    Default Dad got his Prelude finished Interior Pics

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    RICE

    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.

    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?

    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?

    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.
    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.

    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...

    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

    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.
