Pics Of My New Ride

Ok, so in my opinion my car isn't pic worthy right now but I figured screw it.
She's work in progress. The body work isn't done yet. Still needs to be smoothed out and then bring the car in for paint. Should be done in the next little bit I hope.









It's an 89 Prelude Si 4WS. Fully loaded. I've got the orginal factory rims but they've seen better days. The rims on it are 93 GS-Rs. I've painted the rears gun metal but need to do the fronts still.
I've put a Teg shift **** on it, installed some better 6.5" speakers up front, nothing crazy. I do have plans for the car.

Whatta guys think?

EDIT: Stupid we-todd...grrrr...

My buddy has a 90 Prelude all done up, and he is one of the first guys I've ever met in the tuner scene back in 92. He had all the good stuff like 5Zigen, Jackson Racing and Fittipaldi wheels before Ractive or Motegi was even an option. His ride has close to 300K and it still looks mint. That ride brings back lots of memories.

Good Luck on the project
