Hey guys like most of the other guys, I started out first with a 98 accord in 05 but then switched to a tC and it got totaled... With the insurance money i ended up buying this accord from a craigslist ad i saw for 500 dollars.. I saw the potential it had and snatched it right away back in Nov and began work as soon as I could on a college student budget. But before I got the car I was going through some forums and found a lot of amazing looking vehicles that swayed me back to a honda (Keychain, iHazSnail etc) I have been reading up on this forum for months now.. I started in V6P reading some of those guys threads and found this site by luck.. I'm so glad that I did cause I love this site and all the info I have come use on my car and have already planned a lot for my car in the near future. Here's my baby and I hope you guys like it.. WHERE ALL MY NYC PEOPLE AT lol :naughtyrun:


Engine/ Performance
- Stock F23
- DC sports Short ram intake

Suspension
-Blackworks racing coilovers (2inch drop.. would do more but come on.. its NYC!! lol)

Interior / ICE
-Clarion head unit
-Alpine interior speakers
- rest is stock

Lighting
- Ebay black housing head lights

Exterior
- Foldable side mirrors installed (someone side swiped mines off and ran)
- Front 01/02 coupe bumper and hood conversion (done last weekend :naughty:)
- Nexxen tires 205/40/17
- Forgot the name of the rims but will update with the name of it ASAP since it came with the car.. if you guys know it would help as well :hihi:

Future Plans
- Rotora rotors
- Hawks ceramic pads
- Exhaust install (already purchased)
- Rebuild motor for boost
- Paint car Nighthawk Black!!

Here's the pics from old (top) to new (bottom) i hope im doing this right lol (the 3rd pic is when i finally dropped it.. sorry for the car being dirty)

eh the wheels aren't too bad, ive seen worse. At least they're 17s and you've got a good drop so it looks clean. With the front painted, the tails red'n'clear, and the car cleaned up, it'll look really nice!

Welcome man. How did I know I was going to see those lights when I opened the thread lol. You can also get the red/clears from TASauto, a very dependable site. Have a good one.
