Resurrected Rides (2024) s01e07 Episode Script
Prelude
1
You know what I love
about our garage crew?
They have passion.
Saul and Oscar work so hard to make sure
every detail of our builds are on point.
Lacey won't let anything roll out
that door until it's running perfectly.
And Nelson and Don are passionate
about their weird little gadgets.
And each other.
Even Shayna is passionate about her art.
And napping.
And that's why I like Aaron.
Hey.
He is definitely a man of passion.
Hey! Hey!
Even with a broken-down car,
baby, we got this.
He's just a ball of energy, full of joy.
He's passionate
about his girlfriend, Jacqueline.
She's amazing. She completes me.
She's my other half.
He's passionate about the students
in his dance classes.
Aaron has a very big heart,
especially for the ones that are in need.
I work with
all different types of people.
The main thing is really
about expressing yourself,
you know, with movement.
And he's even really passionate
about his busted-up 2001 Honda Prelude.
Maybe some, like,
new interior. Like Oh.
Come on, that's my baby right there.
It's a little dusty, but that's my baby.
AC's still not working.
So when Jacqueline sent in
a submission video
With money,
it's just a little tight,
but no matter what,
as long as we keep going, we'll be good.
We got this.
asking us to help Aaron out.
He brings joy to everybody
Yeah!
and he needs his car
to bring him joy as well.
You know I had to do it.
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
Yo, so right now we are
outside Aaron's dance studio.
He's in there teaching.
All right. Now, if you've been watching
the season so far,
you know we do a lot of ambushes.
You know what I'm saying?
I've done fun ones.
We got your ass!
Dumb ones.
Let's do this. Stay low. Stay low.
Ones that don't go well.
Don't smell my butt.
Now I'm about to do none.
Why? Because we've run out
of ideas completely.
Anyway, let's go.
I'mma tell him
he's getting his ride resurrected.
Hey, Aaron! You are my sup
What's up, boy? What's up, Aaron?
Oh my God!
What's up, man?
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
What are y'all doing?
Dude, this is crazy.
Hey, man. That's crazy
that you reacted like that.
What do you do
when you get paid? Like this
That was hard, bruh.
-How you doing, man? You good?
-Yo, I'm doing amazing.
I'm not liking that car outside.
That looks like trash.
Yeah. That's another story right there.
All right, man.
Let's take a look at this car.
-How long have you had this?
-I've had this for a little over a year.
-Uh-huh.
-It's been my baby.
I'm glad it's not a real baby
'cause I'd call Child Protective Services.
You ain't got a R my boy. It's a "Pelude."
Exactly, bro.
Bro, what is this?
It look like a marshmallow man
wiped his ass all along your car.
-What happened here?
-I came in the next morning and had this.
I just feel like a man
with the ashiest ass was just like,
"I don't like him or his music."
Um, I never seen a car
with puzzle pieces before.
Why's this just hanging in here?
Oh, but
That ain't supposed to be that.
Is that storage, my boy?
Could you imagine the hottest summer days?
No music. No AC.
I mean, it's a lot
that I'm dealing with this car.
You asked me if I can imagine,
and I cannot.
I would rather walk.
But because I'm on the show,
I do have to drive it right now.
So where are your keys?
Take care of it now.
If I don't, what the hell's gonna happen?
Crashing this would be helping you.
-Get in the car. I ain't driving alone!
-Oh, I'm coming with you?
- Yeah.
- Okay, let's go.
If I die in this thing,
you die in this thing.
Oh shoot. Okay.
Let's get it, baby!
This feels like an old mattress.
It's a very shaky ride. Not smooth at all.
This is a very low car too.
I didn't realize how low it was.
I feel like I'm on a hoverboard.
So you like to teach kids, man.
Tell me more about that, bro.
Yeah, man. Dance is my life.
I like to inspire people the right ways.
You know, I get to see people grow
and elevate in their personal lives.
That's great, man.
Those are life-changing things
that you bring to somebody's life.
-But you know what's really funny, Chris?
-What?
When I pull up in this car,
you could just imagine the jokes
that they be, uh, putting on me, bro.
I can imagine them
because I'm thinking of them as we drive.
This is all I got.
This is like my baby.
But it's not something
that technically I can be proud of.
So Jacqueline's birthday is next weekend,
and I was gonna take her
on a special road trip.
But I mean, honestly,
I don't really have the funds, man,
to upgrade it the way I want.
What kind of things
would you want done to the car, man?
I feel like I have a big personality.
I love colors
-Right.
-I love shines. Obviously, I love music.
Even just having a radio in here
would be freaking amazing, right?
But I don't even know what's gonna happen.
Look, hopefully you don't get
too wild and crazy
and, you know, go too far, but
Nah, man, we never go too far.
You know, I appreciate
your positive energy, man.
You work hard. You care about the people.
I'm a huge fan of that, man,
and you deserve to be in a car
where you ain't got to use
pieces of the car to fan yourself.
So look, I'm gonna drop you back off
at the dance studio,
and I'll have it back in time for you
to take your girl on that birthday trip.
Dude, I am so overly excited.
I can tell, man.
All day, every day, day, day ♪
All day, everyday, day, every day ♪
My garage team's been working
around the clock, 24/7,
resurrecting your rides.
You know what they say.
"The more the merrier."
Especially when it comes
to busted old cars.
- We got another one.
- 'Kay.
- Oh my God.
- Oh man.
-Oh no. Already?
-What the hell is this?
Oh my God.
Garage team, assemble!
What's up?
It's a Prelude or a Pelude,
if you will, because there's no R.
It's pretty bad. I know y'all have seen
the submission video.
The dude is a big personality.
Y'all take a look at it.
Take it all in.
What did he hit on the side here?
-He hit a ghost ass.
-"Ghost ass"?
And it just rolled alongside it.
What do y'all think?
I'm a Honda guy.
There's plenty of modifications
that you can do to it, you know?
I'm thinking maybe like a Type R build.
Tell 'em what the Type R is, Oscar.
So Honda called
all its race models Type R.
So usually, it would come with
a little bit more performance motor,
a little bit more lightweight,
and red and black theme on the interior.
They have
the Integra Type R, the Civic Type R,
but they never made the Prelude Type R.
So that could be an idea right there.
What do you think, Saul?
I mean, I think it'd look good,
something loud.
I know I'll get a lot of heat for this,
but what about
Lamborghini doors on this thing?
-You know, put some
-Oh jeez.
- That's kind of fire.
- That's gonna be a lot of work.
Hey, that's part of the It goes with it.
You know what I mean?
That would be crazy looking.
If we're gonna go Type R,
let's go crazy with it.
I mean, obviously,
he's a very loud and bright person,
and I've had this comic book-inspired look
I've wanted to try.
That would be super cool to do on this.
There's paint markers.
There's airbrushing involved.
Don, you look a little confused.
Don't worry. I'll show you a test.
It's fully custom, so I'm all about it.
If there's any person that'd drive
a car that looks like a tie-dye shirt,
it'd be this dude.
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
And I promise you that, okay?
So that sounds amazing.
So he's a dancer,
and obviously he's gonna need
a new sound system.
Since we're going for loud
and kind of wild, D,
you and I will partner up because I need
You have this special thing
that I can't do.
I want it to be well done, techy, cool,
but be a little stupid.
And the stupid is where I need your help.
Yeah, that's exactly right.
Stupid is where we need Don.
But the good stupid.
Something's got to do Whoop, whoop.
Exactly. That, see?
That's the stupid I need.
Not only will we get
a proper sound system installed up front,
but we'll redo the entire trunk
and maybe a little bit of the back seat
to hold some awesome stereo equipment,
DJ equipment, some kind of lighting.
Open the trunk
and have a disco ball come out.
And when it comes up, then it hangs from
-Yeah.
-If y'all could do that, that'd be tight.
If you guys get a disco ball,
I'm gonna get it and just Boom!
Don't even get me started on your little
whizz-bangs if you want a disco ball.
-A disco ball isn't realistic.
-How?
Is your pizza shooter realistic?
-Hey. The pizza shooter was legendary!
-Legendary!
-Donnie, let's hit it.
-Yo!
Fire in the hole, baby!
It works.
That is That is so dumb.
It was absolutely necessary.
He's gonna need that
when the Foot Clan comes.
- Yes!
- He's a dancer.
You see what's going on, y'all?
I don't know if I brought people together
or made people new enemies.
That's so stupid.
And I haven't told them I promised
Aaron they'd be done in a week.
Either way
car's getting done,
and someone's getting hurt.
Getting back to the basics ♪
Basics, basics ♪
Bring it back to the basics ♪
If they still can ♪
Get it right now, get it good ♪
Get it right now, get it good ♪
Hold on.
Open.
Fire in the hole.
Let's go ♪
With Lamborghini doors
Got it?
everything hinges on the hinges.
Put it right behind you.
They have to be
specially engineered,
not just to swing the door up vertically,
but also hold it there safely,
so it doesn't end up snapping off
or tipping over later.
That door's kind of heavy like
But I guess this thing'll
be able to withstand it.
-Oh, yeah.
-Oh, yeah. I can't
That shock.
Look at the size of that shock.
That's beefy. It should be fine.
Yeah.
One cool thing is that
this gives you a lot of adjustability.
This has up-and-down function.
You can adjust.
- Yeah.
- You know?
I mean, you can definitely say that this
is definitely more of a complex hinge
because, initially,
you just have these two hinges here.
Now you have this whole system
that's gonna make everything pivot.
Oh, we are way off.
This is a big problem.
This hinge is supposed to sit flush
against the fender apron.
And because this thing has
some extrusions coming out of it,
it's not letting it sit flush.
That's a problem
we'll have to figure it out.
Nelson!
Holy . Dude!
- What are you doing?
- We're making a fabrication station.
-What are you doing with a pallet jack?
-I gotta move your desk.
-You're not moving my desk.
-Come on. Hop on the train.
- There's no train.
- I want you closer to me.
You're seriously moving my table.
This is literally off the ground.
Are you nuts?
Bye.
Okay, okay, okay.
Hold on, hold on, hold on.
Aw, are you guys having
a moment right now?
Yeah, he said he wants
to come move in with me.
-We're doing this together as a team.
-That's really cute.
I'm gonna park you next to me.
Ooh, this is scary.
Right
Jesus.
-Oh God.
-Let's do it!
- Time to rock. You just made my day.
- Your hands are filthy.
Against my better judgment,
I'm teaming up with Don
to design, fabricate, and install
a custom DJ setup in Aaron's trunk,
all routed through a kick-ass sound system
surrounded by custom-lit infinity mirrors
and supported by
a one-of-a-kind retractable platform
that allows the whole party to be stashed
in the trunk when Aaron is driving.
It may not be a disco ball,
but it's close enough.
This'll be interesting. It really will.
We'll see where brute force and
the elegance of what I do come together.
-You and me, best friends.
-Mmm, nope.
Best friend and teammate.
Also no.
You know what we need?
We need our montage song.
No!
We are, we are
The perfect team, you know ♪
Come on, come on
With us and we can go ♪
-How you making out, you sexy beast?
-Gross.
I want it to be cool,
I want it to be loud,
and I wanna be able to raise
and lower it automatically.
This whole process
is gonna be an engineering feat.
While I figure out
the electronics
and get to work on the DJ booth itself
Yeah, we're gonna go waves.
High frequency movement will go fast.
Here we go. Yeah, that's, uh That's sick.
Sick!
Don's got his hands full
creating an automated platform
that can support the weight of the build.
The fun will never end ♪
I'm thinking of some kind
of actuating scissor lift,
but getting that to work in this space
is gonna be tough.
It's way more grandiose
than it ever should be.
We are, we are
The perfect team of friends ♪
Come on, come on
The fun will never end ♪
Hey. Toodle-oo, boo.
You
Get out the way.
Oh my God. That's so dumb.
-Okay, you ready?
-Yeah. Hit it.
I don't think you'll get it.
Yeah. See, it's trying to draw.
It's not doing it.
Motherf
We've only got a week to figure this out,
and there are still
a lot of question marks.
- None of amps.
- Stupid box.
It needs more amperage.
I'm just hoping we didn't bite off
a little more than we can chew.
This lift,
it takes a minimum of eight amps.
That's a lot of power,
so it could burn out my lights.
And with how today is going,
it probably will happen.
-Probably.
-Yeah.
I don't know how we'll get eight amps
and 24 volts through the trunk.
- Hold on. Let me
- We can figure it out.
Trying to bend this shock
to release some pressure on the hinge.
Ah, how's that working out for you, Saul?
Um
I need some more leverage.
I need some more leverage.
- I don't know, Saul.
- Ah-ha!
Look what we got.
People at home
are probably laughing at us.
"Why don't you do it this way?
Why don't you do that?"
"Why did you put Lamborghini doors?"
Nope. Nope. Nope. You're gonna break it.
I've got an idea.
What if we get a ratchet strap,
and see if we can get it
to budge that way?
Now usually
you use a ratchet strap
to secure something into place
using tension.
But here, we're gonna try to use
that same tension
to bend the new hinge into place
flat against the body of the car.
You thought Lamborghini doors
were a good idea?
Never said it was gonna be easy.
Is it on? There it goes.
There it goes!
Maybe.
Yay!
Now that we got
the Lamborghini hinge
ratcheted into position
flush with the body of the car
The saga of the door continues.
we just need to get the door
bolted securely to it
reconnect the electrical
and other details, like the door handle
It's on.
Test her out. Nice and tight.
-Oh, yeah. Let me just
-Look at that!
Whoo!
and then we just need to do it
all over again on the other side.
Well, I've done nothing like this
on a car before.
There's a first for everything.
Since we're going loud
and sporty on this one,
when it comes to paint,
I'm starting with a classic cherry red.
But to make sure that
it's also as unique as Aaron,
I've got a pretty wild idea
that I've been wanting to try
that I think will work great with
the lines of this 5th-generation Prelude,
which is sort of
an illustrator kind of paint job
I guess is the best way
we can describe that.
So since it's so hard to describe,
we're gonna do an example of it
on this little toy car
that I picked up to be the guinea pig
just so we can get an idea
of what it'll look like
and make sure
everybody on the team is on board.
Then we're gonna take this idea
and apply it to the Prelude
and make it a real-life version of it.
Cherry on top ♪
You're my cherry on top ♪
With this illustrator
paint job/effect that we're doing,
it starts with a regular base coat
like any other car would,
and then we're gonna come on top of it
with airbrush and paint markers
to give it that
illustrated/cartoonish kind of look.
It'll look like
it came straight out of a comic book.
Oh, hey, you're my cherry on top ♪
Literally the same process
as painting a car.
Just a little baby paint job.
What the hell?
I'll get there eventually. Just hang on.
It's not the fastest thing in the world.
That is so cute.
- Do you like it?
- What is that?
Um, this is a mini car that I used
as a test panel for the Prelude.
That looks so sick.
It's gonna be cool because the Prelude
has the perfect body lines for it.
I had no clue.
- Yeah.
- That's epic.
I love it.
I think this is perfect for the Prelude.
-That's pretty dope.
-I didn't really get it, but that's, uh
- Yep.
- That's slick.
I'm all for it.
We just have to make this bigger,
and then, hopefully, it turns out
as cool as its little brother.
Ah, what?
-He scoots over.
-This is badass.
-Does it drive with you in it?
-Yeah. Hell yeah, it does.
Hang on. You're in my way.
- It's so slow.
- It's super slow.
She's the perfect size for it too.
That's amazing.
- Can I drive it?
- You want to?
Pull up in the whip right now ♪
Pull up in the whip right now ♪
Look at his face. He's so serious.
All right.
You guys are gonna break it.
I'm out.
That's so cool.
-Okay. Bye.
-Bye.
- That's sick.
- She kinda looks good in that thing.
I want one.
What?
Lick it, touch it ♪
Do you wanna lick my ice cream? ♪
Come on, lick it good now ♪
Don't you wanna taste my ice cream? ♪
Let's get to it.
All right. It's a two-part stock exhaust,
so we are taking off
the axle back part first.
There goes the muffler. Oh. Okay. Yep.
That one's not very pretty.
And now the catalytic converter.
The catalytic converter is
the part of the exhaust system
that sits between the engine and muffler.
The inside is lined with platinum
and other precious metals,
so that when the car's emissions
pass through the way to the tailpipe,
a chemical reaction occurs reducing
the levels of toxic gasses released
and helping to save the environment
one engine at a time.
Because they're full of precious metals,
people love to steal them.
They get under here and cut it out.
So, fun fact, if you ever get in your car
after being parked
and it sounds really loud,
your catalytic converter
probably got stolen.
It happened to Shayna. I'm not lying.
They cut it right off of her truck.
- Right off of her truck.
- They cut it right off, yeah.
Yeah, that is gone.
Good times. Good times.
One of the things
about building older cars
is that sometimes the parts they used
to make for them are discontinued, so
We're gonna make our own,
so let's get to it.
You like it 'cause you choose it ♪
Oh, DJ, don't refuse it
It ain't nothing like hip-hop music ♪
It ain't nothing like hip ♪
I'm gonna give this thing
a custom dual pipe exhaust system.
It is gonna help with air flow,
add a couple extra horsepower,
but overall, it looks cool,
and it's gonna sound better.
Run me over.
That was smooth.
That was super smooth.
- Okay, ready for down?
- Yep.
- What?
- See? See?
Attack weld.
Oh God. It's a hand guillotine.
Yo, yo. Garage team, what's happening?
.
Come over here and listen, man.
I can see How's everybody feeling?
Living the dream.
A little tired.
-Tired.
-It's been rough.
Donnie, how you feeling, man?
Uh, pretty cooked.
- Yeah?
- Yeah.
Dang. How you feeling, Nelson?
I'm here.
I know I've been hitting y'all
with a whole lot of stuff,
so I got something for y'all.
Something that will help y'all relax
while y'all make it to the finish line.
Hey, my boy, Alex!
Come on out here, my man!
What? What's going on?
What is this?
Yeah.
Where has he been
this whole time?
Yeah, yeah.
Whoop.
What is that?
What's happening?
- Hey!
- What's going on? How you feeling?
- All right, you ready?
- I'm ready.
Hit them with it, baby.
Is that a xylophone?
Wow.
-What the
-What the ?
Just when I thought
this show couldn't get any weirder.
Give me the relaxation.
Come on. Tell me
this doesn't fix y'all's day, man.
Tell me this don't
make you feel good, Nelson.
Don't Don't Don't Don't touch me.
There you go, Saul.
Now you feeling it.
I can't handle this.
Come on, Shayna.
Close your eyes and feel the music.
Put your Let your hands loose.
All right, Alex. One second.
One second, my man.
All right. Now that we're all relaxed,
I do got more ideas for that Prelude.
You know what I'm saying?
-Oh no. I knew it was a trick.
-It's not gonna shoot this out, is it?
- Yes.
- No more pizza shooters.
Put one of these in the trunk.
I'm just playing with y'all.
I just brought this man to play
while y'all work.
Hit it, Alex.
- He's breaking it down.
- What if you bought coffee?
- Coffee?
- Yeah. That's
- He already did.
- It helps.
This guy's funny.
Oh, he's, like, floating away.
-Like a trash bag in the wind.
-Here we go.
"Like a trash bag in the wind."
- Did he really just leave?
- Yeah.
- He's out.
- Save me from this hell.
- Get back to work.
- All right.
I don't want my freaking
I don't wanna lose a hand.
I wonder if it's because
it's pulling at an angle.
I'm gonna make
a little interlocking device that pivots
and has a little bolt through it.
-I'm gonna goober globber this whole well.
-Yeah, send it.
Don and I have been pretty busy
since he tried to cut off my hand.
- What?
- Oh God.
That was scary.
I can't do season two with a hook.
While Don's been focused on
completing the scissor lift
and reinforcing its sliding joints
You could move a house with this.
You could. It's gonna need
its own power grid to work.
I got the electrical system
that will power it
and our whole audio-visual package wired.
Box takes two amps.
This lift takes at minimum eight amps.
That's a lot of power.
You should have enough, though.
Now to top it all off, literally,
I've got a custom-cut two-way mirror that,
along with some programmable LEDs,
I'm gonna use to create
a cool infinity light effect
for our little trunk discotheque.
Here we go.
- Yeah. That was a good karate chop?
- We're good. Hooray.
Can you plug in the power source?
Ooh, yippee-ki-yay.
- Let's get it powered.
- Yep. Power source.
- Power source, check. So positive?
- Yep.
We're at 24.
I do not need that many amps, though.
Connecting.
Oh.
Oh. Oh!
Why is it so hazy?
Oh.
What'd you do?
The plastic liner
on the mirror is still there.
It completely ruins the infinity effect.
I'm gonna have to pry it out
and reinstall it all over again.
I wanted this done before lunch
and then after lunch,
and now it's What time is it?
- It's probably 7:30.
- Yep.
I know how you feel.
To go with the theme
of the type R interior,
we decided to remove
this ancient steering wheel.
This is what it had, big and bulky.
We wanted to go with
the race-inspired steering wheel
with leather and red stitching.
Now because we're recreating
our own Type R interior for this Prelude,
we decided to take inspiration
from some of Honda's other Type Rs.
Black headliner from the Integra Type R.
The seat's design from the new FK8 Type R,
which is a newer Civic.
And the center console would look
right at home in an NSX supercar.
It's just gonna feel like what Honda
should've done for the Prelude.
And now it's Type R for Resurrected Ride.
Hell yeah.
We got a little less than a day
till we got to return Aaron's ride,
and there's still plenty of work to do.
So you got this thing dialed in or what?
Yeah, the base is dope.
He's gotta do the top over again.
- Nelson?
- I'm gonna do all of it over.
I have to focus.
I'll put my headphones in,
and if someone talks to me,
I'll throw them across the lawn.
The bases are rock-hard.
It's ready to rock and roll.
Yeah?
Solid as can be.
Well, now that you're finished up,
then we can finish up our work.
Been waiting on you, brother.
We got just 24 hours left
to get this fast and furious car
back to Aaron.
The only thing you have to do, Shayna,
is you're gonna
have to full airbrush color match it
to the theme of the car and
Hey, hey! Where you going?
The good news is now that we know
the dimensions of Don's lift,
I can install the custom sound system
into the trunk.
Button up the last speaker here.
It really kicked my butt.
Nelson's putting the finishing touches
on the DJ booth.
I think I'm having my official,
like, melt moment.
We've all had one except me,
and I'm, like, well on my way today.
Or maybe not.
Lacey and Shayna have
some finishing touches of their own,
including some brand-new
aluminum racing wheels,
custom headlights, and a tune-up
that'll get this Honda running
on all four cylinders.
We've got a little bit of a squeak.
Kind of sounds
like a dying animal.
Clip sounds horrible.
We won't be able to hear the good exhaust
when this sounds like that.
This thing's pretty rough.
That feels pretty good.
Do you hear that?
Nothing.
All right. Now that Nelson has
the DJ booth ready to rock
It worked. Thank God.
we'll install the rest
of the interior,
give her a nice polish
and get ready to present Aaron
with his one-of-a-kind,
first ever Prelude Type R.
DJ, get me on ♪
I'm going crazy for you ♪
All right, how you been?
I've been dancing, just spreading love.
Spreading love. You're a positive brother,
and it really translates.
You know what? Hey.
We have a group of geniuses back here.
- Hi.
- Hey. What up?
We got your car right there.
How excited are you?
Bro, I'm nervous. Like,
I can't even think straight right now.
It feels like
I'm in a dream right now, bro.
Well, let's give it speed and go get it.
Okay!
All right, let's go, man.
Ooh! There, baby!
Yeah, that's extra .
All right, man. Hit it!
Oh, whoa. Oh my God.
I know. It's amazing
what they can do with technology.
- They got the music thing down.
- That's my life, right there.
- Close your eyes. Don't open.
- They're closed.
Oh. What?
This is your car.
This is crazy!
Is that actually my baby right there?
- Yes!
- Like, bro!
This is magical.
My students get to see me in this?
Bro, that is your car.
- What?
- Bro, hold on.
-Whoo-wee!
-Whoo!
Oh!
-Whoa!
-Let's go!
Oh my God, man.
That's your car, my boy.
How you feeling?
Like this is a pure reflection
of who I am and I
I can't even, like,
process it all right now,
and I thank you guys so much.
Thank you guys.
Hey, man.
That was absolutely beautiful.
Now, as dope as this looks,
there's a lot to this car
that you still haven't seen yet.
Yes.
Yo, my girl Shayna,
master of the colors, man.
You did a dope job on this right here.
You wanna tell us about it?
We had a blast
with this paint job,
and we wanted to keep it,
along with your vibe,
something fun and upbeat.
And we just airbrushed different accents
based on the body lines of the car,
and then we came through
with a black paint marker
and then followed all the hard body lines
to give it that sketchy,
kind of animated look.
It's so animated, man, like you.
It matches, which is great.
Seriously. Like, I'm a kid at heart.
It is so magical, man.
My girl Lacey, queen of positivity.
She's positive like you are.
-Hey, there we go.
-Yeah, I'm feeling the vibes.
- Hey, there we go.
- So I added some sporty wheels.
And it also needed
a lot of work under the hood.
So I tuned everything up for you.
- Oh baby.
- Horsepower, baby!
And also, we added
a custom stainless steel dual exhaust
with quad tips.
- Yeah.
- Sounds crazy, bro.
It's gonna look cool,
and it sounds cool too.
Let's go!
- Wanna see inside the car?
- I wanna see inside.
- Let's go. Let's go.
- Let's go. Okay.
Can I open the door for you?
Please do the honor.
Oh!
What!
This is crazy!
Yo, the door's literally going up.
- Bro, what?
- It goes up.
We added Lamborghini doors to this thing.
This is crazy.
Come on, baby. This is crazy!
Wait. There's more.
When the car came in,
it definitely needed some upgrading.
Yo, what?
Do you remember your old seats?
They were fabric, kind of tore up.
Oh, this is crazy.
Ooh!
What we wanted to do is create
your own version of the Type R.
So we went with black and red leather.
Door panels as well,
two-toned with Alcantara suede
and a little bit of carbon-fiber accents.
Suede, that carbon fiber.
I like that carbon fiber, baby!
We even embroidered "Type R"
into your headrest.
For you, Type R for Resurrected Rides.
What? Let's go!
I see what you're all doing.
That's branding right there.
- Bro.
- How you feeling right now?
I'm trying to fight back the tears,
honestly, because it is very tough to,
you know, have a car
that you can't really rely on.
So this is a dream, you know what I mean?
Like, the fact that
I'm literally in my own car
that's customized perfectly for me.
-Like this is unbelievable, man.
-There's more, my man.
- What, there's more?
- There is.
We popping the trunk?
You ready?
Bro, what?
Bro, you serious?
Oh my God. Are you serious?
Made a surprise for you.
Took a lot of engineering.
We physically made a full-on
DJ booth recording studio set-up,
including a trunk with a camera,
a beat pad,
a pro vocal mic pumping out 400 watts
to two 12-inch subs,
built with custom ring lights.
The whole idea is
you pull into a parking lot somewhere,
you want to pop, lock it, and get weird?
You raise the table,
put your infinity light on,
you get a little Uh Uh Uh!
-Ooh Ooh Ooh!
-Oh snap!
Oh! That's crazy.
The whole system is topped off
with Nelson's hand-cut infinity mirror.
This is a two-way mirror, so we have
a base mirror as well as a COB light.
It's called a circuit onboard lighting,
an advanced lighting system
that's more neon,
and it bounces between the two mirrors
and creates an infinite amount of light.
Oh my God.
And raises and lowers automatically
out of the trunk
on a scissor lift I designed.
Don did a great job on the scissor lift.
I worked on the beat pad, your iPad.
You can fire it up
and teach a dance class anywhere.
Ah, bro! This is gonna be so crazy.
- I'mma guess every day.
- Hit it.
- This a Pelude!
- Oh!
Pelude! Pelude! Pelude! ♪
Pelude! Pelude! Pelude! Pelude! ♪
Pelude! Pelude!

soon as I laid eyes on it,
I was beyond just mind-blown.

I've got colours in my heart ♪

natural sunlight like a sunroof.

You know what I love

They have passion.
Saul and Oscar work so hard to make sure
every detail of our builds are on point.
Lacey won't let anything roll out

And Nelson and Don are passionate
about their weird little gadgets.
And each other.
Even Shayna is passionate about her art.
And napping.
And that's why I like Aaron.
Hey.
He is definitely a man of passion.
Hey! Hey!
Even with a broken-down car,
baby, we got this.
He's just a ball of energy, full of joy.
He's passionate
about his girlfriend, Jacqueline.
She's amazing. She completes me.
She's my other half.
He's passionate about the students
in his dance classes.
Aaron has a very big heart,
especially for the ones that are in need.
I work with
all different types of people.
The main thing is really
about expressing yourself,
you know, with movement.
And he's even really passionate
about his busted-up 2001 Honda Prelude.
Maybe some, like,
new interior. Like Oh.
Come on, that's my baby right there.
It's a little dusty, but that's my baby.
AC's still not working.
So when Jacqueline sent in
a submission video
With money,
it's just a little tight,
but no matter what,
as long as we keep going, we'll be good.
We got this.
asking us to help Aaron out.
He brings joy to everybody
Yeah!
and he needs his car
to bring him joy as well.
You know I had to do it.
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
Yo, so right now we are
outside Aaron's dance studio.
He's in there teaching.
All right. Now, if you've been watching
the season so far,
you know we do a lot of ambushes.
You know what I'm saying?
I've done fun ones.
We got your ass!
Dumb ones.
Let's do this. Stay low. Stay low.
Ones that don't go well.
Don't smell my butt.
Now I'm about to do none.
Why? Because we've run out
of ideas completely.
Anyway, let's go.
I'mma tell him
he's getting his ride resurrected.
Hey, Aaron! You are my sup
What's up, boy? What's up, Aaron?
Oh my God!
What's up, man?
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
What are y'all doing?
Dude, this is crazy.
Hey, man. That's crazy
that you reacted like that.
What do you do
when you get paid? Like this
That was hard, bruh.
-How you doing, man? You good?
-Yo, I'm doing amazing.
I'm not liking that car outside.
That looks like trash.
Yeah. That's another story right there.
All right, man.
Let's take a look at this car.
-How long have you had this?
-I've had this for a little over a year.
-Uh-huh.
-It's been my baby.
I'm glad it's not a real baby
'cause I'd call Child Protective Services.
You ain't got a R my boy. It's a "Pelude."
Exactly, bro.
Bro, what is this?
It look like a marshmallow man
wiped his ass all along your car.
-What happened here?
-I came in the next morning and had this.
I just feel like a man
with the ashiest ass was just like,
"I don't like him or his music."
Um, I never seen a car
with puzzle pieces before.
Why's this just hanging in here?
Oh, but
That ain't supposed to be that.
Is that storage, my boy?
Could you imagine the hottest summer days?
No music. No AC.
I mean, it's a lot
that I'm dealing with this car.
You asked me if I can imagine,
and I cannot.
I would rather walk.
But because I'm on the show,
I do have to drive it right now.
So where are your keys?
Take care of it now.
If I don't, what the hell's gonna happen?
Crashing this would be helping you.
-Get in the car. I ain't driving alone!
-Oh, I'm coming with you?
- Yeah.
- Okay, let's go.
If I die in this thing,
you die in this thing.
Oh shoot. Okay.
Let's get it, baby!
This feels like an old mattress.
It's a very shaky ride. Not smooth at all.
This is a very low car too.
I didn't realize how low it was.
I feel like I'm on a hoverboard.
So you like to teach kids, man.
Tell me more about that, bro.
Yeah, man. Dance is my life.
I like to inspire people the right ways.
You know, I get to see people grow
and elevate in their personal lives.
That's great, man.
Those are life-changing things
that you bring to somebody's life.
-But you know what's really funny, Chris?
-What?
When I pull up in this car,
you could just imagine the jokes
that they be, uh, putting on me, bro.
I can imagine them
because I'm thinking of them as we drive.
This is all I got.
This is like my baby.
But it's not something
that technically I can be proud of.
So Jacqueline's birthday is next weekend,
and I was gonna take her
on a special road trip.
But I mean, honestly,
I don't really have the funds, man,
to upgrade it the way I want.
What kind of things
would you want done to the car, man?
I feel like I have a big personality.
I love colors
-Right.
-I love shines. Obviously, I love music.
Even just having a radio in here
would be freaking amazing, right?
But I don't even know what's gonna happen.
Look, hopefully you don't get
too wild and crazy
and, you know, go too far, but
Nah, man, we never go too far.
You know, I appreciate
your positive energy, man.
You work hard. You care about the people.
I'm a huge fan of that, man,
and you deserve to be in a car
where you ain't got to use
pieces of the car to fan yourself.
So look, I'm gonna drop you back off
at the dance studio,
and I'll have it back in time for you
to take your girl on that birthday trip.
Dude, I am so overly excited.
I can tell, man.
All day, every day, day, day ♪
All day, everyday, day, every day ♪
My garage team's been working
around the clock, 24/7,
resurrecting your rides.
You know what they say.
"The more the merrier."
Especially when it comes
to busted old cars.
- We got another one.
- 'Kay.
- Oh my God.
- Oh man.
-Oh no. Already?
-What the hell is this?
Oh my God.
Garage team, assemble!
What's up?
It's a Prelude or a Pelude,
if you will, because there's no R.
It's pretty bad. I know y'all have seen
the submission video.
The dude is a big personality.
Y'all take a look at it.
Take it all in.
What did he hit on the side here?
-He hit a ghost ass.
-"Ghost ass"?
And it just rolled alongside it.
What do y'all think?
I'm a Honda guy.
There's plenty of modifications
that you can do to it, you know?
I'm thinking maybe like a Type R build.
Tell 'em what the Type R is, Oscar.
So Honda called
all its race models Type R.
So usually, it would come with
a little bit more performance motor,
a little bit more lightweight,
and red and black theme on the interior.
They have
the Integra Type R, the Civic Type R,
but they never made the Prelude Type R.
So that could be an idea right there.
What do you think, Saul?
I mean, I think it'd look good,
something loud.
I know I'll get a lot of heat for this,
but what about
Lamborghini doors on this thing?
-You know, put some
-Oh jeez.
- That's kind of fire.
- That's gonna be a lot of work.
Hey, that's part of the It goes with it.
You know what I mean?
That would be crazy looking.
If we're gonna go Type R,
let's go crazy with it.
I mean, obviously,
he's a very loud and bright person,
and I've had this comic book-inspired look
I've wanted to try.
That would be super cool to do on this.
There's paint markers.
There's airbrushing involved.
Don, you look a little confused.
Don't worry. I'll show you a test.
It's fully custom, so I'm all about it.
If there's any person that'd drive
a car that looks like a tie-dye shirt,
it'd be this dude.
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
And I promise you that, okay?
So that sounds amazing.
So he's a dancer,
and obviously he's gonna need
a new sound system.
Since we're going for loud
and kind of wild, D,
you and I will partner up because I need
You have this special thing
that I can't do.
I want it to be well done, techy, cool,
but be a little stupid.
And the stupid is where I need your help.
Yeah, that's exactly right.
Stupid is where we need Don.
But the good stupid.
Something's got to do Whoop, whoop.
Exactly. That, see?
That's the stupid I need.
Not only will we get
a proper sound system installed up front,
but we'll redo the entire trunk
and maybe a little bit of the back seat
to hold some awesome stereo equipment,
DJ equipment, some kind of lighting.
Open the trunk
and have a disco ball come out.
And when it comes up, then it hangs from
-Yeah.
-If y'all could do that, that'd be tight.
If you guys get a disco ball,
I'm gonna get it and just Boom!
Don't even get me started on your little
whizz-bangs if you want a disco ball.
-A disco ball isn't realistic.
-How?
Is your pizza shooter realistic?
-Hey. The pizza shooter was legendary!
-Legendary!
-Donnie, let's hit it.
-Yo!
Fire in the hole, baby!
It works.
That is That is so dumb.
It was absolutely necessary.
He's gonna need that
when the Foot Clan comes.
- Yes!
- He's a dancer.
You see what's going on, y'all?
I don't know if I brought people together
or made people new enemies.
That's so stupid.
And I haven't told them I promised
Aaron they'd be done in a week.
Either way
car's getting done,
and someone's getting hurt.

With Lamborghini doors
Got it?
everything hinges on the hinges.
Put it right behind you.
They have to be
specially engineered,
not just to swing the door up vertically,
but also hold it there safely,
so it doesn't end up snapping off
or tipping over later.
That door's kind of heavy like
But I guess this thing'll
be able to withstand it.
-Oh, yeah.
-Oh, yeah. I can't
That shock.
Look at the size of that shock.
That's beefy. It should be fine.
Yeah.
One cool thing is that
this gives you a lot of adjustability.
This has up-and-down function.
You can adjust.
- Yeah.
- You know?
I mean, you can definitely say that this
is definitely more of a complex hinge
because, initially,
you just have these two hinges here.
Now you have this whole system
that's gonna make everything pivot.
Oh, we are way off.
This is a big problem.
This hinge is supposed to sit flush
against the fender apron.
And because this thing has
some extrusions coming out of it,
it's not letting it sit flush.
That's a problem
we'll have to figure it out.
Nelson!
Holy . Dude!
- What are you doing?
- We're making a fabrication station.
-What are you doing with a pallet jack?
-I gotta move your desk.
-You're not moving my desk.
-Come on. Hop on the train.
- There's no train.
- I want you closer to me.
You're seriously moving my table.
This is literally off the ground.
Are you nuts?
Bye.
Okay, okay, okay.
Hold on, hold on, hold on.
Aw, are you guys having
a moment right now?
Yeah, he said he wants
to come move in with me.
-We're doing this together as a team.
-That's really cute.
I'm gonna park you next to me.
Ooh, this is scary.
Right
Jesus.
-Oh God.
-Let's do it!
- Time to rock. You just made my day.
- Your hands are filthy.
Against my better judgment,
I'm teaming up with Don
to design, fabricate, and install
a custom DJ setup in Aaron's trunk,
all routed through a kick-ass sound system
surrounded by custom-lit infinity mirrors
and supported by
a one-of-a-kind retractable platform
that allows the whole party to be stashed
in the trunk when Aaron is driving.
It may not be a disco ball,
but it's close enough.
This'll be interesting. It really will.
We'll see where brute force and
the elegance of what I do come together.
-You and me, best friends.
-Mmm, nope.
Best friend and teammate.
Also no.
You know what we need?
We need our montage song.
No!

-How you making out, you sexy beast?
-Gross.
I want it to be cool,
I want it to be loud,

and lower it automatically.

is gonna be an engineering feat.
While I figure out
the electronics
and get to work on the DJ booth itself
Yeah, we're gonna go waves.
High frequency movement will go fast.
Here we go. Yeah, that's, uh That's sick.
Sick!
Don's got his hands full

of actuating scissor lift,

Hey. Toodle-oo, boo.

Get out the way.
Oh my God. That's so dumb.
-Okay, you ready?
-Yeah. Hit it.
I don't think you'll get it.
Yeah. See, it's trying to draw.
It's not doing it.
Motherf
We've only got a week to figure this out,
and there are still
a lot of question marks.
- None of amps.
- Stupid box.
It needs more amperage.
I'm just hoping we didn't bite off
a little more than we can chew.
This lift,
it takes a minimum of eight amps.
That's a lot of power,
so it could burn out my lights.
And with how today is going,
it probably will happen.
-Probably.
-Yeah.
I don't know how we'll get eight amps
and 24 volts through the trunk.
- Hold on. Let me
- We can figure it out.
Trying to bend this shock
to release some pressure on the hinge.
Ah, how's that working out for you, Saul?
Um
I need some more leverage.
I need some more leverage.
- I don't know, Saul.
- Ah-ha!
Look what we got.
People at home
are probably laughing at us.
"Why don't you do it this way?
Why don't you do that?"
"Why did you put Lamborghini doors?"
Nope. Nope. Nope. You're gonna break it.
I've got an idea.
What if we get a ratchet strap,
and see if we can get it
to budge that way?
Now usually
you use a ratchet strap
to secure something into place
using tension.
But here, we're gonna try to use
that same tension
to bend the new hinge into place
flat against the body of the car.
You thought Lamborghini doors
were a good idea?
Never said it was gonna be easy.
Is it on? There it goes.
There it goes!
Maybe.
Yay!
Now that we got
the Lamborghini hinge
ratcheted into position
flush with the body of the car
The saga of the door continues.
we just need to get the door
bolted securely to it
reconnect the electrical
and other details, like the door handle
It's on.
Test her out. Nice and tight.
-Oh, yeah. Let me just
-Look at that!
Whoo!
and then we just need to do it
all over again on the other side.
Well, I've done nothing like this
on a car before.
There's a first for everything.
Since we're going loud
and sporty on this one,
when it comes to paint,
I'm starting with a classic cherry red.
But to make sure that
it's also as unique as Aaron,
I've got a pretty wild idea
that I've been wanting to try
that I think will work great with
the lines of this 5th-generation Prelude,
which is sort of
an illustrator kind of paint job
I guess is the best way
we can describe that.
So since it's so hard to describe,
we're gonna do an example of it
on this little toy car
that I picked up to be the guinea pig
just so we can get an idea
of what it'll look like
and make sure
everybody on the team is on board.
Then we're gonna take this idea
and apply it to the Prelude
and make it a real-life version of it.
Cherry on top ♪
You're my cherry on top ♪
With this illustrator
paint job/effect that we're doing,
it starts with a regular base coat
like any other car would,
and then we're gonna come on top of it
with airbrush and paint markers
to give it that
illustrated/cartoonish kind of look.
It'll look like
it came straight out of a comic book.
Oh, hey, you're my cherry on top ♪
Literally the same process
as painting a car.
Just a little baby paint job.
What the hell?
I'll get there eventually. Just hang on.
It's not the fastest thing in the world.
That is so cute.
- Do you like it?
- What is that?
Um, this is a mini car that I used
as a test panel for the Prelude.
That looks so sick.
It's gonna be cool because the Prelude
has the perfect body lines for it.
I had no clue.
- Yeah.
- That's epic.
I love it.
I think this is perfect for the Prelude.
-That's pretty dope.
-I didn't really get it, but that's, uh
- Yep.
- That's slick.
I'm all for it.
We just have to make this bigger,
and then, hopefully, it turns out
as cool as its little brother.
Ah, what?
-He scoots over.
-This is badass.
-Does it drive with you in it?
-Yeah. Hell yeah, it does.
Hang on. You're in my way.
- It's so slow.
- It's super slow.
She's the perfect size for it too.
That's amazing.
- Can I drive it?

All right. It's a two-part stock exhaust,
so we are taking off
the axle back part first.
There goes the muffler. Oh. Okay. Yep.
That one's not very pretty.
And now the catalytic converter.
The catalytic converter is
the part of the exhaust system
that sits between the engine and muffler.
The inside is lined with platinum
and other precious metals,
so that when the car's emissions
pass through the way to the tailpipe,
a chemical reaction occurs reducing
the levels of toxic gasses released
and helping to save the environment
one engine at a time.
Because they're full of precious metals,
people love to steal them.
They get under here and cut it out.
So, fun fact, if you ever get in your car
after being parked
and it sounds really loud,
your catalytic converter
probably got stolen.
It happened to Shayna. I'm not lying.
They cut it right off of her truck.
- Right off of her truck.
- They cut it right off, yeah.
Yeah, that is gone.
Good times. Good times.
One of the things
about building older cars
is that sometimes the parts they used
to make for them are discontinued, so
We're gonna make our own,
so let's get to it.
You like it 'cause you choose it ♪
Oh, DJ, don't refuse it
It ain't nothing like hip-hop music ♪
It ain't nothing like hip ♪
I'm gonna give this thing
a custom dual pipe exhaust system.
It is gonna help with air flow,
add a couple extra horsepower,
but overall, it looks cool,
and it's gonna sound better.
Run me over.
That was smooth.
That was super smooth.
- Okay, ready for down?
- Yep.
- What?
- See? See?
Attack weld.
Oh God. It's a hand guillotine.
Yo, yo. Garage team, what's happening?
.
Come over here and listen, man.
I can see How's everybody feeling?
Living the dream.
A little tired.
-Tired.
-It's been rough.
Donnie, how you feeling, man?
Uh, pretty cooked.
- Yeah?
- Yeah.
Dang. How you feeling, Nelson?
I'm here.
I know I've been hitting y'all
with a whole lot of stuff,
so I got something for y'all.
Something that will help y'all relax
while y'all make it to the finish line.
Hey, my boy, Alex!
Come on out here, my man!
What? What's going on?
What is this?
Yeah.
Where has he been
this whole time?
Yeah, yeah.
Whoop.
What is that?
What's happening?
- Hey!
- What's going on? How you feeling?
- All right, you ready?
- I'm ready.
Hit them with it, baby.
Is that a xylophone?
Wow.
-What the
-What the ?
Just when I thought
this show couldn't get any weirder.
Give me the relaxation.
Come on. Tell me
this doesn't fix y'all's day, man.
Tell me this don't
make you feel good, Nelson.
Don't Don't Don't Don't touch me.
There you go, Saul.
Now you feeling it.
I can't handle this.
Come on, Shayna.
Close your eyes and feel the music.
Put your Let your hands loose.
All right, Alex. One second.
One second, my man.
All right. Now that we're all relaxed,
I do got more ideas for that Prelude.
You know what I'm saying?
-Oh no. I knew it was a trick.
-It's not gonna shoot this out, is it?
- Yes.
- No more pizza shooters.
Put one of these in the trunk.
I'm just playing with y'all.
I just brought this man to play
while y'all work.
Hit it, Alex.
- He's breaking it down.
- What if you bought coffee?
- Coffee?
- Yeah. That's
- He already did.
- It helps.
This guy's funny.
Oh, he's, like, floating away.
-Like a trash bag in the wind.
-Here we go.
"Like a trash bag in the wind."
- Did he really just leave?
- Yeah.
- He's out.
- Save me from this hell.
- Get back to work.
- All right.
I don't want my freaking
I don't wanna lose a hand.
I wonder if it's because
it's pulling at an angle.
I'm gonna make
a little interlocking device that pivots
and has a little bolt through it.
-I'm gonna goober globber this whole well.
-Yeah, send it.
Don and I have been pretty busy
since he tried to cut off my hand.
- What?
- Oh God.
That was scary.
I can't do season two with a hook.
While Don's been focused on
completing the scissor lift
and reinforcing its sliding joints
You could move a house with this.
You could. It's gonna need
its own power grid to work.
I got the electrical system
that will power it
and our whole audio-visual package wired.
Box takes two amps.
This lift takes at minimum eight amps.
That's a lot of power.
You should have enough, though.
Now to top it all off, literally,
I've got a custom-cut two-way mirror that,
along with some programmable LEDs,
I'm gonna use to create
a cool infinity light effect
for our little trunk discotheque.
Here we go.
- Yeah. That was a good karate chop?
- We're good. Hooray.
Can you plug in the power source?
Ooh, yippee-ki-yay.
- Let's get it powered.
- Yep. Power source.
- Power source, check. So positive?
- Yep.
We're at 24.
I do not need that many amps, though.
Connecting.
Oh.
Oh. Oh!
Why is it so hazy?
Oh.
What'd you do?
The plastic liner
on the mirror is still there.
It completely ruins the infinity effect.
I'm gonna have to pry it out
and reinstall it all over again.
I wanted this done before lunch
and then after lunch,
and now it's What time is it?
- It's probably 7:30.
- Yep.
I know how you feel.
To go with the theme
of the type R interior,
we decided to remove
this ancient steering wheel.
This is what it had, big and bulky.
We wanted to go with
the race-inspired steering wheel
with leather and red stitching.
Now because we're recreating
our own Type R interior for this Prelude,
we decided to take inspiration
from some of Honda's other Type Rs.
Black headliner from the Integra Type R.
The seat's design from the new FK8 Type R,
which is a newer Civic.
And the center console would look
right at home in an NSX supercar.
It's just gonna feel like what Honda
should've done for the Prelude.
And now it's Type R for Resurrected Ride.
Hell yeah.
We got a little less than a day
till we got to return Aaron's ride,
and there's still plenty of work to do.
So you got this thing dialed in or what?
Yeah, the base is dope.
He's gotta do the top over again.
- Nelson?
- I'm gonna do all of it over.
I have to focus.
I'll put my headphones in,
and if someone talks to me,
I'll throw them across the lawn.
The bases are rock-hard.
It's ready to rock and roll.
Yeah?
Solid as can be.
Well, now that you're finished up,
then we can finish up our work.
Been waiting on you, brother.
We got just 24 hours left
to get this fast and furious car
back to Aaron.
The only thing you have to do, Shayna,
is you're gonna
have to full airbrush color match it
to the theme of the car and
Hey, hey! Where you going?
The good news is now that we know
the dimensions of Don's lift,
I can install the custom sound system
into the trunk.
Button up the last speaker here.
It really kicked my butt.
Nelson's putting the finishing touches
on the DJ booth.
I think I'm having my official,
like, melt moment.
We've all had one except me,
and I'm, like, well on my way today.
Or maybe not.
Lacey and Shayna have
some finishing touches of their own,
including some brand-new
aluminum racing wheels,
custom headlights, and a tune-up
that'll get this Honda running
on all four cylinders.
We've got a little bit of a squeak.
Kind of sounds
like a dying animal.
Clip sounds horrible.
We won't be able to hear the good exhaust
when this sounds like that.
This thing's pretty rough.
That feels pretty good.
Do you hear that?
Nothing.
All right. Now that Nelson has
the DJ booth ready to rock
It worked. Thank God.
we'll install the rest
of the interior,
give her a nice polish
and get ready to present Aaron
with his one-of-a-kind,
first ever Prelude Type R.
DJ, get me on ♪
I'm going crazy for you ♪
All right, how you been?
I've been dancing, just spreading love.
Spreading love. You're a positive brother,

You know what? Hey.
We have a group of geniuses back here.
- Hi.
- Hey. What up?
We got your car right there.
How excited are you?
Bro, I'm nervous. Like,
I can't even think straight right now.
It feels like
I'm in a dream right now, bro.
Well, let's give it speed and go get it.
Okay!
All right, let's go, man.
Ooh! There, baby!
Yeah, that's extra .
All right, man. Hit it!
Oh, whoa. Oh my God.
I know. It's amazing
what they can do with technology.
- They got the music thing down.
- That's my life, right there.
- Close your eyes. Don't open.
- They're closed.
Oh. What?
This is your car.
This is crazy!
Is that actually my baby right there?
- Yes!
- Like, bro!
This is magical.
My students get to see me in this?
Bro, that is your car.
- What?
- Bro, hold on.
-Whoo-wee!
-Whoo!
Oh!
-Whoa!
-Let's go!
Oh my God, man.
That's your car, my boy.
How you feeling?
Like this is a pure reflection
of who I am and I
I can't even, like,
process it all right now,
and I thank you guys so much.
Thank you guys.
Hey, man.
That was absolutely beautiful.
Now, as dope as this looks,
there's a lot to this car
that you still haven't seen yet.
Yes.
Yo, my girl Shayna,
master of the colors, man.
You did a dope job on this right here.
You wanna tell us about it?
We had a blast
with this paint job,
and we wanted to keep it,
along with your vibe,
something fun and upbeat.
And we just airbrushed different accents
based on the body lines of the car,
and then we came through
with a black paint marker
and then followed all the hard body lines
to give it that sketchy,
kind of animated look.
It's so animated, man, like you.
It matches, which is great.
Seriously. Like, I'm a kid at heart.
It is so magical, man.
My girl Lacey, queen of positivity.
She's positive like you are.
-Hey, there we go.
-Yeah, I'm feeling the vibes.
- Hey, there we go.
- So I added some sporty wheels.
And it also needed
a lot of work under the hood.
So I tuned everything up for you.
- Oh baby.
- Horsepower, baby!
And also, we added
a custom stainless steel dual exhaust
with quad tips.
- Yeah.
- Sounds crazy, bro.
It's gonna look cool,
and it sounds cool too.
Let's go!
- Wanna see inside the car?
- I wanna see inside.
- Let's go. Let's go.
- Let's go. Okay.
Can I open the door for you?
Please do the honor.
Oh!
What!
This is crazy!
Yo, the door's literally going up.
- Bro, what?
- It goes up.
We added Lamborghini doors to this thing.
This is crazy.
Come on, baby. This is crazy!
Wait. There's more.
When the car came in,
it definitely needed some upgrading.
Yo, what?
Do you remember your old seats?
They were fabric, kind of tore up.
Oh, this is crazy.
Ooh!
What we wanted to do is create
your own version of the Type R.
So we went with black and red leather.
Door panels as well,
two-toned with Alcantara suede
and a little bit of carbon-fiber accents.
Suede, that carbon fiber.
I like that carbon fiber, baby!
We even embroidered "Type R"
into your headrest.
For you, Type R for Resurrected Rides.
What? Let's go!
I see what you're all doing.
That's branding right there.
- Bro.
- How you feeling right now?
I'm trying to fight back the tears,
honestly, because it is very tough to,
you know, have a car
that you can't really rely on.
So this is a dream, you know what I mean?
Like, the fact that
I'm literally in my own car
that's customized perfectly for me.
-Like this is unbelievable, man.
-There's more, my man.
- What, there's more?
- There is.
We popping the trunk?
You ready?
Bro, what?
Bro, you serious?
Oh my God. Are you serious?
Made a surprise for you.
Took a lot of engineering.
We physically made a full-on
DJ booth recording studio set-up,
including a trunk with a camera,
a beat pad,
a pro vocal mic pumping out 400 watts
to two 12-inch subs,
built with custom ring lights.
The whole idea is
you pull into a parking lot somewhere,
you want to pop, lock it, and get weird?
You raise the table,
put your infinity light on,
you get a little Uh Uh Uh!
-Ooh Ooh Ooh!
-Oh snap!
Oh! That's crazy.
The whole system is topped off
with Nelson's hand-cut infinity mirror.
This is a two-way mirror, so we have
a base mirror as well as a COB light.
It's called a circuit onboard lighting,
an advanced lighting system
that's more neon,
and it bounces between the two mirrors
and creates an infinite amount of light.
Oh my God.
And raises and lowers automatically
out of the trunk
on a scissor lift I designed.
Don did a great job on the scissor lift.
I worked on the beat pad, your iPad.
You can fire it up
and teach a dance class anywhere.
Ah, bro! This is gonna be so crazy.
- I'mma guess every day.
- Hit it.
- This a Pelude!
- Oh!
Pelude! Pelude! Pelude! ♪
