!!

They're two totally different kits. Surely you must like one look better than the other.

I personally prefer the Cuda 2 front or Genius front on the RD2... but I reckon the Cuda 1 is nicer & more user-friendly than the VS/Vader kit.

The VS & knockoffs do make the RD2 look pretty impressive from some angles but it's also way too low for everyday driving.

Like I told you, talk to Tom at Importshark. He'll be able to help you out. I love my kit, but in all honesty the cuda was my first pic. It adds a classy touch that really sets the Tib apart from anything else. I just didn't want to deal with the "dual exhaust" issue.

With you next to your car, you could have a Play-doh bodykit on and it would still look hot IMO wink1.gif

Hahaha thanks! cool.gif

So it looks like vader has been pushed off the list...down to cuda 1 and ixion...
If i do Cuda 2 i'll most likely have to get the Cuda 2 back or fill in that hole. I don't want to deal with that dual exhaust issue either. I guess it really come down to what kit i can get for a better price....Cuda 1 or ixion.....let the game begin ..lol

What does this have to do with General Performance?

BTW, please don't quote the posts above yours.
