Good lord, how many months will you be paying this work off? And on top of all that, you say you are taking over half the payments on your mom's Mercedes?? I'm no financial expert, but this doesn't sound very smart to me. Of course, I don't know you well enough to make that call. I suppose you could be making over $100k a year in some great job, but then again, you said you were still in school, so I don't know what to think...
Someone's being rude...
anyway, taking 1/2 the payment of my mom's ride probably won't happen. knowing my father, he'll probably just give it to me. and as for owing 18k on it...that's what happens when you buy a new car. ...think about that one... and i only pay 350 a month (petty cash) so aint no thang but a chicken wing...
i do buget very well, thank you very much, and i have extra money after the 1200 a month and car payment, etc...
1200 a month is what I will pay to pay it fast. i'll probably pay for like 3 or 4 months. that's it...no sweat off my back...
oh, and by the way, school means college. I'm going to get my bachelors and masters....

it's just the tail conversion is what's getting me. i know you're building a show car, but IS300 / altezzas aren't the best option. there are nicer tails to swap to. [/B]
I know what you mean...I want to do a conversion but the IS300 lights are nice. I just don't know if it would look good on an accord...mercedes lights? Any ideas? Seriously, thank you for your input I was just thinking about that the other day like if that was really what I wanted. All I know is that I want to do the taillight conversion because I really do not like the tail lights.

Any suggestions for little 'ol me???

Relax a bit. Don't take things so personal. I really don't think people care if you are a girl or a guy. The "I'm a girl, don't look down on me just cause I'm a girl" additude in every thread you post in is getting old. Not trying to be mean, I just think you shouldn't take every comment personal. Accordsleeper's comments had nothing to do with you being a girl or a guy.

About the work, since you asked for opinions, I'm not really into the show car thing, so I can think of much better things than 1200 a month for 2-3 months. I'd do the screen, but all the fiberglass stuff just doesn't seem worth it to me.

But it is your car, do what you want.

i just dont see how the IS300's tails could go on your coupe successfully... the rear end of the coupe seems way to sqaure for the IS300 lights, and i just dont see them fitting.

Please DON'T put altezzas on your car. Other than that, I like what your doing to your Accord Linda. Your going to have one nice show car once its done. :thumbup:

Altezzas look bad on Accords! :barf:

Take a chill pill Linda, jschmid is cool and has alot of knowledge (he's one of the most helpful members on this site). Trust me don't get on his bad side, you are taking things personal. You might want to reconsider even posting your car pics, it might be to intense for you.

Remember your on the internet and half of these negative people would not talk to you like this face to face.

Know the difference between people who give constructive criticism and people who are just flat out negative peeps.

Sorry sweetie, I'm not being rude, just realistic. Why is it every time a pretty girl hears something she doesn't like from someone, they're being "rude?" I've never understood that... Anyway, YOU were the one who started this thread looking for opinions from others, we didn't just seek you out to offer them unsolicited.

I didn't want to say it in my last post, but I thought I caught a whiff of poor-little-rich-girl syndrome going on here, and you've pretty much confirmed my suspicions with your comment about how daddy will probably just give you your mom's old Benz to drive. Gee, must be nice not to have to EARN things...

And please don't condescend to someone you don't even know about how $18,000 in car payments is "what happens when you buy a new car...think about that one..." Sorry dear, but I've thought about it plenty. I just bought a new 03 Accord Coupe EX-V6 a month ago. I paid $16,000 down and financed the rest, a little over 10 grand. So, do you still live at home? I only ask because for most of us living in the real world $350 a month is most definitely not "petty cash" and you never mentioned rent or a mortgage payment. Speaking of school, I just finished my PhD earlier this year and got a pretty good job here in Athens, but I can assure you that amount of money is not as insignificant as you would make it out to be, not to me and the other hard-working people I know. Look, if you are a spoiled little rich girl, that's fine, you certainly wouldn't be the only one I've known (I've dated plenty of sorority chicks in this town who roll brand-new BMW convertibles their parents bought them), but don't just assume that everyone else lives life as you seem to...
