Hi everyone. I'm new to this forum. He's my story. A shop owner was selling a 97 prelude for his customer and friend. The car was bought new by this guy and he drove it for quite awhile, after which he gave to his daughter. Well the car was serviced on a regular basis, but not keep looking good. The lude had moderate rust at the rear wheel wells, a substantial dent in the hood and left fender. Other than that, the car ran great. Almost new michelin pilots, new clutch and inspected til. 11/2011. The interior was like new. He called me and told me of the car. Asking $1800.00. To shortin the story, I bought it.
Things that have been done since then:
New hood
New fender
All little dings/dents removed
Rust repaired(rust grinded and new metal welded in)
body sanded and painted, base and clear coat - original color with Dupont paint
Weather tech window rain gaurds
Orig. Honda mud flaps - hard to find new
New wheels on order

Must have missed the 5spd shifter in the 2nd pic.?
To the OP, where did you get the battery cover?

SoCalPrelude.com MODS only inforce rules on some and not on all. Kyle is a joke.
BTW, Eric Schultz in CA is a known scammer. He did it to me, he can do it to you. Just a heads up. Know as "backinblue92" here on PO.com
The cover was a plastic container top. It fit right over the battery, so I punched a hole where the bolt was and put on a nut. Something very simple, but looks kinda cool. Also check out the new wheels. Thanks
