yeah i got so many ideas for this car it's not even funny. i still have to do the subaru wrx/skyline/feels type blister fenders. i make all this stuff from scratch with fiberglass. then next would be the hood, then evo 8 wing, then paint it glacier pearl white with chrome flakes. then i will make projector headlamps with black housing out of some fiberglass and super heat molded plexiglass...well that's my theory...i hope it works...most likely it will. i've been looking for 97-99 prelude projectors with black housing or carbon fiber housing and mold those headlamps in, but i can't find them made anywhere. oh well, i will use two pairs of PIAA superwhite projector driving lights. then last but not least would be a full fiberglassed & painted interior with molded in I.C.E. (in-car electronics) like LCD screens, etc......oh yeah, a full built A20A3 engine from sean, maybe even the turbo too, but this car won't be for speed so that would make it impractical. counting the heavy audio stuff and the worry of speeding tickets, crashes, gas mileage, faster wear and tear with the turbo....i think going all-engine would be the way to go for me...maybe just bottle feed it should i have the "need for speed."

here's some of my concept cars....(try making a 3gee look like this! haha):

[NXRacer]

damn dude, that artwork is pretty freakin good.

i wonder what these headlights would look like on your car.

[AccordArizona89]

nx what are those from??!?!?

[NXRacer]

thats a good question. They were originally purchased as 4th gen one-piece headlights, but they're not quite right for that. Some people think they're ITR headlights, but they're the wrong shape for that too. I think they're Honda Vigor/Legend headlights maybe.

[ICEMAN707]

very nice! hmmm....yep, looks like vigor headlights to me. BTW is $480 for a complete 4 wheel SE-i brakes conversion a good deal or no? that includes the entire front and rear suspension knuckles for an 89 se-i honda accord.... the hubs, arms, rotors, backing plate, calipers, and e-brake cables, etc. and the se-i proportioning valve and master cylinder

[NXRacer]

you dont need the fronts, just the rears. there is no difference between the fronts. You also dont need the master cylinder. Just the proportioning valve. I was quoted $90 from a local junk yard for the rear setup but from what i've heard that is really cheap. I wouldnt pay over 2 bills for a complete rear disc setup.

[ICEMAN707]

well mine is an 87, so it has smaller front brake rotors than the 88-89....so i still need to do the fronts and get the proportioning valve and master cylinder right? anyways, here's more pics to see:

He y iceman

Where are you at?

Id like to see this car of yours. Do you drive it around at all?

[ICEMAN707]

i drive it daily through kissimmee to work. as much as i'd hate to, but it's the only car i got till i get a jeep or something. jeep wranglers are nice! esp. the ones with wider rims and flares. so i plan on getting one so i can garage my car after it's painted...take it out only for cruising and also work on the interior fiberglassing little by little and do the major upgrades like disc brake conversion, a fully built engine capable of No2, and 5 spd swap using the 84-87 Prelude's close-ratio tranny. that's my goal, along with custom tails, projector headlights, and side mirror signals.

[BITESIZE]

Dude, those big pictures blow monkey nuts, buy a good camera, then post some nice pictures of that beautiful ride!
