My first 5th gen Prelude
Well finally I got a 1999 Prelude base. Its all stock but I just need a few things to make it complete. Taking it off the car dolly in the pitch black and pouring rain the front bumper got caught on the dolly and shredded in half. GRRRRR! I also found that there is no a/c condenser. The wheels on it are some goof ball 17's that i plan to swap out asap. The air bags are deployed in the car also! I gave it a thorough inspection to find out why they went off. The only damage is the lower support under where the a/c condenser should be. the radiator is fine, the front of the motor is fine. It looks just like somebody possibly drove it off a drop off. Oh well I plan to fix her up really nice after I get all those things I want to get the SH lip kit or the WW lip kit. I would like to find either some SH wheels or some 16" black slipstreams. Lastly I want to slam it with some nice suspension components with adjustable camber kits front and rear. I just wanted to make a post about my new BB6 since I have wanted one for so long. I was also wondering how I get out of trial user mode so i can post in classifieds?

Congrats on the new car. If you want oem parts you can always find them on ebay or Car-part.com for junkyard parts.
You have to wait for a certain period to get out of trial mode.

SH lip kit? IIRC, the SH has the same except skirts and rear lip as the base model, only painted. As for the "goof-ball" 17s, get a picture and as much info as you can and eBay those *****. i.e. width, offset, weight, brand, etc.
Oh and if I find some wheels I like, I'll be selling my SH rims.
