    Save your money man. This isn't the economy you wanna go living paycheck to paycheck in while spending whatever profits you have on making a $500 car look like a $600 car.

    Honestly, if you would have saved up about $500 to $1000 more you could've gotten lucky, with a lot of searching, and found yourself something worth modifying. Hell, with $1,500 you can even find some VIP cars to play with or even something that can be VIP styled. Sometimes you can get lucky and find 1st Gen Lexus LS's and GS's for around $1,500 (although they still usually run more, even with high mileage). Even a 94-96 Infiniti Q45 is a rarity to see and those can be copped at around $1,500 or less (again, depending on mileage and aesthetics).

    I remember when my car was in the bodyshop, they gave me a 91 Honda Accord to drive temporarily. That was one of the most embarrassing times of my life...and you want to modify yours? Your 87 Honda Accord should be nothing more than a daily driver. It's perfect for that, at least.

    Now, if you still want old school, find yourself an AE86...

    One day? Why not now?

    And get yourself an OG-status Lexus LS, GS, or Infiniti Q45.

    save up another $500 - $1,000 and sell your current car for $500 or a little more. get something better to play with.

    for $500 I have to admit its a pretty clean looking car. If your happy with it fuck what everyone else thinks.

    You gotta have some tough skin to withstand some hazing since you are a noob to the site still
    (make 20 post and get some rep points and join us in the old skool rides section. We'll lobe you there )

    If i were you after brakes and tires I would invest in some decent tint. I have 2 cars from the 80's and think that cars from back then look soooo much better with darker glass. just my opinion. Good luck with what you want to do with it.
