May be the previous owner wanted a different look for the vents. It does not mean that it was wrecked.

Nope it doesn't...but are the jams/trunk/under hood/engine bay painted as well?

For the price (not that great) I'd find something more OEM.

It looks like a cheap paint job. The driver's side S2000 looks like it was put on wrong too.

Yea being repainted a different color, even if it's a good paint job should not increase the value of a car...in fact it should depreciate it. If it's a good paint job, you like the color and everything else on the car is in excellent shape I might pay $11,000 if I was looking for an Ap1.

That is Electron Blue Pearl (B95P). I know because I owned a 2001 Honda Prelude factory Electron Blue Pearl for 7 years. That is exactly how this paint looks in sunlight.
Very hard to tell with digital pictures, though.

True. But EBP looks the same in any digital picture when the car is parked in direct sunlight and I've seen thousands of digital pictures of the color. I'd give it a 90% match.
