Default Busabos77's STORY OF MY LUDE

It was Aug 27, 2009 When I got her looking like this...














First thing I got her were the carbon fiber trimmings:








I got a CLARION NX409 head unit...








Then came the shipment of the Greddy EVO2 Catback:









SEPTEMBER 2009

I decided to get some cosmetic stuff for the engine... Mugen Oil and Radiator Caps...






Then I repainted my valve cover to wrinkle red... (I lost the photos) = FAIL!

OCTOBER 2009

It was time to buy all the parts for the body work and painting...

DEPO TURN SIGNALS:


FOGLIGHTS WITH SWITCH AND HARNESS:


DEPO HEADLIGHTS:


NEW OEM TAIL LIGHTS:


HID BULBS AND BALLASTS FOR HEADLIGHT AND FOGS:





And the MUGEN rep front bumper, side skirts, rear valances and wing...








NOVEMBER 2009

After completing the parts... Off to the Body Shop!!!












I got some Brembo Cross Drilled Rotors, H&R Race Springs, Bilstein Sport Shocks and a bunch of OEM Suspension stuff... ( I lost the photos) = FAIL!


But this is what she looked like when the body work, the suspension and the rotors were installed!











Overall... I am very pleased.... Sorry about the blurry photos!

APRIL 2010

I am one of those people who cannot afford to buy the red interior.. hehehe I just cant bear the fact that its soooo expensive for 13 year old red interior stuff... So me, with the help of JRD250 and secondchance started painting my dash and wrapped my door panels... and the center console.. plans for the seats will be coming in shortly...




















JUNE 2010

Bought AEM V2 Cold Air Intake to replace my Injen one...

I also decided to take some photos of the lude after the Far North East meet yesterday... The meet was fun and I got to know a lot of prelude enthusiasts... All of them were very nice and friendly... Anyways, here are the photos... Thanks to all of you guys that helped me get this far. Enjoy!!!




















OCTOBER 2010

Went to Albany to visit my cousins and had a little photoshoot! Enjoy!!!











Winter was coming so I had to tuck her in the garage...

Installed JDM visors.... Car is a little bit dirty since it rained 2 days ago...









And swapped hoods with scndchnce since he needed a new one that has no rust (so he got mine) and I need a hood installed to drive to Rhode Island to pick up a carbon fiber hood tom... I will just have to drive tom with this hood so that I dont get pulled over!

That's quite the impressive car. My only complaint would be with the Mugen badges for the replica body kit. But, overall the car looks good.

First of all, I love a Shiny black Prelude. 2nd I think that the cleanest and classy most thought out prelude I've ever seen. I think the interior came out flawless! Nothing I would change at all, and I know she's a beast to drive!! Excellent!!
