Re: sonni_kuba 2001 'Mugen' Accord

Keep in mind that the taller the spoiler, the lower your car will have to be to look good. In fact, I am thinking of switching to 215/40/18 tires next summer to get it down a little lower.

you think it would look ok with a 2.25" drop or is that still too high lmao

Lets put it this way, it would look OK, but it would look better if it was lower :)
If you are gonna go ahead with this, you may wanna paint the top horizontal part black like it is in the Mugen RR. I was thinking about it, but then again I think I'd have to paint the hood, roof, and trunk black too to get it right.

im planning on getting F&F Type 1's later on when i can afford it lol and my car is black. and i found one that looks really cool but could you verify if it would fit? i think it should but i want to be sure haha

Exhaust sounds good. Just 2.5 piping to a muffler, no resonator or anything? That's what I have except only 1 magnaflow muffler.

Thanks guys. Just a single resonator, in place of the stock Accord resonator, I believe this is the one they used..

Like the sound, not too loud, except when you really step on it. She'll sound better yet though with a 6MT (2014).

Wait yours is a v6 right? I thought on our cars we have 2 resonators? So you just run 1 14" to 2 vibrant mufflers?

Yup, it goes Cat -> 2.5" SS Pipe -> Resonator -> 2.5" SS Pipe -> Y Pipe -> 2.5" SS Pipes -> Vibrant Mufflers

Next time the car is up on a hoist, I'll snap up some pics of her underside.
