Neon's BB2 Progression Thread

[neonxiii]

Hey everyone. Glad to have the first build on here for the 4th gen. I have owned this girl since july of 2006. She and I have been though numerous things together. I dont feel like getting into the past, goto preludepower for all that.

Here is how she stood at the end of the summer. Some of my favorite photos of her:






Things I have awaiting installation:

4 Slotted Rotors (VTEC Fronts)
2 Rear Hawk HPS Brake Pads
Kontrol Pro Coilovers
New front bumper and new front hood (Both awaiting paint)
Valve Cover Gasket
Black Graphite Impregnated Energy Suspension Bushings
Rosko Racing Cam Seal

Things I need:

2 Front Hawk HPS pads for VTEC Calipers
2 New VTEC front Calipers
2 New rear Calipers
Lip Kit (Spoon Front, Kaminari Sides and Rear)
Retrofitted Headlights??? (this is a lot of money.. and i really hate the light output of the JDM housing..)
New Wheels??? (again, tons of $$. id almost rather get these than spent 6 hundo on retrofits)

Misc things:

Kinetic Reworking Intercooler Pipe (to minimalize what i need to cut out of the bumper)
Full Bodywork + Paint (because of all the new parts im getting, i want the car to match color 100%)
Blake's Retune (sometime this spring)

I am almost out of the woods. I have a lot to think about. I am trying to get a more modern, and unique look with keeping the same feel of my previous setup. I really want 16" wheels in the future, though I have not decided on what they will be. The poll question is just to see how many people are new on this forum and have no idea about my build.

Thanks for looking. updates will be had

Man this is one of the sickest 4th gens I've seen so far!

You don't want to try the retro's yourself? Idk what it's like in the 4th gen housing, but my 5th gen one was pretty easy. I got all the supplies for $120 + the headlights. But again, Idk what it's gonna be like in your healight housing.

No fog lights? AND Do they sell a one-piece headlight for 4th gens?

Thank you! I can get a TSX retrofit done for $500, thats what I am probably going to end up doing.

Of course, Cant you see my JDM one pieces? One of the main reasons I bought the new bumper and am re-working the intercooler pipe is so the fogs will fit. You can tell in the pics that I had to really cut out a lot of that bumper and that included the fog light brackets. I have yet to see a Turbo 4th gen with an OEM front bumper and fogs, but thats why im trying to do it

Ahh, I meant to ask about a whole one-piece with the fog lights included...do they have those?

[BB2Keith]

Can haz?

Do want. Very very much.

What kind of numbers is she putting out?

This is a prime example of Prelude perfection.
