What'd you do to your accord today?

^I think that's the first time I've ever heard hubcaps described as 'sick'. haha

My dome, courtesy, and map LED's finally came in. They look good, love the natural white. But I think I need a bigger one for the dome, like one of those ones with the board.

Not all today but just did this all on the long weekend. It's hard to get much done working nights 6 days a week.

Put on a different front bumper w/ lip as the the one on there was damaged and spraybombed when I bought the car.

Did the timing belt, balance shaft belt and water pump (only 100 KM on it) but since I didn't know the history of the belts and 100k + 14 years I figured it was safe to go ahead and do it. It turned out that it was a good decision and not a complete waste.

Oil change, MTF change

Did the wires, cap, rotor, pcv valve

Seafoamed it

Installed my deck (Apline CDA 117) and front component speakers. (cutting the door was scary)

Changed the shift knob out and the boot as well.

PS yeah disgusting wheel gap.

tinting then lowering are the next moves

Pics of the new, current LED in the dome light? I dont think mine has the "board" thing you're talking about and it's hella bright. Even with my 15%, you can see damn near everything, lol. I kinda dont like it for that reason. If Im trynig to be sneaky, or I dont want folks looking in my car at night, I have to turn it off, lol.

Wid, where in Ontario are you?

Definately need to deal with that wheel gap.

What suspension setup do you plan on going with?

haha...”sneaky”. Reminds me of that guy from Mr. Deeds

The dome LED is certainly bright enough. It's just that when it’s on and you look at it the dome lens, you can see the concentration of light at the center where the LED’s are (hotspot). Of course I guess that has more to do with the distance the LED’s are from the lens instead of the arrangement of the bulbs. So maybe the same thing would happen with the board ones, it’d be just a bigger square of concentrated light or something. Not sure if that makes sense, I’ll take a photo.

Which festoon LED are you using in the dome light?

 

[Mikey]

I dont recall. Lol. I'll have to look. I think I got them from SBL....

my driver side front tire is kinda worn, so i bought a tire with 50% tread for $40. Would this cause a pull in one direction, since this tire is newer than my passenger front tire?

I can go to local Canadian Tire and pay $20 to change the tire. or pay $40 to do tire rotations as well.

OR

Put on my summer rims but fork out $400 at least for tires?

decisions decisions decisions..........

oh and i got 12.6 km/l with more than half of time AC use. I guess my car becomes more efficient in the summer lol.
