Dad got his Prelude finished Nice pic

[jwrape]

My Dad bought this at a police auction as a regular AWS prelude. He put the body kit and wheels and new interior in it.

[MistaCee]

Its clean and not half- assed :goodjob:

[Nemesis]

Pretty damn cool your dad mods. Hes got pretty good taste too, its not insanely crazy looking.

[addandrew]

ehhh

[mocha latte cupcake]

tr00f ^^^^^ looks good love the color too

[DieselNuts]

not bad, not bad. There are a few things I can name that I think would make it look better. One being, paint the mesh grill black.

[WhiteAccord]

Are his rear wheels wider... or is it just me?

[quickdodge®]

It's cool that your Dad mods, but not cool what he has done. The wheels are the only decent thing on the car. Car is cool as well. But everything added..............ugh! Later, QD.

[jadakid88]

does your dad know that his car is front wheel drive?

[STI101]

I like the rims, not the body kit. Reps for your daddy.

[Papa_Smurf]

great to know my dad isn't the only ricer around here!

[sogood]

Your dad's a ricer.

[Brock]

sexy ride..super clean

[Sammich]

that aint bad...thats a nice show car

[quickdodge®]

looks good man, not a big fan of mesh on body kits but that car looks nice.

[jadakid88]

no there wider!:rolleyes:

[Malice]

its cool as hell that your dad is still into modifying his car. but shouldn't you being a car enthusiast direct him in the right direction? i like the wheels, but the body kit and grill was a popular thing back in the day.

[Thighs]

RICE :goodjob:

it would be nicer if he took off his mudding monster truck lift and the body kit

your car, on the other hand... is sick.

[Sammich]

In 2001. Later, QD.

still not bad for a honda in 08 seeing as how outrageous they have gotten...

[Captain-Obvious™]

looks pretty cool...not a big fan of body kits but this one isn't too crazy and looks pretty nice

[ATK_Designs]

Cool that he mods the car, car needs some fixes (lights look like they don't belong there. And staggered setup on a FWD car?

[UpSideDownDesi]

mesh behind the bumper needs to go or get replaced by thicker black mesh. Loose the fake hood scoops and it will pass for clean ride.

Well, I was gonna be nice about it, but here we go:

What size are his tires? Are the rims too wide or just the wrong offset? Whats that on the hood?

[jwrape]

The wheels are staggered because the rear end is wider than stock. We like the staggered look so we runwider wheels. FWD yea, but ahhh who cares. It's not a racer, it's a ricer. LOL! It all factory motor and drivetrain. It's the look he was going for and with the body kit it would have dwarfed regular size rear wheels. The fronts are 18x8 and the rears are 18x9.5. The hood scoops, I could take them or leave them but the rest looks tough. The interior has been done in burgandy and Black. Very sick from what I have heard, but I haven't seen it in person.
Honestly, I knew a lot of you guys wouldn't like it because of the wheels, but I still wanted to hear your opinions.:D
My Dad and I are both more into muscle cars and rwd cars, as you can prolly tell. he got this car from an auction and just wanted to build it and see what he could make of it. He will drive it and then sell it.
Funny about the FWD with Staggered, i gave him the idea, here is my Volvo C70 Vert.

Am I seeing different pictures than everyone else? I see a very ugly lude. But I love the starion/conquest in his sig.

Lude needs different skirts, front bumper, hood, but the paint looks good.

I will have him re-do it right away. :rolleyes:

Oh, Dad also has a Conquest Tsi SHP that happens to be for sale... I think you would all like it. Here it is-

its nice i guess but you can tell performance was not taken into consideration

Yea, it wasn't the goal for him. It is still a fast little car, but 1) he doesn't plan on keeping it, and 2) he just wanted something to play with and build. Honestly, he will prolly only keep it for a month or so more now that it is finished. He likes building more than driving. Gives him something to keep his mind busy. I am the same way. that is why I am building my Conquest Tsi... :goodjob:

[J-ROCK]

i like it! looks good! jsut paint the mesh black!

[HachiDori]

Eeh....I don't like it. Cool that he did it. But the sideskirts and rear wheel fitment look like crap. The car is still fwd regardless of staggered fitment on hondas nowadays. Paint looks good though

[Crazy Asian]

NO ANOTHER PRELUDE ***** SLAPPED BY THE KITS!!!!!

Oh well looks nice. Rather see a WWRS Lip kit and JDM Headlights.

[quickdodge®]

Neither were looks. Later, QD.

[jwrape]

Yea, it's never easy to sell FWD folks on the Staggered look. it's all how you are brought up around cars i guess. It's all good. :D

lol, he's a mustang owner at heart

those wheels look like the should be on a supra or something that is RWD

[jwrape]

Yea, I foget what they are made for. i think a Mustang or G35 or something. I forget what lug pattern the Prelude has. If it's 5x4.5 then they are Mustang, G35, 350Z wheels.

[DC2NR]

Only thing I'm diggin is the wheels and the color. But to each his own.

[FasTech]

not a big fan of body kits(maybe a front lip) but other than that its clean, nice color....

[FasTech]

Your just mad cause it probably looks better than your car:2up:

Lolol @ your standards. Later, QD.

[_Christian_]

The staggered look goes well the widened rear, even though it's fwd. The body kit, hood scoops, and interior look like ass though.

[2rotor]

his fit and finish could be a touch better (on the outside, inside looks good), not feeling those hood scoops (although i like the touch of contrast on the hood), and who does wheels and doesnt mod suspension?
nice color though.

[FasTech]

Lolol @ your standards. Later, QD.

Hey man you didn't have to get mad just a little humor.....:lmfao:

[down_shift]

for being completely out of touch with current style trends its seems like a quality job. Im sure for someone in the 50s - 60s all imports in the last 10 yrs look the same.

[bb4pimp]

i like the interior, nice dyed seats i would do that, but mine is leather

[Echonova]

Tell your dad to black-out the mesh grill. It would flow a little better than I think. Not my style, but at least it was done well.

[Kyle]

Your just mad cause it probably looks better than your car:2up:
Hahahahahahahah. No way in hell. Why is anyone calling this car nice, that is one of the most horrific front end/side skirt combos I have seen in a while. The only thing it has going for it is it is finished and all painted.

[green91]

looks better than a g35/350z but still not my cup of tea

[koukis14]

Sorry man but I think it is pretty damn ugly.

[Echonova]

Which automatically makes it better the 43.45% of the cars on this site...;)

[Schugg]

think your %'s a little low, probably 71.76%, good point though

[Schugg]

oh, but minus the hood scoops, front bumper and side skirts its nice. i like the color and the interior actually dont look to bad, atleast it was done right. unlike have the tards on this site who will just rip the plastic pieces out and rattle can them

[pethelizer]

cool your dad mods imports...

not a big fan of his taste though.

[IndianStig]

JDM rep lights, lil bit of a drop, h22a swap and boost!!!!!!!!!

[Stormhammer]

^^ his dad owns a 1988 Chrysler Conquest TSI... I'm sure hypnotoad remembers that one... since his ass looked at it at like 3am LOL... the car I wanted :(

Jason - you're taking the critiques pretty well :D how's your engine coming along?

Also keep in mind his dad is like... in his 40s or 50s? maybe 60s? :lmfao:

[SixSquared]

Nopi Nationals 2001 called... they want their 1st place prelude back.

Work looks like it was done decently well... but overall... Gong it and send it home.

[BuBBa DRiFT]

if the mesh was black, the scoops taken off and the exhaust didnt sound ricey (im assuming it is, simply because it is a honda) then that would be a decent ride, not my style, but decent. I've seen worse, I've seen better, but to no avail, its his style, as long as he does things right, it cant be THAT bad.

No ricy fart pipe on it. Just stock exhaust. The mesh is being painted black, he already painted the rear black, just had shoulder surgery so the rest is on hold.
As Stormhammer said, My Dad is 48 and the Black 88 ConQuest Tsi SHP that is for sale is his.

Here is the Conquest Tsi SHP for sale
