1BadCB : 1991 Accord EX

[1BadCB]

It's all about the suspense!

From the look of the design, I think they'll work well on the car. I'm looking forward to seeing them on there! The old wheels look good at a distance, but I'm not a fan closer up.

I didn't see if someone had asked previously... but what color is that? I've seen blue CB7s before, but that seems a bit more subtle. A little darker than the common blue choices people make.

Its a custom variation of a Mazda starry blue. It used to be brighter, seems to have faded a bit over the years.

Wow Deev. You mean to tell me you didnt check the 1st page??

"Starry Blue". Mazda color.

lol Right on

[MikeW]

Yeah, blue seems to be the first CAR color to fade.

[1BadCB]

I had read through it before, so I didn't look again! I didn't recall seeing it.
My dumb ass went skimming through every page looking for someone to ask what it was...

I actually clicked on here today because I realized it said 91, and I didn't remember it being the older model! Probably because the parts that I'm used to seeing black on the bumper (the fog cutouts) are painted blue.

Speaking of which, I think that part should be returned to black. I've always liked the fog cutouts on the 90-91 bumper.

yes If I was keeping it blue, I think I would paint that part black...But its being re-painted and I don't think it would look good with my new scheme. lol I also like the black fog cutouts.

I've got a huge plan for this car....its almost complete...but won't be finished until Mid march.

[1BadCB]

Yeah, blue seems to be the first CAR color to fade.

I wonder why that is?

[MikeW]

It has to do with the color and light spectrum.

Like soda cans, plastic bottles and those funky, slick wrappers they have, the RED on those fades first. Then blues and greens. Like if you pick up an old pepsi or coke bottle off the side of the road, the red parts are always all faded and gone.

I'm glad im going for a color that doesn't fade!

New map light

Here is my CD5 map light install I did last weekend! It turned out great, although cutting the headliner freaked me out a little. haha. Enjoy the pics!

It was actually quite a fun little project...im just lucky my boyfriend is an electrician, cuz even a simple thing like that map light would have taken me a lot longer than it did when he did it. It took like an hour. Most of that was just getting the headliner cut perfectly.

Nice!

Damn CD5's and their cool add-on features...

Nice car, coming along nicely. Your boyfriend is lucky to have a hot girl thats into cars, your probably every cb7tuner's dream girl, lol. By the way if the max seats fit you shouldve gotten the 97 I30 seats. Chill

He knows he is a lucky man. haha. but seriously, I like being a girl tuner and being able to hang with the guys when they start talking about cars. I love the look on their faces when they see that I know that an F22a4 or a b18c1 is. Haha. Its great.

[DJ metadelic]

Yes natalie, he is quite lucky. My gf knew what a B16 was at least!?.

I was once asked by a girl, why I had a lampshade in my engine bay whilst pointing to my filter. I scratched my head, then lol'd.

I bet... It probably even greater when you get to tell them up.

"F22A, isn't that a S2000 motor?"

"Uhhhh... no."
