look in the "where can I find this" thread. someone may have already covered it. I'm pretty sure rsx wheels will bolt right up to her car since it's 5 lug already.

places like passwordjdm.com will have the headlights and foglights for her car as well. search and you'll get what you are looking for

RSX wheels will fit although I can't ay I'm a fan of how they look on Preludes. Angles are too sharp and they just look out of place (at least the old style ones). There are no JDM headlights for a 1997-2001 Prelude - we get basically the same ones as Japan (diffuser lines may be slightly different for US DOT but nothing really noticeable). JDM foglights have been discontinued for a few years IIRC so they now run ~$350 + shipping. They look good but the actual lighting is ****-poor, especially for $350+, so decide how much cosmetics are worth to you. Check Ebay as well as JDM Honda parts retailers. Robearracing.com has them, so does inlinefour.com. Only way you'll save $$ on these is to find good shipping rates so hit up Google.

as for pics, its worth $7 a year to belong to PreludeOnline.com. Lots of pics and I know for a fact that some pics of Preludes with RSX wheels were posted in the past month (sorry - don't have time to find them, copy, and host them today).

hope that answers everything

I actually saw a white lude dropped on 05 RSX wheels ( i think they were 05s, theyre kinda like the 5 spoke blade ones ) and i thought it looked good. Theyre a little big, but the lude pulled it off
