Renzos 5th Gen...

[renzokukenj]

Hey guys,

Havent really been on that much lately, been busy with work and what not..

Anyways, always have been putting it off, but now here is my progress thread..

So I've had the car for about a year now, had the car at 148,000kms, the car was badly treated by the first owner, and pretty much became a lemon when I got to it...

First few months went by and it was a very nice car. Had a little shitty radio from Japan that didnt work at all, and the owner took all the speakers out and installed some stupid speakers from what looked like a car from 1930's, they were really worn out paper things..

Anyways,

On the car currently...

White Honda 5th gen Prelude
- Lip kit
- Shitty gutter rashed rims (been meaning to change)
- Magnaflow muffler
- White leather interior
- 6.5 splits (Type Rs)
- Kevlar 6x9's
- 2 10in Jaycar subs reversed mounted
- Jaycar bluetooth double din deck
- White neon in the boot where the original light fitting was
- Blue footwell neons connected to the dome light (fading lights were a priority haha)
- Debadged PRELUDE badges and replaced RENZO badges
- CAI
- HID lights for hi beams
- LED parker lights

A few things happened after I bought the car, the whole year I have been saving for other things and the car has been looking like shit since I havent had the money to repair/replace anything that has happened, the worse thing was the paint work on the car..

First I replaced the original H badges with large orange H badges, and had them on for a good 2 months.

One day I was driving in the country, and had a run in with a kangaroo. Swerved and hit a ditch, leaving my front bumper a mess. Seeming it was just the paint that came off, I just left it.

Then one night some guys thought it would be awesome to take them, and to my misfortune, they ripped them off. So I replaced the ugly holes with the old badges. But unfortunately, I had scratch marks on the car.

Another month later, some kids on a highway thought it would be fully sick to put a brick in the middle of the road and I ran over it, and it flicked up and dented my body work.

Now its still going, forunately the RENZO badges are still inplace, but still waiting for my tax return to get some work into it.

THINGS TO COME
+ New tinting
+ New rims
+ New paint job (Thinking of staying white or maybe going to midnight purple)
+ VTEC Conversion
+ Sunroof installation
+ Full exhaust system

Im currently at work, will post pics when I get home.

You need to invest in a set of personlised "RENZO" plates as well - Black on white. Get some pics up too! I wanna see this white interior and the jaycar deck. BTW what lip kit you rolling with?

[renzokukenj]

Nah mate, too much RENZO on the car... Me and my mates had a breakdance crew too, but after a while and getting married we sorta stopped, so I was going to get some plates with LOSTKATZ on it... and on the sides put a LK with the K backwards...

Pics up soon.

[renzokukenj]

My camera isnt working at the moment so I'll take some pics tomorrow of the interior, and of the LED lights too.

clean ride bud! the renzo badge is also very creative. will be keeping posted on this baby .

The yellow H off an S2K is a nice subtle touch.

[renzokukenj]

..Until it got stolen.. ahaha.. thanks though, I dont think I will put any more on.. Though I did have a fantastic idea of connecting 2 small push sensitive switches behind the badges, so if someone messed around with them, the car alarm went off. Dont have enough time to think it through properly and install them though haha

[MattR]

Wanna see pics of interior please loving the custom badges though, very unique

[renzokukenj]

Just for you MattR, when I get home I shall take a few schnaps.. My camera should be all good today, waiting for the bro in law to give me the heads up that its fixed.

[Nonricerprelude]

door switch light sensor thingo behind the badge would set the alarm off after they rip it off

[MattR]

thanks renzo would be good to see what you've done as i'm in the process of personallising inside

[renzokukenj]

Heres the long awaited pics.


Orochimaru hangs out in my car with me.




Blue footwell neons.



New shiz for keychain.

Is the interior really black/white? Would be a pain to keep clean ><
Or is it creme colour?

[renzokukenj]

it really is! and it is terrible.. the worst thing is, when i bought the car, the car salesmen said that there was a few scuff marks on the drivers side where the previous owner scuffed their shoes or whatever... turns out they took the paint off >_>

only a little but its still a pain in the arse to get the right color paint.

but, all in all its a fantastic color, in all the preludes ive found, especially SI versions, im the only one with that color scheme.

might clean out the boot tonight to show you the fantastic mod that everyone with a 5th gen sick of a shitty boot light would be interested in.
