My Dad and I got our machine shop together in my basement with cnc routers, lathes, etc... so I am going to be doing some experimenting with custom peices for the accord, so any ideas would be great!!

Doesn't look bad. Get that rust fixed and repainted and your car will look shweet! I love the way your front looks!

Bout to pm you....I have a ? for ya.

[H23 Lude]

keep up the good work

[90CB7DRIVA]

Nice. You are my 4dr twin. I have a coupe just like yours but without the front playe and the DIY foglights. Keep it up

[FDAccord]

i like your originality... im a little mixed about your car.. but keep up the good work, at least you're not copying the trend here.

[ORIGN]

I like the fog lights on the 90-91 bumper and the lip. good luck with the H22

[ill_menace]

tru now that front is looking good. i was going to do the same. but for a 92-93 front bumper have the turning light clear and do the bottom the stock orange. it was going to be like the corvette look how the amber is always on. u know. nice

eric

[90accordman]

nice car, you must scrap massively with that front that low in some of those pics.

[JailBa8]

Looks good i like what u did with the front bumper

[xScott]

Suiteness!

[ACCORDing2R]

I always wondered if the Legend lip would fit a CB7... now I can see someone actualy tried it. Did you have to do a lot of cutting to make it fit? I love that lip, it's phat!
Very unique 'fog lights'. Props for that! It looks clever. Love the look of the front end of your car. Keep it up!

[see bee seven]

niice whip! i was gonna use euro bumper lenses as fogs before but i never had the balls to cut mah bumper lol...ur ride is clean...fix them multi colors and ur good to go..lovin the JDM FRONT!

[gloryaccordy]

Very innovative...LOL @ your 'fogs', I was thinking of doing the same on my '93 with the stocks on top and black ones on the bottom w/some pseudo fogs behind them. The lip is hot too, as is the grill and motor. Where's the turbo though??? Keep up the good work and get that shit painted ASAP...you'll be good to go...

[trboaccord]

Thanks for all the compliments.

as far as making the legend lip fit, you basicly need to trim some of the plastic off of the lip itself basicly some stuff that attahes it to the legend bumper, and besides that you need to have someone hold the lip while you bend it into shape and screw it on.

My original motor was turbocharged, but i scrapped that mess because we ghetto rigged it all for like $100, so it was more of an experiment.

Oh yea, and i'm going to be painting it probably by fall or so, basicly when i finish the bodywork and have the money

[jdm90accord]

how did u get 92-93 turning signals on the 90-91 bumber made it fit and make them work that really hot i might have to bite that
