Went to Lake Lanier and snapped some...

[Nittanys1]

I was out this weekend and took a ride up to the lake with the accord. Snapped a few pics while in shock of the low levels of the lake! I have fished on it a few weeks ago but its still really low and I haven't been to this one ramp since May.


Here are the pics of the newest mod :D

[13Bracer]

nice pics man:goodjob:
car looks good

[WickedIXMR]

Wow your car is extremely gay.

[KDM>JDM]

i like the front bumper; needs fogs. an the lake does look low in that one pic

[koukis14]

My opinion:

Change wheels, lose mesh, lose hood pins.

[Nitro]

looking good Trav :cheers: ......just that little gap over the grill & hood.....i'm not feeling

[koukis14]

Lose side skirts, and probably rear bumber as well. I like the front end because it is Acuraish and could look badass if cleaned up. Like mentioned above fog lights would help.

[Nittanys1]

yeah i have fogs for it, they have been molded for them but the body shop molded them too far back and they hit the bumper rail when installed so I need to get that taken care of..



My opinion:

Change wheels, lose mesh, lose hood pins.

working on the wheels and the hood LOCK are the newest thing added im not going to take them out of my cf hood...thats just dumb..its a safety issue....

yeah nothing I can do about that...

[NewGen33]

Do your own thing man, cool background.

[boostedb16]

lol when i saw your sig i thought your car was a evo. looks good to me.

[Nittanys1]

the front is an Acura TSX knock off...so that y...the side skirts are molded on so im not touching that...I'm pretty much done with the car anyways...

[Nittanys1]

Do your own thing man, cool background.

thanks man, i wasnt even going to post the pics but i was bored...i took the pics for me...

[WickedIXMR]

working on the wheels and the hood LOCK are the newest thing added im not going to take them out of my cf hood...thats just dumb..its a safety issue....

LOL at safety issue! Ive gone 160 with my carbon hood with no pins. Doesnt seem like your car would go anywhere near that. I think the bumber would fly off before the hood does.

[Maniac1]

LOL @ Wicked!

[Nittanys1]

I'm not risking it...simple as that so yeah it is a safety issue, the hood does wobble a little at highway speeds thus why I added them....and who the hell would take locks off when there are not holes in the hood....ohh and i dont recall saying my car could do 160.....go back to your evo and have fun....

[WickedIXMR]

I dont recall saying you said your car can do that. Just said that i went 160 without hood pins so i think you would be fine without them.

[MP05]

I like the front end. The side skirts are a little too much, but other than that looks good. To bad the lake is so low or else the pics would look alot better. Not saying the pics are bad. It is just aweful to look at that lake and see how low it is.

Almost forgot is the mesh in the grills two different styles or are the pics not showing it right?

Props on the car......

[Nittanys1]

OK so when my hood brakes loose your going to pay for the damages? yeah thats what I thought...

[Nittanys1]

Almost forgot is the mesh in the grills two different styles or are the pics not showing it right?

Props on the car......

yeah they are two diff...its what came with the kit...mehh what you gonna do...i'll take i tout if/when i get the turbo....

[Daccord93]

How about just letting the man do his own thing. I like it. Its his car and his work of art, ok so you may not like, who cares, honestly.

[MP05]

Sounds like you have good plans for it...Def. keep updating us...

[HeLLo iM iZzY]

Lose the wheels, sides, fill the gap between the grill and hood, and also work on the mesh. It doesn't seem like its cut to fit.

Other then that, looks good.

[Nittanys1]

the grill came with the bumper...its cut to fit.... the gap stays....I'm working on the wheels but am having a time trying to find 19s the clear the big brake kit and are 4 lug.....

[_Christian_]

i really hate your car

[Nittanys1]

thanks...i was hoping the best would come out in IA...it did :D

[white_rice]

^^ lol let the man be i saw his car at nopi its pretty nice in person ...**** the man i like your car

[.blank cd]

Shoulda hit me up man, i was off today, always in the mood to snap some pics!

[Nittanys1]

read fool...lol :D It was this past weekend and aren't you like WAY away from my area?

[.blank cd]

welp, thats what i get for reading. Sometimes i dont mind the drive. as long as the weather is nice

[Nittanys1]

lol, the weather was amazing that Sat morning!

I Rep'd for all those who deserved it!

[MeanMugen]

chicken wire is a ricer no no take it out!
nice pictures

[Nittanys1]

i have had chicken wire in the past...this isnt chicken wire....what else would you put there? not like you can find sh*t anywhere at local shops...

[mushroom_toy]

I knew i had seen your car before around Gainesville lol. I say loose the mesh or paint it black or somehting...it just draws to much attention to that gap/etc.

[deutshwise]

LOL at safety issue! Ive gone 160 with my carbon hood with no pins. Doesnt seem like your car would go anywhere near that. I think the bumber would fly off before the hood does.
someones a complete badass................doing 160 with a carbon fiber hood. living on the edge. lets do 160 together in our cars while drinking some mtn. dew and listening to some "highway into the danger zone". i think that would be extreme

[deutshwise]

to each his own. not my style but its not my car so who cares. keep doing what you want to do to it and keep it posted

[j0nbunklah0m]

looks good! nice pics i think u should paint the mesh black just my .02

[j0nbunklah0m]

or maybe u could cut the top of the bumper and have the messh go all the way up to the hood? :thinking::2cents:

[Nittanys1]

naw I did that on my last bumper...it looks like crap when the hood is opened at the shows...and doesnt look that good when closed...The hood doesnt bother me at all cuz there isnt anything that can be done to it...thats the way it is...

[.blank cd]

Did you ever buy the wheels from that other guy with the black accord?

[Nittanys1]

naw...but i do still have my 19s sitting in their box from when I bought them...

[.blank cd]

I say throw those 19s on there, or get those ones i was talking about. those both will look quite sick

[Nittanys1]

yeah but i have said in the past the my 19s dont clear the brakes and the other ones your talking about r not big enough and have seen better days...

[.blank cd]

tried extended lugs and spacers?

[DUBSf22c]

fix that hood to grille gap.. wow that drives me insane

[Turbodude06]

Car looks really good +1 for style and not JDM......

[Leisa]

Car looks good Travis!



and yeah Lake Lanier is sad.. We live about 5 mins from the dock on Exit 16 and I drive out there sometimes to check things out.. its sad!

[Nittanys1]

fix that hood to grille gap.. wow that drives me insane

u obviously don't read....there is nothing to fix thats the way it is and will remain....

[mocha latte cupcake]

do your thing trav, i had the pins on my spec when i totalled it was a good thing its the only thing that kept it from coming through my windshield, broke off @ the back and the latch portion broke off in the lock god bless the pins! lol

[Fr33way]

LOL at safety issue! Ive gone 160 with my carbon hood with no pins. Doesnt seem like your car would go anywhere near that. I think the bumber would fly off before the hood does.

It's more the design/weakness of the latch assembly than anything. He also has a gap that probably sees a good bit of lift at even highway speeds.

[osiriskidd]

i've always been a fan of your car nittany. grats on the cleaned up look and keep it up.

lol @ wicked having his head up his ass.

[Nittanys1]

^thxs! I did have a lot of wind going under the hood causing it to wobble very little but I was tire of taking the chance of having a problem. the gap in the hood doesn't have that much of an effect its the big hold in the kit just below that, that takes in most of the air...

[SloWRX]

should have pushed the car into the lake lolol

[blackboi50]

yo Trav......the car looks tight and always has.......Fack the haterz!!!! Hope to see u at some shows this year!!:D.......1

[DUBSf22c]

X 2 ... Props for not becoming a JDMsheep and staying unique. Bump for another 6thGEN accord:goodjob:

[.blank cd]

should have pushed the car into the lake lololshould have done without that comment dude. kids these days

[JITB]

ive had 1 hood fly up on me, from a faulty latch, and ive been in 1 other car where the cf hood flew up b/c of a ****ty latch.. and another friends integra cf hood flipped up on him. every since than ive ben a hood pin fan on a aftermarket hood..

[Nittanys1]

thank you....i had run the cf hood on the car for over a year and I knew it was time to install the hood pins that I had purchased about the same time i got the hood...not worth the risk and I like the look of the locks over the pins!

I just noticed that all subaru owners hating on me...damn i guess I shouldn't post up my fun subaru wagon I got recently....

[JITB]

alot of them are upset that there cars look the same.... i dont blame them

[gen2freak]

[Random Hero]

Try taking pictures of your car actually in the lake next time.

Would be more interesting for sure.

[Nittanys1]

real original....yet someone has already said that....i know you can do better then that!

[carbongs]

let the haters hate bro, you know you got mad love from lots of people. the only person you need to impress is yourself! it is your car, do as you wish!

[Nittanys1]

thx Tony, I still find the comment about the hood pins being bad the best...lol

[carbongs]

yeah i'll have mine on pretty soon, next couple of months soon

[93DA Integra]

Ha Ha nvm i am leaving this thread

[blackboi50]

Ha Ha nvm i am leaving this thread

kthnxsgdbyeee!!!!!........*geez*.......1

[thedream2147]

more props to you man...JDMSheep annoy me...originality seems to have been lost in the Honda world.

[.blank cd]

yeah i'll have mine on pretty soon, next couple of months soonHood LOCKS right? not pins

[Nittanys1]

yeah he is getting hood locks, different then mine tho.

[.blank cd]

Locks are so much cleaner. I think they make carbon covered locks for people w/ carbon hoods. I would do locks if (when) i had (i get) a carbon hood. I have alot of lift at that point too

[.blank cd]

And for god sakes, are you coming to the BBQ this time???

[blacknightteg]

he's one awards with it, so there isnt a damn thing wrong with his car. i like it man

[Tree]

clean honda loven

[Nittanys1]

yeah they do make cf hood locks but they are no clear coated so will weather fast. I didn't want to get the cf ones either as I didn't feel they looked as nice! I may come to the BBQ...i just never know what i'm doing till the last second.

[Nittanys1]

here are what the fogs look like when installed...
