Help Needed With Front Strut Brace Fitment

It's more the Americans blindly limiting their market by not considering other DM's have different engine bay layouts

I am pretty sure that even my Spoon brace on my 4th gen does not go in without some bending of brackets. I think that Nuspeed braces go on without modification though, as they attach almost vertically.

Agreed, but but when the ad says fits all Preludes 92-96 you'd think it would go straight on, well at least I would, perhaps I'm just expecting to much from bolt on parts makers to actually do something properly

I was thinking of one of these at some point, which look to me that they will bolt straight on...

Since that attaches vertically there should be less of a chance that it will foul on one of the brackets. Is that the UltraRacing one?

The Neuspeed one might fit as well

Nice, shame it is over £100 though.

Its a DD Racing one, at least that's the seller, sounds like it may be an UR copy ?

It could be as there is reportedly a lot of fake UR stuff around.

Interestingly, UR UK don't even list one for the Prelude on their site
