Monthly Archives: November 2011

From the Spoon brake calipers to the type-s wing, down to the JDM cup holder, everything is authentic JDM. Justin’s JDM Prelude was just featured in the November issue of Honda Tuning, and for good reason! Chances are, if it’s rare or JDM, it’s on this car.

We couldn’t help but notice the subtle mods that only your true Prelude nut would notice. Things such as the type-s body panels and spoiler, JDM gunmetal grill and of course the SiR red interior. You have to admire mods that won’t be noticed by the majority, a true fan of the BB6.

In a twist of fate, a hail storm put a dent (or many) in his plans. Luckily Justin’s insurance company took care of him and gave him enough money to fix and repaint his entire car (with the new JDM body panels) Grand Prix White.

Next comes the custom parts such as the carbon fiber door sills and armrest, Versace fabric covered headliner as well as TSX projector retrofits. Attention to detail makes this Prelude stand above the rest as one of the best we’ve ever seen.

Remember Tae’s RHD Prelude? Well he’s back and this time with a full Canibeat feature! You know you are doing something right when you land on the homepage of Canibeat.

From the article we find out that the build has been slowly pieced together over the last four years and is Tae’s first car! “Originally his Prelude was a bit “riced out” and looked like it was sponsored by Auto Zone but luckily he came to his senses and started turning his BB6 into the classy machine it currently is.” Canibeat couldn’t have said it any better, “Just BBeing Proper.”

As promised, we just finished removing the majority of the ads on our website! We have already noticed that this makes our site blazing fast, hope it works better for all you guys as well. We also made hundreds of code tweaks that should make things smoother. As requested, we made our checkout process even easier, removing unnecessary steps.

Next we added a completely new column called “Store Links.” Before it was impossible to go directly to say, the Exterior Parts section of our store. Now, no matter what page you are on, you can go directly to whichever parts page you’d like (and not have to see t-mobile ads :)).

As always, please report any bugs or anything that doesn’t work properly that you may find. Enjoy!
