My old neighbor has a prelude and it look almost exactly like my front end... im wondering if i can get a kit for the prelude and put it on my car. Have anyone tried this before?

The only way to find out is to try it. I don't think it's ever done before. I think it should fit with little modifications. Afterall, someone here did successfully put an 89 Integra bumper on their Accord.

No no no no no no no no no no and no.
DO NOT do this on the rear. I don't know about the front.
I did it on the rear and the bumper is about three inches too wide.
It fits but it looks like ass. The front may fit. I reccomend going to a junkyard and trying it with the stock bumper before you spend any money.

prelude bumper will stick out alot farther, so your car will have this nice Jey Lenno Chin look.

I already know the back wouldn't fit but the front look really similar.

Have you tried it yet? They both should only come off with like 4-6 bolts that are underneath the bumper. If they do fit, this would open a world of body kits that should fit, right?
