Default pics of the new whip (bb6)

I got this car a few months back. It didn't have a motor and the tranny was bad. So pretty much a clean rolling chassy. I order a h22a from h motors online and bought a low mileage transmission from a honda auto salvage locally. So basically i just got the car running and got bored at work and decide to take some pics as it sits now...









(Update)FOR EVERYONE HATING ON THE SMOKED TAILLIGHTS AND KHAKI RIMS... GOOD NEWS.. AS IT SITS NOW!






stayed tuned more to come

I like Prelude! Lip kit, JDM fog, HID retrofit in future? Maybe? HID in 5th gen stock housing = NO, NO (too much glare). You want my opinion? I would just leave the tail light stock red and white, looks a lot better. And the windshield upper tin (banner??) doesn't look good. Good luck!
