    ThePhoenix82 : 1993 Accord EX

    Hey guys just thought I'd like to share some photos of my CB7. I know, it's not that exciting and amazing as some other members cars like crazymikey, TypeG, keepinitclean etc. In the future, it'll look a lot nicer. The car is generally rust free. The engine bay is extremely dirty because of when I got it rustproofed and somehow it ended up this nasty. Won't be like that for long

    Bought for $3500 - September 2005 - 150XXX KM



    Engine: F22A1
    -Bosch Platinum IR Fusion spark plugs
    -OEM Honda Spark plug wires
    -New OEM Master Cylinder
    -OEM exhaust w/new OEM catalytic converter
    -EGR Valve+EGR ports all cleaned
    -Seafoamed
    Other than that it's Stock...as F*ck

    Exterior:
    -Stock...for now
    -OEM hood bra [Not installed]


    Audio/Electronics
    -Stock except for a Pioneer head unit

    Interior
    -Polishing plastic parts
    -Ugly grey floor floor mats
    -Cloth seats
    -OEM Accord floor mats (Ugly grey ones on top of it)
    Suspension/Wheels
    -Steelies with OEM wheel covers
    -Set of four brand new Michelin Destiny tires
    -MOOG upper and lower ball joints
    -Brand new SKF bearings ( Not sure whether to put them in this category or not)


    Future plans
    -Legend lip
    -Red/Clear tail-lights
    -HID kit or powerful Halogens
    -Clean up engine bay
    -Find some fog lights
    -OEM rims
    -eBay Short Ram intake with K&N filter
    -OEM corner light (mine broke because ice fell off my roof and smacked it, damaging the fender)
    -Lower the car, not too much
    -LED bulb conversion all around the car
    -Projector retrofit
    -Rear window visor
    So here are the pics:



















    Recently polished it, but some dust accumulated on it











    Nasty engine bay





    Area of the car that was hit by falling ice

        Nice weather to day, so I decided to wash the car. Also, I polished the corner lights and tail-lights with Meguiars PlastX polish. That stuff is amazing!

















        My favourite pic





        That's all for today! Thanks for checking it out

          I feel so special!

          I'm also love with the color! Use a heat gun to get those side moldings to look new as well!

          Thanks for the kind words bro! I'm sure you'll have her in shape soon! Its a pretty clean platform! Just needs some love! Check out for some prelude front seats! They would look very nice in the car, keep up the great work bro!

            You should! Your car is beautiful!

            And for the exterior, I was thinking of maybe using Mothers Back to Black or Meguiars Ultimate protectant (It says for interior/exterior) but I'm not sure yet. I do have a heat gun so I'll see what I can do. My main goal is to get some nice rims and a legend lip for now. I'll see what I'll be able to do.

                Washed and polished the car yesterday with 3M Liquid Polish and a Random Orbital Buffer, now I can see the imperfections on my car more clearly

                Here are some pics:

















                I need to fix this area on my hood it looks like it a scratch that the previous owner had attempted to fix



                And this was also here when I bought the car, it feels like it's chipped in, I'm going to remove the bumper and repaint it in the summer, along with the quarter panels and rear bumper.



                Legend lip and rims are up next! Hope you guys liked these pics
