i really am starting to loose faith in this forum... everyone is really being an asshole now. yea sure it looks all riced out and all but when people are criticized for simply asking a question, even a stupid question there is no reason to be such an asshole. give the OP some credit, all he wanted to know is how it was done.... people on this forum really need to stop being so immature.
We lost faith a long time ago when it became free. You know, I grew up with people saying "there is no such thing as a stupid question", that may be true but there is such a thing as doing one's homework or even common sense.
Learning how it's done is one thing as opposed to asking something so broad a few sentences on the internet won't help. It's like me asking how to do open heart surgery and is there a write up.
I don't mind answering specific questions or even helping out small little things but with a question like this, I figure most would know. Maybe it's not so common knowledge.

FYI guys, not all of us can spend ALL of our time working on or researching our cars, but that doesnt mean that I love my Lude any less and wanna know more about it. Quit with the "clubhouse" bull****, it gets old.
No but it only takes two seconds to search. Maybe there wasn't a specific topic but you could only find ONE example. What makes you think that even requires a writeup? There are writeups for jdm swaps, CAI installs, etc. Something very specific and not very popular probably isn't going to be a writeup.
Maybe this helps you learn instead of posting something without thinking through or researching. There is no excuse, if there is, then you will get this answer almost everytime (for anywhere).
I did give you a writeup btw, if you follow it, you will get the desired results.

Its funny you mention open heart surgery as I am a Cardiac Anesthesiologist Assistant in the OR at my hospital, people ask me very broad questions all the time about things like Coronary Artery bypass grafts, Aortic Valve repairs etc. and it can be frustrating to try and give a consice answer to such a large topic, especially to someone who knows nothing about the subject. The only difference is that I try not to be a sarcastic dick when answering.
As i dont have taste for this at all... some people might ( i guess) i definitely wouldn't go about doing this mod myself seeing as though i have no exp with body work but a reputable body shop should be able to do this. why not go talk to a shop?

I'm done with this forum, btw. Good Job everyone.
You are an anesthesiologist's assistant, and you drive a Prelude.....? I'm calling Bull****. Anesthesiologists are the best-paid doctors because they run the biggest risk of killing somebody during surgery. If they get the dosage of the anesthesia wrong, you ain't waking up. They carry millions of dollars worth of insurance. You expect us to believe that you drive a 4th gen Prelude?!?!?!?! GTFO

Okay smart guy, since you know everything, ill keep it short. I didn't say I was an Anesthesiologist, did I? Nope. I said A.A., Anesthesiologist Assistant. Bachelor's degree + 2 years of P.A. school. Different title. Different job. Different pay. Google it if you need to. Do us all a favor and keep your expert, "Dur, you ain't waking up" opinions to yourself and save the trashtalk for the kids. I dont expect you "to believe" anything, jackass.
And btw, I bought a Prelude because I like it, I also have an Acura MDX and a Volkswagen Passat since you were so worried about my pay grade. Not all of us only drive the cars we do just because its all we could afford.

I'm studying to be a Chemical Engineer and I'm sure as hell going to be driving a 5th gen. I'll probably have an NSX in my garage, sitting next to a 1st gen Prelude, but my DD will sure as hell be a 5th gen.
That has got to be the ugliest 5th gen I've ever seen! OMG that poor lude what did it do to deserve that? Eat an SS tranny, and the auto tensioner at the same time?! Leave the rice for the me too's

Actually sir, i beleive you to be mistaken. It is you who has the issues not us/they/them/we; you see sir, this forum operates in the same manner day to day with many users finding this website resourceful, helpful, thought provoking and pleasing to use. So for you to come on here with expectations that this website is going to suddenly behave differently, is wrong. You need to change your attitude and you need to change how you communicate to others, perhaps try a less hostile manner of approach. As for your taste in car, well you are a Honda Prelude fan so i give you that but Honda aside I think you are a jerkoff and more than likely that you have a ricedout car, like the above conversion mistake thing...
those headlights look really similar to what one guy did, if not the same thing. the link was over on pp.com. needless to say your gonna need to cut the hood and do a lot of body work
