New to 6th Gen forums. Went from a 5th gen (my first official ride) to a 2001 Expedition Eddie Bauer (had the front end ripped off by an oncoming Hummer H2) and now to the 6th Gen I helped my cousin build. He's rockin an '07 BMW X3 :( but I've got a pretty good starting point now :)

2000 Accord Coupe EX 4Cyl.
Body:
OEM Deep Velvet Blue with House of Kolors Gold Pearl
VIS Racing Octane Front Bumper
Ground Designs 2000 Black Widow Side Skirts & Rear Bumper (Molded)
Shaved Hood Squirters
Shaved Honda Taillights
Shaved Rear Sidemarkers
1998 Toyota Supra Taillights Molded into rear bumper
Left Exhaust cut-out molded shut
Carbon Fiber B-Pillars
OEM Rear Deck Wing
Mercedes SLR Style Mirrors with LED Lights
Pearl Headlight Housings (Not black, sortof a purplish-blue with a yellow beam)

Suspension/Rollers:
Arospeed 2" Drop Springs
18" Racing Hart Z5000 Look-A-Likes (D'Vinci)
225/40/18ZR Kumho Ecstas

Engine:
Stock F23
AEM Short Ram Intake
Optima Red Top
High Output 150 Amp Alternator
Custom Piped Exhaust with Apex'i N-1 Style Muffler

Interior:
Tan Leather with V6 Coupe Headrests
Fiberglassed/Painted trim pieces to match exterior
Dealer Option Tint

I.C.E.:
Panasonic CQ-VD6503 Double-Din Touch Screen Headunit
Pioneer Premier front speakers driven by a Pioneer 2 Channel Amp
Pioneer Premier rear speakers driven by a Pioneer 2 Channel Amp
3 Audiobahn A1206T 12" High Compression Subwoofers
Audiobahn A2300HCT High Current Subwoofer Amplifier
Audiobahn 3 Farad Capacitor
Optima Yellow Top
Playstation 2

Probably more I'm not thinking of. I'm so glad I was able to pull so much crap (I.C.E.) from the Expedition after it was totalled.

I know most Honda forum members (including myself) prefer more subtle, clean styles, so please try not to flame too much!

"all show, no go."

thats the 6th gen way lol.

welcome man, looks like you put ALOT of work into your ride, defintely unqiue, cant say I feel the supra lights in the bumper, but definately original and the work looks clean.

*edit* and dont worry bout being flamed, every one here's respectful for the most part, its more the attitude than the car that determines a ricer. its all trends back in the late 90's the agressive stlye was in. now the clean jdm look is in. its all a fad, do what you like!

i do have mesh grills in there, they're set back and painted to match so I guess they're hard to see. and yeah the f23 is sad but it's kinda cool to get the "WTF ARE THOSE FOR?!?" questions when everyone sees my collection of 0 guage wire and fuse holders/circuit breakers.

Ha HA, that's funny

Welcome to the site. Nice work you've done so far
Personally, I like the Supra lights

and sad :(

Id like them better if they were actually were where the original tails were, not in the bumper.

i was originally thinking that but then i wouldve had to hack up the trunk lid and extend into the trunk to cover the exposed rear of the tails and whatnot. it could be done but when my cousin did it he was pushin the budget as it is. it's so good having family with money that will mod as you tell them :)
