Wanna Trade Preludes? - Click HERE for Original Thread

Rich_A
Alright. I have a mechanically mint 1999 Prelude Base with 93,000kms on the clock. It has a full Mugen kit and Tokica Illumina / Tein S suspension.

Otherwise mostly stock except for stereo.

I BADLY want a White Prelude, 99 or newer. Anyone interested in trading let me know.

My car is a BC car, never seen winter before, totally rust free and good.

My car is Black btw - and unlike some mad tyte jdm warriors I don't believe in spray paint on a respectable car..

As far as getting a paintjob - repainting a black car in white costs a lot as is - using a nice pearl paint is even more money.

uhh.. you don't paint over the white.. you take it down to the metal/primer.. will all the black is gone..

That's usually how a Good Paint job is done and Will cost the $5000+ because of all the time it took... :dunno:

bump for the white prelude.:thumbup:

Okay. Now think. That's $5000 (lot of money for us non ballers) that I would like to avoid. Make sense ?

92_WhItE_H23
looks good any more shots?

Rich_A
ass-end - once again remember it now has a mugen spoiler on the rear.. not those 2 things (which btw are the base pieces from the old spoiler)

ya i can't understand why you don't get it painted then you can get a little different white and not have the same white every other guy with a 5th gen has...

1. because the same white every 5th gen has is already nice

2. 5000 + dollars does not justify a "slightly different white"

lol paint it, you can get a good paint job for around 3000..

he will be looking at more then 5 grand for a color change....and even more then that because its going to be Pearl White which is VERY expensive. almost 600 to repaint my front bumper..

brock
plus if you really want the car to look nice you have to replace the saskatchewan plates :lol:

it's never had any accidents in it's whole life. the only occurence of damage was when the last owner had it, someome took our the rear windshield .. that's obviously been replaced.

last week the dealership accidentally dinged my mugen bumper on their lift - it's being replaced and painted in 2 weeks.

I can get new pics then if you want.

What other kind of info do you want? It's mechanically perfect, just had timing belt/tensioner/plugs serviced. New Tokico/Tein suspension.

The body is good - there's a tiny ding or 2 that you really have to look for. Paint is good, just has the regular swirls here and there that black cars tend to get.

No rust. It was also treated by Rust Check to make sure it never does either.
