You know what, i really dont know what happened and will never really find out. All i know that is i was driving home one night and it kinda had a smell burning smell, never thought anything of it cuz i was tired at had to get up at 7:00 for work..Flames firs shot out the engine bay and the rest was history, keep in mind this happened in 7 minutes!
Also forgot to mention i had 40 cds, dragon sunglasses and my hoody in there which i couldnt claim, just to piss me off some more.
Any guesses anyone? It was a 1 lady owner car with all records and all warranty work, it also had about 80 000 miles. The car was also a us spec car if that makes any difference.. |

| You can still seel the rear mud flaps and bumper cover.. likely all the stuff inside there.. You know those little fire extingushers (wow I can't spell).. ya its a good idea to carry one in your car.. even if its un moded... you never know when you will run into something like that.. on your car or someone elses.. I have one in my trunk |
|
|
| Nightstalker |
| the rear rims, trunk lid, and rear suspension and brake components still look ok to me.. you should be able to get 500+ for all the stuff. Go to honda.. a new perlude bumper cover is like 300+ likely.. sell it for a 100 inthe bargin finder.. |

|

| whats is left, factory intake, rear bumper cover, i tailight, 1 wheel and tire, 1 gound control coilover and eibach spring, jack set, a crankshaft, 10 lugs, kakimto muffler, rear brake, trunk lid are alright. i'll let the insurance company take evrything away, i'll bet they are already tring to sue me for fraud for this bs i bet soo ill not fuk with aything to do with this car.. |

Dealing with insurance must be tough. Especially when stuff like this happens...and because it's a prelude; Goodluck getting market value!
(BTW- I've got a 2000 prelude forsale hehe. Email me at: silverscale@hotmail.com if you're interested.) |

holy a blast from the past, thanks for bringing the thread back up... :o
Anyways for a update, i am getting full payment for my car(minus the piping for the exhaust, so knockoff $150). So on monday i am picking up my $23501.00 cheque and buying my new car, i thought this day would never come.
Toda, i never had any of my work done at PHAT, i only bought my muffler there. I do all the work by myself(minus welding on the muffler, thats beyond me B) ) |
