Red and white bodykit?!? - Honda Prelude Forum

mc88 · 03-01-2002, 09:27 PM

Hey guys...I have a San Marino Red 97 lude...and I'm about to put a invader bodykit on very very soon. Im considering painting the full kit something like pearl white or any other white. My hood is chipped and dented so I was thinking I might paint that the same color as well. In a month or soo, Im planning on getting some white rims...which would add to the look...and maybe change the side view mirrors the same as well!!! I know u guys are all about the clean look..this is just a crazy idea that just popped up in my head and a couple of my buddies are urging me to be different and go for it!!! Only thing is Im going to the bodyshop on monday and I must decide by then! Any and all opinions are welcome and appreciated...I just wish I could photo shop it to see what it would look like!!!

But I have an image in my head and it just wont leave..hehehe

Go for it. You'll be different for sure. And that's what you're going for.

Whenever I see cars like that, I always think that the person crashed somehow or got salvaged parts to fix the body or something.

Hell no man...Don't ever have your car look like that..If you want your car to look clean, keep it all one color....

i;ve seen it done.... with a crew.... black and white cars... some had whites in the rear and blacks in the front others had whites in the front and black rears..... not bad if you cruise in a pack... but if your cruising by yourself i think it will look like you didnt paint your kit.

it reminds me of that rally edition lancer... I think it would look pretty good. Different, that is the thing. I would give you props for tryin it, but most of the time i dont really like stuff like that.
