Man I love your car. I started reading your thread last year in June. Shortly after that (September) I bought a prelude of my own. Mine is the 91 model, and no 4ws. Truly inspirational build.
Hello friends, it's been a while, but now it's sunny so it's car time again.
You may remember this ingenious yet horrendous yet airtight bodge:
I decided it was time to sort it properly, so I got one of these:
And some of these:
And did this messyAF but solid couple of welds:
Then I decided my boot build wasn't good enough, so I spent a day in absolute misery and severe pain chiseling off this wankycuntshitbollocks sound insulation:
Then stripped the boot:
So that I could do this:
Yay, it's yellow. I know right.
Then I failed the MOT because the battery was apparently insecurely fastened because it was sitting on the back seat, who'd have thought eh? So I had to screw it into the spare wheel thingy in the middle for the time being:
But as much as I like the yellow stripped out yo look, I needed some bass to keep me awake on my early morning drive to work, so went to B&Q, to find it had closed down, but was being refitted, and there was a load of MDF outside. So after a quick chat with the lovely shopfitter dudes, i walked away with 2 6x4 sheets of the henchest MDF if ever freaking seen. For free
Then after lots and lots of measuring and cutting and measuring and cutting and more measuring, I made this heavy as balls fitted box:
It's a bit over-engineered for the sub I'm using at the mo, but now I can upgrade to a nice big powerful dealeo without having to worry about the box flexing to pieces.
I think I might do another one on the other side then join them with a brace or summat like that, what do you guys think?
I just "discovered" this topic today as I am on the hunt on buying a prelude 3g myself and I have to say I love the way yours turned out. The only thing I would change would be the bottom body tone, I would swap that grey to and light brown, coffee&milk-like
Congrats again, your build has made me want to own a prelude 3g even more !
by the way, you may want to check this topic ( and forum) if you haven't already. I'm drolling at every piece of good information I find here, there are also some very nice builds, mostly us/canada based

Sorry, not been on here in ages!
But yes I was actually looking for a pale olive-green sort of colour, rather than the grey, but there's not a massive selection of decent quality wraps. Most of them are horrendous chrome dealeos, or matte colours.
