DAMD Resonator injects American elements into the Honda Stepwgn

Several new body kit projects will be showcased by leading body kit manufacturer DAMD at the 2026 Tokyo Auto Salon this month.

One that caught our attention is the Renonator body kit, which transforms the Honda Stepwgn minivan into a distinctly American-style van.

The original minimalist look of the Stepwgn has been replaced with a more stylish front, starting with four overlapping rectangular halogen headlights and separate turn signals.

The grille structure is also larger, accompanied by a flatter hood and an intentionally unpainted additional structure on the front bumper.

The retro elements of the Renonator are further enhanced by the presence of wood decals on the sides, Dean Cross Country chrome disc rims, and amber position lights on the roof.

All four corners of the wheel arches are fitted with Toyo Tires Open Country A/T tires.

Interestingly, DAMD claims that this kit can be installed without major modifications while still retaining the original Honda emblem complete with ADAS sensors.

You can also get a closer look at this American-style minivan at DAMD’s booth at the 2026 Tokyo Auto Salon, which will take place later this month.

Mitsubishi Delica Mini transformed into a mini Pajero

Kei cars typically feature a cuter design, suited to their small size.

However, leading body kit manufacturer DAMD has come up with an idea to give kei cars a more aggressive, rugged, and stylish appearance.

For instance, the “Dali” body kit (shortened from Dakar Rally) successfully transforms the cute Mitsubishi Delica Mini into a retro machine inspired by the 1980s Pajero model.

If you notice, the new headlights resemble the design of the first-generation Pajero. Additionally, it features a square grille structure, complete with the original Mitsubishi emblem, which also houses various ADAS sensors.

The original front bumper structure of the Delica Mini has been retained, including the “DELICA” lettering and original air intakes, but it has been enhanced with special decorative elements finished in glossy black.

Importantly, all these additions do not compromise the original dimensions of the Delica Mini and still comply with the kei car regulations set by the Japanese government.

DAMD is also offering a custom side decal set, 15-inch Cantabile alloy wheels shod with Toyo Tires Open Country R/T tires, and, of course, a roof rack.

Accessories for the cabin are still in the development phase. The complete package price will be announced later.

This model will be officially showcased at DAMD’s booth at the Tokyo Auto Salon 2026, taking place this month.

DAMD Reverb creating an identity crisis for the Honda WR-V

1 Comment

Are you bored with the standard appearance of the Honda WR-V?

If an identity crisis is what you’re looking for, worry not, as this Japanese tuning company is indeed an expert in transforming the looks of standard models into something much more distinctive.

DAMD will showcase several interesting models at the 2025 Tokyo Auto Salon.

One of them is the Reverb, a Honda WR-V (also known as Honda Elevate) that has been redesigned to resemble a Jeep Cherokee XJ.

The front end of the Honda WR-V has been completely altered, featuring rectangular headlights and a six-slot grille that reminds us of the classic Cherokee model.

Additionally, the sides of this SUV have been adorned with decals that mimic wood paneling found on vintage American station wagons, followed by unpainted plastic wheel arch cladding.

Completing this stylish image is a set of black steel rims wrapped in BFGoodrich mud-terrain tires.

In addition to the WR-V, DAMD will also present the following models:

1. Stuart – A Toyota Sienta with a front design reminiscent of a Mini Cooper
2. Rodney – A sportier version of the Honda N-Box Custom
3. Lucky – A Daihatsu Taft that resembles the 90s Daihatsu Rocky F300
