I happen to think that the honeycomb grill is one of the best looking mods for the 5th gen 8-)

Prelude badge sets it off nicely :D

Your car beginning to look an awful lot like mine. Impeccable taste :lol:

Back to Standard

Wow, over a year since my last update :shock:

As many of you may remember, I acquired a new Lude a good few months ago, so ive been slowly returning my SiR to standard. So I thought I would update my thread to show where its at.

Interior - seats, door cards, stereo and window switch surrounds replaced

Managed to pick up a set of UKDM clocks off a mate who bought a Prelude for the engine to put in his accord, the mileage was very close to my JDM clocks once converted from kilometres to miles 8-) the UK clocks showed just over 500 miles more. So I decided to swap them over

So after 17 years, the Lude is showing signs of rust. Passenger rear arch -

rest of the arch - 8-)

Drivers side rear arch -

Boot lock

Stonechips on the bonnet :roll:

Not bad for 17 years old ;) However, this happened some time back, courtesy of a neighbour who wasn't watching where they were reversing :x

I was looking for a replacement bumper for a while after it happened, but eventually gave up and learned to live with the scars :(

You will probably have noticed in the pics that ive replaced my penta alloys with sawblades, and the honeycombe grill and halo headlights for standard parts. So the Lude now looks like this -

So that's pretty much where im at now, but when I get a bit of spare time I'll be returning the suspension back to standard, and also the engine bay.
