Does anybody have pics of an S13 in electron blue (from prelude). Click the link below for a pic of what color I am talking about. I have seen an S14 in that color but never an S13, anyone got pics, or can do a good photoshop of it.

No... I'm pretty sure it came out only in 2k or 2k1.

The first use of that color by Honda that I know of was on the Civic Si (99-00). &nbsp;On the civic, it's called Electron Blue Pearl or EBP for short. &nbsp;It was so popular on the Si that Honda used it on the Prelude as well. &nbsp;They changed the color a tiny amount and gave it a different name... but it's still basically EBP... just a lighter shade of it. &nbsp;You'll also find the color on their Sport Ute... the CRV. &nbsp;However, I think the CRV doesn't have the Pearl layer in the paint (I could be wrong... but it looks slightly different).

A lot of people make those. I know C-West makes em, but they might be expensive considering its a Japanese based company. You should try looking on http://www.takakaira.com or AutoImaging (Project D) (http://www.autoimaging.com)

A couple of people on this board have em.

::sigh:: just hoping to buy one....less work on my part, i remember seeing one on ebay before i think it sold for about 35.00 and i let it go because i thought i could find one cheaper...but you are right they definitely cant be all that hard to make.......does anyone know if it even makes any difference to flow that air through there to your intake?

Yes it does, on a lot of drag cars they cut holes in the haeadlights to get more air to the intake. Plus the air outside the car is going to be cooler than the air under the hood (since the engine heats the air up under the hood)
