Codyh's Prelude VTEC Refurbish Thread

[ZOOM95-S]

you should focus on the RUST especially the rear fenders..

[codyh]

Haha I know guys... I kinda messed up buying the exhaust and coilovers first and not the quarters. But in time.

Personally i've never heard anyone consider the prelude as a "chick" car lol. But for one, you HAVE to fix that rust before you paint it, i know you probably already intend to but it'd just be a waste of money if you didnt lol. A pure white color would look amazing. I always liked the look of a white 4th gen. And for some reason i always thought a pure white prelude with a pure white valve cover looked sick! Also the stock rims look nice but there's nothing wrong with a nice CLEAN set of rims, something simple to go with the car but nothing too extravagent to take away from the car's looks.

Check out this white 4th gen. DEFINITELY one of my favorites. This guy put a lot of attention to detail in his car. You might get some ideas too. Keep up the good work, you're car definitely looks like it'll come out very nice if you keep this up! Good luck!

[codyh]

Hahaha of course im fixing the rust before i paint. lol

Dude, the rust can wait. I think he's doing a great job of getting things done. Priorities man... and they're called quarter panels.

[codyh]

[codyh]

What do you guys think of Aztec green as car color?

[tom27897]

Not a fan of the Aztec green. I say go white, black, or a deep blue

[codyh]

Its to much like everyone else.

[sccrwolf1310]

I personally love 4th gens in white. I also think a maroon kinda color would look really nice too. But its your car that you've been rebuilding basically from the ground up it's your decision on what color you make your car. The pink is a bad idea tho haha

[codyh]

Hahaha... Well I think any color looks good as long as time was taking to prep, time to paint the car well with good paint, and the paint/wheel color combo. I like the maroon color too. But I cant find a color.

[tom27897]

Starfire white pearl, a simple set of silver 5 spoke, 7 spoke, or 10 spoke or however many spokes you want lol and some purple lug nuts to give it that eye catching look. Oh and a lip kit. I dont have any recomendations on a lip kit tho cause i never really looked into 4th gen lips. And there you have it, one sexy ass lude. Of course you need to have the valve cover painted to match the car too, for obvious reasons.

I like aztec green with white wheels, and a polished lip. Obviously lowered LOWww..

BTW just got all the prices for my body panels.... -.-

It's a nice color if you keep good care of it... when it starts to fade or anything it turns nasty. i like the white wheels too and of course the lip. steep prices?

[codyh]

eh.... Just under 1g.

Thats what I was thinking. When it fades it is gross.
