📆 What have you done to your Prelude today?

That's the Honda OEM spoiler, it is installed at your dealership if you buy one.

Yes! If they don’t have one or can’t get one… You can order the part and have it shipped to the dealer and they will put it on…labor cost of course

Has anyone put tint film on the rear window? If so, how dark?

I have 35% all around, and 55% in the windshield. Everything is great. I can see everything outback at night

Took an autumn group drive on a road that is closed for all but the summer months. A photographer went up first and caught a picture of each car heading up. Destination was an observatory in a 65 sq. mile lava field.

Mine was 30% on all windows, including the back....it does make it harder to see into the cargo area from outside, which is great!!

20% front windows, 50% wind shield, and 5% very back and the back corner windows. Ceramic on everything. Front is a little hard to see at night. I have to roll down the windows.. lol.. and not legal in California, but I live on the central coast and they don't care here (knock on wood). I did it mainly for privacy as I feel like you're living in a fishbowl without, and because it keeps the heat out.

not yet done...still "decision phase"..want to do some "coloring", but yet undecided between "soft", "sharp" and "'weird" ... any proposals ?
Colors are set ...blue (because of the existing blue accents), black and a bit red

 

[rolox9 8]

hmmmm....seems gona have to roll the dice... asked 3 people, got 5 opinions....or go with the designer proposed "driver age appropriate" more subtle design....

 

[GoZoner95 94]

#3. But you need to add an ’anime chick’ to the hood!

Of these three designs I would choose the top-left design. Honda designers specifically marketed the "Glider" theme for the Prelude design. The top-left has the most "flow" or "glider" theme to me. That top-left pattern looks like an aero or air-tunnel flow pattern.

Another idea might be subtle center or off-centered rally-stripes. Something subtle like a light matte silver center stripe with gloss white edges. Or something with a shadow effect.

 

[rolox9 8]

...top left is my curent fav too ...but maybe to "young" for a senior driver (...should i care ? )...had kind of "striopes" already with my Mazda 3 10 years ago, so time to try something different....

in the end...its just foil that can be removed if it looks too bad

I always liked the silver AC knobs from the regular Civic better than the plasticky black ones in the Prelude. So I modded them with some stainless steel covers. Inexpensive Chinese aftermarket parts, but well finished & nice to touch. Adds a bit of class to the interior IMO. Considering stainless steel caps for the tiny air vent joysticks, too ...

aggree .... link ?( ..if forum rules allow...) ...although ...chinese parts in a japanese car ....

Got mine on Ebay, but there are tons of similar ones - different colors and styles as well as sets which include covers for the air vent joysticks - all over the internet. (None of them are explicitely for the Prelude, but all sets for the latest gen Civic will fit.)

I would have preferred to swap them for the original chrome knobs from the Civic (they can be pulled out and reinstalled by hand), but those are not being sold separately in Germany. Didn't want to buy a whole new AC unit just for the knobs ...

 

[rolox9 8]

...thx...gona try the blue set ....
found someone selling from japan... even some cent cheaper ...

https://ebay.io/m/ntnPbV

but...all sets do not have a volume knob ring ...however...

@rolox Go with what makes you feel good everytime you would walk up to it. For me, when I had my LeMans Blue C6 Corvette, I stripped it up to match the Viper GTS, and got a huge smile on my face everytime I'd open the garage door!!
The Corvette 'purists' hated it, but I got so many positive comments from everyone else, (and mistaken identities) I didn't care!
