[accordtunerx]

still lovin' that kit... real subtle.... the paint and wheels are nice as well...

how's the h23 with the auto tranny?

[Boost_Lee]

Very nice car...did you have the silver 5 spokes before? If you did, I like your car better now, much improved. I also want to know about the taillights.

[AccordWarrior]

I absolutely love the Big Mouth on accords...if I were to get a kit of any sort, that would be the only one I would put on it...my friend has a civic with just that and it looks so nice.

[patastinky]

[gloryaccordy]

That's a nice coupe...other than the front bumper its beautiful, I like the side skirts a lot too...

[uncle_el]

have always liked your car. i swear i've seen better pics than the ones presented here, but it's still hot.

didn't know you got an h23... how is it so far?!?!

[HighRevs22]

Hey all, thanks everyone

I don't have an H23 motor, jsut an H23 auto tranny mated with my stock f22a6. 3rd gear is a lot taller and 4th doesn't die as quickly.


The tails are custom, and am in the process of bringing them back down to the stock red and amber and making them just cherry red (not black cherry any more)

Step 1.) Remove tailights
Step 2.) Clean tailights with a degreaser, lightly sand with extremely fine grit sand paper, then clean again with the degreaser and a lint-less cloth. Let dry.
Step 3.) Tape off any part you don't want painted, such as the black trim pieces on the outter edges and the reverse lights.
Step 4.) Use Testors Transparent Candy Apple Red hobby spray paint. (can be found at hobby shops or in the Walmart hobby section- goes for about $3 per can)
Step 5.) Spray paint on tails lightly, in a back and forth motion releasing your fiinger from the nozzle after each pass- do this from about 10-12 inches away.
Step 6.) Give each coat about 10 -15 minutes to dry, thne repeat until amber color on the tailight is gone
Step 7.) (optional) apply Testors clear coat (found in the same section at the store) for added protection against car washing and UV Rays
Step 8.) Let fully dry, take off masking tape and re-install


Side note: I used this and then tinted the red with Niteshades black tailight tint (can be found at your local tuner or speed shop) and applied as much as i thought was right for my taste. It goes for about 10-12 per can, made by VHT.

Thanks dude, i was unsure of the bumper at first, but it really grew on me. It doesn't hang super low, so i can clear a lot more than i would have been able to if i were to have a different kit
