well it took me long enough but i am finally getting around to making my build thread
i picked up my 08 Honda accord EX-L NAV Coupe 5-spd manual in October 2013
it had a new clutch and some body work done before i picked it up and man was it beautiful.
so after a few weeks of having it i did a cruse of the maine coast with my car club before winter hit.
so then i began modding it to make it mine.
hids went in ( and have been replaced with better quality hids from the retro fit source)
so then i got good news in relation to my career and moved off to Milan IL for my position at John Deere cylinder as a manufacture engineer, also my plates were finally switched over
so i packed my stuff up and moved on out
so then i got a mugen rep grill and painted it chrome like so and ran that for a couple of months
fogs were installed as well
found a used greddy cat back exhaust for it and i jumped on the deal
then my wheels came in Enkie GP5"S in silver machined finished 18x8 +40 offset
and whats wheels with out a drop so megan ez's coils were installed quickly after
and man did it set my car off great
did the roof and lip spoiler next and spoted an stock accord later that day to compare against
got tired of that grill so i tried something different and.....well....it was different
didn't really car for it so i got another black mugen grill and rocked that fro a while while i came up with something better.
meet up with some other accord guys during a meet out here and got some great pics
cam up with another idea and tried it i liked the look but i need to redo the painting on it
i suffered from the dreaded arm rest bubble so i fixed that as well,
so then i went to Import alliance for the weekend so i preped the car and rove down
had a blast there and actually met some other 8th gen owners there
h&r 25 mm spacers on the rear
cars and coffee
sti lip spoiler installed and loving it
these cars can actually hold a ton of stuff. i got all 4 wheels 4 struts and rear control arms all in with no problems
our last get together for the year called fall tour, had a blast doing this and will do it again
and added my own twist to the led light bar and added 5 way function to it with white and red leds
and here is the diy for it
