Good god, I just read that other thread. I am disgusted at the immaturity.

To the OP: If you want a nice looking ride, just keep it simple. Start with things you know you can handle, such as wheels/tires. Then work your way towards suspension after reading a few articles and what not. You'd be surprised at what a nice suspension and some decent wheels can do for a car.

this is one of the results that came up when I used google...I wouldn't run those rims but the style is IMO, cool. Also, the less body mods (body-kits, spoilers, hoods, etc.) that you do, the more money you can save for some performance parts and still have a good looking car

And matt is exactly right, keep it simple with maybe some wheels/tires and upgrade your suspension also...

Yet again this is me, but I personally would just put some wheels on it, and then start tearing into my engine and suspension....the more money spent on that the better.

Ok, I think I have talked your ear off long enough, I should go find somethin else to do.

sorry im in a little on the topic but to be honest, you really need to stay away from andy auto sport, they have extremely poor quality products most of which don't fit. i you are serious about looks then get things such as a front lip, rear lip, and side skirts, black housing headlights off of the SiR accord, just simple stuff like that will give your car a face lift

Is andys really that bad? They sell name brand parts....or are you talking about their parts...and not those name brands...

I have had some friends order from there but its been all name brand stuff....

I am confused! lol

the name brand stuff is fine but the people that buy the off brand no name stuff usually don't get what they expected...

Well, I drive an american car (87 turbo lebaron), but i'm not here to troll. But i have to agree it was a little snappy to automatically assume that we're all here to bash. I just have free time and enjoy talking about cars.

As for the OP. Dude i have to agree. Sort out the engine stuff before you worry too much about the cosmetics.

But to answer the question. I agree with the thorough wash and wax. And in addition to that, sweep and shampoo the carpets. Clean the windows really good, clean and wipe down all the plastic surfaces with armor all protectant. You'll be amazed what that'll do for it.

As for wheels, by all means, avoid wallmart/autozone rims. They're cheaply made and look really shitty, and they don't fit on honda wheels anyway. Save up the money and get some 16 inch wheels. I'd go for something low key, but it's your car.

Looking through the post history, I have absolutely NO problems with any of anonymoususer or tunerguy22's posts. tunerguy22, PM me if both are your accounts and you want them merged. Blanco, lay off him unless we have proof he/she is turbododgelkjasdfgaf.

OP, something to remember when you're trying to think of ways to make your ride look hotter: when it's sitting in a dark parking deck, the more money it looks like you've put into, the quicker someone's going to try to take something OUT of it... just my .02

i dont own any V8. every vehicle i own is 4cyl. working on a DD E85 conversion -18 psi with no intercooler, cause im slick like that.
also have a hybrid 2.2 shooting for 600+ whp when its all said and done.
my cousin races hondas in SCCA. has a CRX and a Prelude you guys would give a few fingers to own. i dont hate the cars you guys own, but i do hate the attitude i see. the car i have i have because i like them, my personal preference, same as yours, but i dont bash every car out there because of my preference. i do appreciate nice cars, HP is HP, doesnt matter the name plate.

ive reached the point where i dont trash other people's pride and joy, id much rather help them. i know when i was younger i remember 2 types of people in the performance scene- those who would bash on , make fun of everybody and in general be an ass. then there are those who would say "hey bro, um you got some issues goin on here, lemme show ya the right way" which type are you?

oh by the way me an tunerguy are definately NOT the same ip or the same person. unless someones been sneaking in my house or parking out in my driveway with a wireless lap top.

Dont know to much bout the older accords but maybe like a 93 front end conversion would look good, and "almost" always jdm oem parts make the car look completely re-done. I added a jdm oem lipkit/fog lights for my 5th gen prelude and it changed the look of the whole car. Or you could get some nice wheels not to overdone, a nice drop and a full lip kit, that would look great in my opinion. As for power, idk how well this fits, but you could always look into an h22 swap. Just my thoughts tho.

It was late... I think I got all the zillions of tabs mixed up last night. anonymous and tunerguy22 are definitely different people. Going back to check more after I close a few tabs down.

I only have this account too, but for some reason, an unnamed person assumed i'm someone else and decided to give me negative rep points because of it. And i for one think it's bullshit. "as if i wouldn't know" what? that i'm another person? Yeah. I think you didn't know.
