Artifex · 12-21-2009, 03:23 PM

I didn't even know you could get 19s on a Prelude.

98BB6er · 12-21-2009, 04:00 PM

Looks pretty sweet!

Where did you get 6000K HID foglight bulbs?

tom27897 · 12-21-2009, 09:51 PM

DMT81 · 12-22-2009, 03:03 AM

Thanks guys much appreciated!

HID's for the fogs are just H3 HID kit off eBay

The european luders get the special blue leather interiors, and the AU gets a specual red leather interior!

**** JDM type-S.........and **** whoever thought americans would be happy with the ****ty ass interior we got!

I wonder why they didn't even give us the option?

Bro, that is a very nice car, lucky you are.

What did you do to the gauge cluster? Looks like you have VW R32 rings stuck in there or something.

DMT81 · 12-23-2009, 08:18 PM

the AUDM Ludes only had the option of black or cream leather mine had black when i bought it but i had it re-trimmed in the burgundy for something different, think it contrasts well with the black exterior

Gauge rings were bought off eBay i had the stock ones painted silver for a while but there are real aluminum and look heaps better!

MountianLude · 12-24-2009, 01:36 AM

Nice looking lude, im not one for huge rims but hey its a matter of taste

. But i gotta admit they do make it look V.I.P., I would expect to see Jay-Z driving that.

prepreludesh · 12-24-2009, 03:20 AM

Am I the only one that loves the muffler? Makes me think I should've gone for that instead of the current Magnaflow I have now...

Also, the tail lights just don't fit the scheme of your car. I'm not saying you should have blacked out lights (then it would look stupid) but I think you should go for OEM tail lights with an LED modification on them, then that would complete the baller look, nice and clean.

NickosVTi · 12-24-2009, 10:16 AM

Very nice Lude, also I don't like the tail lights but overal the car looks very nice and clean and I want that Climate Control!! much better than the A/C.

DMT81 · 12-28-2009, 12:45 AM

cheers for the feedback guys know it wont be to everyone's taste but as we all know modding a car comes down to personal taste i guess

never mind i found them by looking for 14805 lol, hey when you google magnaflow 14805 prelude your car comes up

ExtrudeLude · 02-09-2010, 07:16 PM

Did you clear the tail lights yourself, or did you buy them that way. And how did you do it, or where did you buy them? I am looking for clear tail lights for a little project idea.

DMT81 · 05-15-2010, 01:25 AM

Had been looking for a while for some Chrome Mirror covers as i didn't want to change my factory mirrors, finally tracked some down so took a few pics this arvo let me know what you guys think

Just for fun what the car would look like with 20's instead of 19's and with a couple more inches taken out of the ride height!

tom27897 · 05-15-2010, 07:11 PM

Personally i think the chrome mirrors are a little too much lol and if you did go 20's i think you'd be the first one to EVER rock 20's on a prelude hahahaha in fact, you're still the only person i know of that went as big as 19's lol
