The Japanese tuner DAMB has created a “kit” that allows the small Suzuki Jimny to be transformed into a nearly perfect and affordable replica of the Land Rover Defender. But the potential for transformation of the distinctly retro-inspired lines of the latest generation of the Japanese 4×4, which have been so successful among fans of the more classic off-road image, demanded more… And the “tuning” specialist has just launched a new aesthetic line of the “European Masterpiece” range, inspired by two of the most exciting compacts of the 80s, with a tradition in rallying.
We are talking about the Lancia Delta Integrale and the beloved Renault 5 Turbo, honored with the “Little Δ” and “Little 5” kits from DAMB.
The set includes completely redesigned front sections, with the Delta featuring the typical grille and four round headlights, as well as a central stripe that runs through the entire bodywork to the rear, where the spoiler in the shape of a ducktail is located at the end of the roof. The R5-inspired kit does the same with the style characteristics of the model from that era, with a black plastic front bumper, square headlights, and the vinyl detail on the door with the phrase “Non Turbo,” after all, the engine is still 100% naturally aspirated.
Both are presented with beautiful aluminum wheels from OZ Racing.
