    Prelude wheelnuts fit 6th gen 4-stud?

    As ***le really just a quick question. I can get a set of alloy wheel caps but the wheel nuts I have extrude too far out. Just wondering if I can get the caps (that came from a breaking Prelude), will the nuts from that car fit on the studs of the Accord aswell?

    Which spoiler

    IIRC, most of these are basically just rolled up rubber and just cut to length (I even heard horror stories that people have been buying nothing more than semi-ridgid rubber door seals!). It's going to be a pain in the arse to paint on rubber too since it will just end up flaking off...

    Brake Upgrades

    Were they used on EBC discs? Was it a smooth disc or drilled?

    Brake Upgrades

    Really? Are you sure they wern't fakes or wrongly installed? They have excellent write-ups in the mags.

    Brake Upgrades

    You can use Accord Type R Brakes and pads on a CL7? Personally I wouldn't mix old with new (well I suppose you could get NOS ones).

    Rear ended, what to do next ?

    IDK what else to suggest, I hope it works out in the end though (or atleast better than it has for me). Best of luck for you anyway and i'm glad you didn't take her for a ride like a guy did for me (brake falure, though admittedly my fault).

    Brake Upgrades

    I have no idea, i'd just get decent branded OEM discs and pads, you can't go far wrong. The Accord's are one of the best stopping cars i'm told and if it's anything like my 6th gen, all you need is decent OEM's. Brembo, EBC, Mintex, they are all meant to provide really good stock stopping power...

    Rear ended, what to do next ?

    Have you thought to perhaps cut out the middle man and just take the car in and send her a copy of the bill? If it can be done outside on both partys then there's nothing lost. That way yuo both keep your clean slates. I'd give her a call and discuss the options.

    Brake Upgrades

    If you get drilled or grooved discs you can wave goodbye to pads on a regular basis since they just eat through them. Personally I would only do that to real performance stuff and instead of ggoing mad, get yourself a nice set of Brembo's and pads. You could go down the EBC colour pads route and...

    Rear ended, what to do next ?

    Well that's good news mate. I would strongly advise that you get her address just in case or at the very least a landline. Some kind of fixed abode of contact anyway... I ***ume your insurance knows of the incident already?

    Rear ended, what to do next ?

    The damage seemes to be minimal which is good but if she has given you false details, you need to report that. The numberplate should be able to get traced so she should be able to be found pretty easy. Trouble is you got to prove she did the damage and the damage to both cars is so light, that...

    How to clean Airbag residue off windscreen?

    Failing thinner, WD-40 might work. After that use Windolene to remove smears. .

    How low would you go?

    Apex are meant to be pretty good i'm told. Might be worth looking at reviews online from them to gage what kind of ride you are likely to get. Apex not to be confused with APEXi ofcourse.

    How low would you go?

    20mm - 3mm0 is more than enough, especially if fitting 16" or above i'd say. Anything more and it will be a big compromise in ride and handeling can suffer alot too (basically what frenchy said in a nutshell).

    Wheeler Dealers - New Series

    I love Wheeler Dealers. Edd is a wizzard, no question. They sometimes do questionable things but 99% of the time, they really make the cars look fantastic. Would be fab if they ever did an NSX or something else Honda.

    Airbox location.

    When my airbox wasn't sat correctly, I got an engine warning light. So for this reason, I would try and keep it as factory and just stick a decent quality filter inside.

    Type-R headlights on 1.8 S?

    I think I will leave it if that's the case. I would have no idea how I could wire it up with the sensor aswell. Thanks anyway guys, I was going to jump in mindlessly so I am glad I asked!
