This pics looks sweet!

Thanks for the splatted pigeon pics, the missus is making sweet and sour chicken tonight and I've got that image of the leg sticking out under the bonnet in my head

I was pissing myself when I saw that leg hanging out the front of the car

Stupid pigeon

I do miss the car though, it gave me a year of trouble free driving. And it was the Prelude that bit me

Should have cable tied it somewhere as a memento

hardcore equivalent of furry dice.

I do like the spoilerless look and removal of the PRELUDE bumper bits too... been debating it a while now with mine, nice to see an example on a black Lude!

Trouble free driving is nice too! I was just checking my tyres the other day and realised in nearly the year I've had mine I haven't had to buy tyres or fix anything major or whatever. The only thing that has been an essential replacement for me was brake pads
