What is with the ghost graphics or is that a light trick.

Bl@ck 06-05-2003 04:33 PM

is that some kind of graphic down the side or just the way the light hit it?

otherwise not too bad except for the picnic table on the trunk lid and the alcheeezas

Nightshade 06-05-2003 04:34 PM

I agree with Magik

Wing = :nono:
Altezas = :nono:

But overall a very clean car

EliteHaccord 06-05-2003 04:35 PM

Yea that is a Ghost graphic, its painted on there its not a decal its the actual paint, yea i dont like the wing too much either but I do like the tail's i have all clear ones but they are a little illegal,

EliteHaccord 06-05-2003 04:36 PM

Well what would look good No wing Stock Tail's??

JimCarryFanz 06-05-2003 04:51 PM

Looks nice. Wing, tail, paint, wheels, it's all good. It's your car and you put what you wanna put in your car. Don't let anybody make you think otherwise.

:thumbup:

MrChad 06-05-2003 04:51 PM

OEM or other conservative wing, and non-Altezza tails.
However, its always best if you find your own style rather then ours.

03accordcoupe 06-05-2003 05:07 PM

Altezzas + Huge Wing= Rice

It's clean otherwise though...

aux 06-05-2003 05:11 PM

randomtask77 06-05-2003 05:13 PM

accordtuner 06-05-2003 07:36 PM

mind if i borrow ur car 4 groceries.?:ohfawk:

Josh M 06-05-2003 07:39 PM

Its decent.....it was looking pretty good before I got to the altezzas and the wing.........take those off....and get rid of the graphic down the side and I'd say you'd have apretty pimpin ride :)

drmmrboy87 06-05-2003 07:43 PM

I dig the rims (I've got the same ones lol). the wing is bad considering its a front wheel drive, and your losing HP from it... I like the painted lips though, mine went in for painting the lips and all a few days ago. What's your suspension set up? I need to get mine done soon (springs , maybe shocks, camber kit) let me know though

jschmid 06-05-2003 07:48 PM

No one said anything about the shaved door handles. :D I love the shaved look, but I'd go without the wing and tails.

Nice paint (minus the graphic), nice drop, nice shave job. :cool:

H-Accord-22 06-05-2003 07:57 PM

Nice drop, the shaving make the ride look like a sleeper, I'd ditch the wings, tezzas are OK

whoaitslen2 06-05-2003 08:38 PM

A bit too fast and furious for me.. but hey if youre happy with it Im happy for you.

e3NiNe 06-05-2003 10:36 PM

i think i see LED washer nozzles ... but the wing and tails have to go ... if you like it keep it ... if you have any 2nd thoughts, ditch it.

captainsaveaho 06-06-2003 06:56 PM

i like everything about it, good job man.

96JdmAccord 06-06-2003 07:19 PM

Looks pretty clean, I like the painted lip, skirts, and rear lip, I think if you dident have the flame thing on the side and wing and altezza's it would look very good. Im trying to figure out why you have your exhaust on the left side? :thinking:

AccordCutie 06-06-2003 08:12 PM

It's nice except for the graphics, altezzas and the wing

v6master 06-06-2003 10:21 PM

blah......not my style, but I've seen worse :)

AccordCoup94 06-07-2003 01:45 AM

not bad.. but yea.. just the wing and altezzas. one question though.. when you shave your side moldings, do you just remove them and sand down the metal and fill it with bondo? also, do you have to repaint the entire car since its all along the side or can you "blend" the new paint to the original paint. im thinking the blend would be cheaper since your not repainting the whole car. i always wanted to know this. how much would each step cost??

AcuraFanatic 06-07-2003 08:41 AM

Lose the spoler and the altezzas, and I'd love it.

I've always found the trick to modding is you want to accentuate on the cars strong points and not create weak points. It should look like it came from the factory.

95AccordEXR 06-07-2003 08:44 AM

had problems with keeping your trunk closed at high speeds did ya? I'm sure that wing solved that problem for ya

drmmrboy87 06-07-2003 09:48 AM

did you know that any wing that gives you extra downforce, slows you down off the line?

Mike Oxbigger 06-07-2003 02:18 PM

that wing is hideous. tezzas are wack too.

GotBoost? 06-08-2003 07:39 PM

You know there actually is a purpose to those wings on fwd cars, but I doubt it is used for that purpose on this car.

But im sure you allll already knew that, right ;)

decibel_dj 06-09-2003 06:57 AM

not feeling the wing and the tails (mid wing would look better) outside of that love the rest especially the color (wanted that color got white instead)
