not diggin the white.. dont really like it...

il give you prop for taking time and effort to making this though .. i know it take lots of patience...

Hawks10 · 01-27-2003, 09:05 PM

good function, bad form, IMO...I give you credit for the time and effort in fabrication, but it is not my cup of tea

showoff · 01-27-2003, 09:12 PM

Yea, I have been getting mixed responses.......it looks better in person, but I think it will look alot better once part of the upper dash is white

HKCitizen · 01-27-2003, 09:28 PM

looks good so far, cant wait to see the finished product =)

Pok-gai · 01-27-2003, 09:56 PM

it looks really bulky

what did you use to make it?

kingxsquid · 01-27-2003, 09:58 PM

IMO you should go all out white. upper dash, door panels, pillars, everything. or at least light gray or something, because (if IIRC you had a pimp ass show trunk) your car can be an awesome looking show car but it needs a nicer interior scheme. black and white dont mix well with those sharp contrasts.

keep up the great work, that gauge pod looks very nice.

it is made out of abs plastic and white vinyl, yea part of th dash is going to be white

showoff · 01-27-2003, 10:10 PM

At first it really really looked bulky, but the more I look at it the more I like it....... I dunno it is pretty big, but I also think since it is white it "looks bigger" --- i hope after I get the dash white beside it, it should look better
Thanks for the constructive criticism rather then just bashing

I think the design is nice, if it was in black, it would look nicer.

By the way, is that CF trim the stick on kind and is it real CF?

red92si · 01-28-2003, 02:08 AM

I think it would look great if it was black... nice fab work.

Eh.. no feeling it bulky and 2 much white....

Anonymous_Luder · 01-28-2003, 08:53 PM

Its a pretty unique idea, I'll give you that. Mad props to you for being original.

But the gauge pod just looks too bulky and

it seems to take away from the smooth lines of the prelude's interior. Also I think there is too much color, especially white, inside your car. The carbon fiber add ons is also kind of contrasting with the white and black interior. But nonetheless, its an interesting set up.

Yea I agree it is kinda bulky, but in all honesty --- i didnt like it much in the begginng --- but I like it now. Each day I like it more.... I dunno

Jon Like Wh0a · 01-28-2003, 10:16 PM

not diggin the big tach....A for effort tho

hope ya live in a good area cuz if u parked in a high crime-rate area, a car with all those gauges (esp with vafc) will get noticed so quickly. i'd hate to see a prelude get jacked. but hope to see it when its done

irishpilot · 01-28-2003, 11:20 PM

Looks really good! I am not a show person so I cant say I like to different color int but like everyone else said it is a original design especially with the Vafc mount.
Cant wait to see final scheme!!!

HKCitizen · 01-30-2003, 12:47 AM

it'll look great Manoj!!.. keep up the good work bro.
