I only asked how much you bought it for because I thought the advert price was more than fair for what your selling now

That's exactly the way I was thinking about it too. :lol:
If I put it back to standard and sold the charger and suspension separately I'd still have a low mileage h22a8 prelude to sell.

I really don't want to go down that route though. Hopefully I can sell it as it is. :)

problem is you never get the value of the car and all the bits you have added to it (well very seldom) you would get a premium over and above the relative value of the standard vehicle.
I and every other lude owner want the values to go up so I hope you get a lot for it but we all live in the real world and cars like ours are niche and as such there is a small pool of buyers.

Good luck though buddy

I'd love to take it off you hands mate but I pretty skint this year, I'd realistically only want it for the blower anyway. If you do decide to separate it I may be interested.

Spotted these and couldn't resist getting them despite the car being for sale.

I will hopefully get them fitted before japfest on Sunday.

From a jdm prelude for sale on ebay. The car didn't sell so I asked if they would remove and sell the wind deflectors seperately.

Will keep you in mind if I take them off before the car goes. If it goes! :lol:
