Hey guys. I really want the painted OEM side and rear skirts for my 5th gen. red Prelude(base). I know Honda discontinued these and the only ones I can find are blue sides and silver rear. Is there any way I can paint my black skirts to match my paint? I know this sounds ridiculous but maybe if I use clear coat or something. If not, could I get the blue sides and silver rear skirts and strip the paint off them and paint it to match my color? Just need to some advice on whether or not any of you think either of these ideas will work. Any help would be appreciated.

Take it to a paint shop or DIY with color matched paint.

 

Just get the side skirts, wet sand them with about 360 and primer them with flexable primer give it a day, wet sand it again with 400 and go a head and paint them

 

So it isn't possible to paint the black OEM skirts to match?

 

Im in the same situation, only I have the whole kit (black) my car is SMR anyone have an idea how much it costs to have it painted? Also how can I go about prepping it for paint so I can save a little $$?

 

yes you can just wet sand it and add a little primer and paint them

 

yes it's possible, I painted my oem sides to match the car, i'm just too lazy to list all the steps. there's diy somewhere on this board.

 

How did they turn out?

 

^I'm also curious as to how it came out. If anyone could give me a link to where the steps are for this that would be awesome. I wanna get this done, 'ludes look way better with painted skirts.

 

They came out pretty good actually, when i get home i do a write up on how i did it. looking at around.. $50-80 worth of painting material.
