That's coming on really nicely, very sharp in Milano Red, can't recall seeing a 5G in Red before, (think it was a popular colour in the 4Gs)

Thanks it's getting there slowly, I think it's come along way in the year I've had it now. The colour is actually R-94 San Marino red, it's was only used on the 1997-98 models before they reverted back to Milano red. The only other red 5th gen's I've seen in persons have all been Milano red 2.0 litres.

Probably scrapped San Marino because it proved to be too resilient to sunshine... And Honda couldn't be having that!

Progress has been slow this year as I decided I wanted a new daily so my prelude budget went towards that then in May my wife decided we should move house so new daily and new house house hopefully next month the prelude budget is now zero!!

I have managed to pick up a few bits in last few months from members like mats, Aem intake and the honeycomb grill which has made a big difference to the front end.

Have taken the car to few local car meets and received some positive comments which is pleasing not yet come across another Prelude. I thought have Accord type R was exclusive but the prelude wins hands down for rarity round my way :lol:
