I just bought a 1998 Accord, and it's pretty stock and plain. I'm thinking of just doing a few paint mods to get started because I'm a broke college student. The car is black so I'm thinking of painting the emblems and calipers red or yellow.
Any other things to just make it look a little better that is cheap and easy?

Paint calipers, yes.

Paint emblems, no.

Blackhouse the headlights. That will really make the front end look better, especially with a black car.

Well as I just took a look at the emblems again, the ex emblem is already gone and the paint where it was is gone too. I think I'll take the accord emblem off and leave the h's alone. & get rid of the grandma mud flaps.

I like the light idea but it seems a bit complicated, lol. But it might be something I end up doing.
