    Default History Thread ....

    We'll, my car is slowly but surely evolving and I thaught i'd get a little History thread going to keep track of it. By the End of summer I will have some brand new pics with a few changes and some freshness....

    I baught the car as an 96 Honda Accord Coupe EX SOHC VTEC F22b In June of 2002.... She was spotless with 34,000 original miles. First two External Mods I did, Mugen Grill and SiR lip:


    After 18's the Monster Truck statis had to be fixed with some Tein SS coils ASAP


    August 2003-






    First Show...Sept 2003 NOPI Nationals

    the first lip i had was a fiberglass Accord SiR replica made in HK.. i smashed it messing around late one night doing handbrake drifts.... hahha.. I then put on a Ebay TypeR lip which lasted all of a few months (crap) but the whole time i was looking for the real thing....
    i've spent the next few years searching for the actualy honda version!!
    ie....

    Finally coped a few from a guy i met in thailand.. they get a lot of second hand jdm ish....




    so those are gettin painted now and also got the jdm yellow fogs
    and some honda access window visors and new wheels coming soon.

    thanx a lot guys for the support....... keeps me moving..hahha. so many peeps are always like..
    "you spend all your money on an ACCORD?!" ...
    but eh, the 5th gen accord body has always been one of my favorite cars,
    so when i found this one (my 3rd one actually) I new it was ON!!
    Its been a long road with a few bumps, but when i drive her on a nice smooth road, its all worth it.
    -and she will hang with a lot of cars that don't expect it!!

    the cops in that pic where on freedom prkway and i just pulled up and asked them to take a pic........
    they where really cool about it actually, some guy ran from them
    while i was there and they had to go chacing after him.

    here's some more whoring!!


    mmm i want a donut so bad i can't taste it

    most of the time they are to buzy with crack heads and drug dealers

    More Random Whoring.. dug up some more.hehee

    however, i can get another one. I actually have a someone thats suppose to send me pics of two in thailand.... and i'm not trying to get them for everybody either!! Heck it took me 3+ years to get one myself. But seriously, lets get up. I want to check out your car.... we'll talk!!

    yeah man, i dug the subs.. but they where to big and heavy! 18's are not the best for porformance on an accord. If they where 17's, i probably would have kept them, atleast as back up wheels. I have some 17inch Volks coming soon though.

    what color subzero's are u gettin?
    I need to see your car in person tew!!

    Varsity meet??

    Gunmetal or Gold are both nice on Burgandy. ... how bout gunmetal with burgandy lips...mmmm

    haha.. i just like the painted lips thing i guess. but the subzero's are a classic shape, i would like to have a nice pair of Racing hart CP035's one day
