FINALLY got my lude back - Honda Prelude Forum

Well, for the THIRD time im ATTEMPTING to post pictures of my car.
I love how it erases your message after it tells you that youve "posted too many images.."

Anyway. Here goes. Keep in mind it ISNT DONE.. the support beam isnt in (had to modify my previously modified one..) so front hangs low.. hood fits 100% perfect though.

BEFORE =

AFTER =

The exhaust and coilovers are currently off the car, I haven't had the chance to put them on. Debating on removing altezzas for stocks, probably will. Also debating on getting a 3pc spoiler.

Thanks. More pictures here

The new color is gorgeous! What color is it exactly? Or is it a custom color?

Hope you get that sucker adjusted right, or that gap's gonna let enough air in to rip that thing wide open on the highway

-Ditch the Alcheezas
-Black widow style

Other than that, its a sweet color, and a sweet car.

alvin · 07-11-2002, 01:40 PM

thanks for the sweet comments.. yeah im going to put the stock taillights on tomorrow, along with the new exhaust and coilovers, and oilchange, and finishing my n2o..

and of course my radios giving me problems that i cant determine.

Its going up for sale when i move to VA beach tuesday.

The old bumper was ALOT easier to drive with, it angled up at the front and I always hated that, but now I understand why they made it like that.. I've scraped this frontend SO many times w/my stock springs, Im scared to lower it.

munky69 · 07-15-2002, 08:19 PM

were in va beach you moving? have you been here before? the only reason anyone lives here is cuz of the navy(i.e. no choice).it sucks here..anyway nice ride

the hood is carbon fiber right? hope it's not just black......you'll definetly see ALOT of that around here.

Ludatic · 07-16-2002, 12:50 AM

monte carlo blue is awesome

ur old paint looked awesome too, but i didnt like the brown. Is it the same paint they use at the autopia cars at disneyland.. and also on the TVR in the movie swordfish. i've seen many variations of ur old paintjob, some wihtout the brown..

soopaswoze! · 07-17-2002, 11:20 AM

brown?
it's cyan to purple, no brown.. sunkist orange and teal in between..9 colors total.. not really brown..but thanks

yeah I grew up in Va beach..well, at least longer than anywhere else, and my best friends are there. And trust me, the import scene there, and the "what-to-do" factor is SO much larger there than here.

shik0me · 07-17-2002, 11:30 AM

nice car

I like the front bumper a lot, especially the tip of the nose. Looks much better having something there instead of a hole. The color is

too, I bet it looks stunning in person. I would definitely ditch the altezzas though.

SiR-P12eLude · 07-17-2002, 02:40 PM

are you going to get some grills or just going to leave it alone
