A custom deep green Honda Prelude with intricate silver engraved Japanese tattoo-style patterns in an underground garage.

A 2000 Honda Prelude (5th generation) fully customized with ornate engraved metal bodywork in the style of Takahiko Izawa. The car is finished in deep, rich forest green IZ METAL, with intricate silver-accented engraved scrollwork covering the entire body—hood, fenders, doors, trunk, and bumpers. The engraving features Japanese tattoo-style motifs: dragons, koi fish, sakura petals, swirling clouds, and waves, all integrated into flowing baroque scroll patterns. The metal surface has a dynamic contrast of polished and matte textures to create depth, with silver accent lighting softly illuminating the grooves and raised highlights of the engravings. The car sits low on deep-dish chrome wheels with a tucked, stance-style setup. Lighting is moody and cinematic—set in an underground garage with cool silver tones bouncing off the sculpted green bodywork. The Prelude appears as a work of mechanical art, aggressive yet elegant, like a hand-forged katana wrapped in scrolls. See more
