Just got my Magnaflow muffler welded. Finally, some sound.


Took off my front lip to get it repainted and clearbra'd.

Nice.

How much did you get quoted for the clear bra? And what brand?

I'm gonna get mine done next Thursday for $150. Figured I gotta pay if I want quality.

Well, while the Accord is being worked on I took the liberty to buy myself some goodies.

Magnalfow muffler.
Red/clear tails.
High-flow cat converter. (mine was naaahaaasty)
Door lock actuators. (been turning key for three years :lawl:)
Two front rotors.

Now I await the finality of the build and derp around in the Ranger.

What model Magnaflow?

Sweet, pics?

Definitely. But if you get a quality paint job and a quality clear protection, you'll never have to do anything with it again. Money saved in my eyes.

I think professional paint job I got quoted $120, and the clear bra is estimated around $130 or so I think. It's VentureShield.

Damn, glad nothing happened.

So I went back in and fixed my clock and climate control. Thanks to Chris' advice, It all works now. Now I just need a new head unit so the lights will match :lawl:

Decided to pull out my V2 intake and put the stock airbox (minus resonator) back in. Will be posting the FS thread shortly. Also replaced my old broken auxiliary cord and removed the XM antenna that the old owner had installed. Pulled back my carpet on the drivers side floorboard to find a colony of ants. Hundreds of them with a ton of eggs. A few minutes with a shop vac and some Raid and I rid myself of the infestation.

^you really want out and bought some ebay black housed lights... you coulda just did the DIY

Had them on my old '99 accord before getting my current '00. Wreck I had been in had broken the housings on the factory headlights, so I bought these to replace the factory ones. Just finally took the time to put them in this accord.
