Here's my car when I first got it


This is what it looks like now


Im working on black housing headlights, mugen style grill w/custom twist and painting the skirts, lips and brakes as we speak. More to come.

 

tint the windows

 

yeah, I know, smoke tint is in the works

 

make the chrome trim around the windows painted black or match them . and whats the twist, the middle part of the grill?

 

hmm, I'll give that some thought. You'll see what the twist is when I finish it

 

And im just getting started:naughty:

 

Looks good. The drop and the rims are a welcome enhancement to the looks of the vehicle. Keep up the good work.

I'd start focusing on the interior. I love doing custom interior work, it's where you spend the most of the time and can be the most unique. Just don't do something tacky. Exterior should be simple and elegant (like you've done), and now start making the interior unique. :thumbup:

 

I haven't done much to interior, removed all grey plastic trim on doors and small vents on dash and painted them black. That's about it so far. Now I am working on a Mugen style grill, black housing headlights, gonna paint my lips and skirts either black or graphite to match the rims, and gonna paint my calipers and drums gloss black. After that stuff gets done, im gonna work on the powertrain. I want to get a MagnaFlow cat back, intake is on its way, maybe some headers. Thats about all im gonna do to increase power. I haven't done much interior work ever, what kind of stuff have you done, give me some ideas.

 

I honestly haven't done much to the Accord yet. I would have listed my plans for interior work, but my signature is already too long as is. I'd like to get a hold of a Momo shift boot/knob and pedals. Sparco seating is a possibilty, but I may try to do some custom leather upholstering. I've done it before...you need to find a good distributor and buy sheets of high quality leather (or suede, suede is another possibility).

Just be creative I guess. Custom (tasteful) gauges, aluminum trim (genuine) etc. are all good. It can get pricey, but I think it's worth it.

 

Oh ok, I thought you meant like custom door panels and 3-D flames on the dashh: stuff like that. I do plan on getting some ACAutotechnic Reverse Indiglo guages, cutting down my shifter about an inch, inch and a half and putting a shift knob and short shift adapter on it. And instead of getting a guage bezel for it, im gonna paint the stock one graphite, all plastic trim will be painted graphite and clear coated, gonna get some racing pedals(the kind you have to bolt to the pedal). And when I grow some balls, I think the blue led dash conversion for the heat/ac cluster.
