Gonna look killer when done, but if I was to buy a new sebion hood, I wouldn't paint it. Granted the car will probably look better all white, I'd have the OEM hood painted, and keep the bitch in your closet, or in a random spot in your room, I've been known to do that just so I didn't have to get rid of something I didn't want to..

thanks everyone.
i didnt import my car myself. it was imported by a shop in california.
sorry i cant help you anymore than that. best advice i can give is that it would be a lot easier to just go on the classifieds on honda-tech and search "rhd". there are hella rhd imported cars that are legalized and selling on h-t. most of them are tegs and civics but you would be surprised at how many there are.

Tell me how you like those mounts when it's done. I've been thinking of upgrading from stock but I don't want it to be too harsh.

ill let you know. they offer 3 or 4 different types. i got the least harsh out of the bunch which is refered to as their "track" mount kit. oem mounts are 60A and the ones i got are 75A. it also frees up a little engine bay room because deletes the front mount. from what ive read as far as reviews with preludes they say you can feel a little more vibration but that its a night and day difference and everyone seemed to really like them.
