some body must be collecting those emblem or something... all the car in my neighborhood missing either the front or the rear emblem for all the Honda

what color is your valve cover? how'd u paint it? did you do it yourself? if so, what kind of paint did u use?

prelude2005 · 05-25-2002, 05:05 AM

VERY nice...yea what color is your valve cover?

Those are a shrp picture of the motor. I have not seen anybody paint a motor lately. Besides my self. How did you get your tranny clean enough to paint? I looked at mine while it was out and it would have taken a week to get all that crap off. Looks sharp.

yea the battery is in the trunk when i bought the car the guy who had the car before me had the trunk looking like it is in these pics i havent touched the body since i got it just the engine the idiot who had the car before me left wholes and cracks in the top of the trunk from where he had his terminator wing.

the valve cover is gun metal my friend works at a car dealership doing mechanic work he is also the guy who helped me out a lot with this swap he had blue and gunmetal paint at work that he gave me so i used it i thought it turned out pretty nice.

Sweet car, clean. I like it

You need a wire cover though.. Paint it blue to match the head, that would look phat.

Yeah that would make it look even nicer! I like how you have two colors going on.

Car looks nice. All I would suggest is add that matching spark plug cover, and I'd ditch the altezzas.

that's pretty cool, battery in the trunk, just like the MR2s in the front trunk....

yep you should ditch those altezzas and clear out your tail lights... and get some clear bumper lights and you are all ready to go!!!

its nothing hard, i did it too, just run some thick wire to your trunk and get a battery box to put your battery in, make sure you ground it well in the trunk and your done!

blkvteclude · 05-26-2002, 07:31 AM

yea it was not hard one of my friends hooked me up with the kit and i paid about 50$ for the speaker wires, i'll put some pics up soon.
