Ah Newkid! Good to see you back :) Nice car too. I was thinking about 5th's last night (after looking at a 2nd) and I wonder how much work it would be to add pop-ups to a 5th? Although I know it wouldn't be to everyone's taste.

Cheers guys. Its good to be back. Dave have to admit thought it was less likely you would be in a 5th but then yours is rather special.

Got round to taking some pics of the car after a quick wash, hoping to get the underside of the car done in the next few days while the weather is better then a good polish and wax.

Ill start of with the few bits that need a little bit attention.

This is the bit around the bootlock, seems to be a 5th gen problem

Image

Small scuff on the front bumper

Image

Small crack in the rear bumper

Image

Now onto the good bits, the arches

Drivers rear

Image

Passenger rear

Image

Drivers front

Image

Passenger front

Image

Couple of pics showing that the interior is practically like new

Drivers seat, about 98% as clean as when it was new

Image

Even the chrome on the handbrake and gear is 100% perfect

Image

Fitted my old trusty stereo, I've left the stickerbombing in as its kind of grown on me

Image

An a couple of the car how it stands

I wasn't a fan of sticker bombing on a Prelude but that looks well done and looks kind of cool. Keep it..

Those arches looks clean. Just like mine ;) :hurr:
