    Prelude Body Kit Compatibility

    I found some very sweet body kits for 88 preludes and i was wondering if the front bumper and back bumper were compatible because i already know the side skirts will not work with a 4 door. Keep in mind i plan on going to a professional body shop for installation for a proper fitting.

    the side skirts will not work with any 3g because all the wheel bases are the same. as for the rest, try the search button.

    worrying is like a rocking chair, it gives you something to do but gets you nowhere

    I saw a lude outside my house 1 day and I was noticing that the front fenders are different lengths than ours so I don't think it'll work unless you have an older lude kit. I'm going to hit the junkyard with a tapemeasurer hopefully this week, I'll get back to u.
    1 bumper I remember that fit width-wise was the Teg bumper, the 1st model that didn't have popups

    Offtopic: Hey Hondamanlxi I just luve your accord! Its awsome!!.

    As for the lude kit just do a search there was one guy on here who did a lude kit on a 3gee. He had to shorten the front bumper (Width wise) and he had to leingthen the rear bumper to reach the wheel well.

    It won't fit right, sorry guys. Some heavy modding would need to be done.

    i belive you can take the factory front bumper and fenders off a 2nd generation prelude and bolt them on, it might be interesting on a hatch. it would get rid of your corner markers and give you those wrap around lights plus fog light holes. if you did it on a sedan it would just look like a prelude with different lights
