aww_shiet : 1992 Accord EX

[Davids92Accord]

just got some new inspiration and some well needed motivation from my fellow NorCal CB7tuners at our most recent meet today! thanks guys for all the good words! it really is deeply appreciated!

so are you saying that us OTHER cb7tuners (who are not local but are always posting and asking you to finish or when you are going to finish your car) were not inspiring yet motivating enough for you to finish rebuilding your CB HMMMMMMMM


im jk bro im bored at work haha but good shit on getting back into the game

lol you all motivate me with all your words of encouragement! I just didn't realize how much till people tell me in person. ...it took the local NorCal guys to shake me out of my slump of being so discouraged since the theft

but anyways, I'm just letting everyone know that I've gone premium

I've asked Deevs to move the thread to the no troll section to help me settle a few of my uncertainties / insecurities about the details of my car yadda yadda yadda... For those of you who can't see, ...well yea nothing personal

[aww_shiet]

OH NOES!!!!!!

I removed my mod list because of my car getting stolen. Not only did it needed to be revised, I didn't want potential thieves to know what I had left :'(

Now, I don't remember where I c/p'd it to

Dammit, I might have write that whole thing ALL OVER AGAIN

[deevergote]

Nope... I can restore it.

[aww_shiet]

Nope... I can restore it.

lol I'll find it. It's gotta be here somewhere. I thought I left it on my work PC, but I really think it actually may be on my home PC

So you are working on the Accord? I havent seen you m/r in months and dont know what the updated status is? Which page in the 200 plus pages is your current project? As much as I like looking at your car, 200 pages is a lot..lol

[aww_shiet]

lol yea for a while it was hard of me to keep up as well!

hmm... let's see, cliffnotes version.

That's a sad sight man. Nightmare shit. My first thought when I read it was stolen was, did they take his headlights?

[aww_shiet]

yea I thought that would be the first to go, but nope! they did take my Genuine Philips Ultinon bulbs, and HELLA ballasts. If you price those out, you'd know they aren't cheap

also, they did break a couple of the halos and scratched up my lens

other damage is that they bottomed out in my car and dented in my RS*R exhaust! OMG I was so pissed when I brought it to a shop to get inspected and saw the damage... PISSED!!

man its tough to look at those pics. Feels like yesturday when i got the call that my Cb was recovered stripped to almost nothing . Still pisses me off

[sikz6]

It was so beautiful too.
glad to see you're working on getting it back together though

[mozzandherb]

Wow, sorry to hear this man. I cant see the pics here at work, I can only imagine. Looking forward to seeing the rebuild though

yea, sucks... updates soon.

[aww_shiet]

Well the first things I've worked on so far are just getting the car functional. Car starts and runs well. As they stole my HID bulbs / ballasts, etc., my next project after getting the car running was to get the lighting operational.

You all know I've purchased Ronald's retrofit. The passenger headlight shroud was damaged during transit from Ronald to myself.

Retrofit To-Do List:
- repair passenger-side shroud
- re-paint both shrouds black
- fix wiring
- polish lens on both sides
- install Philips Ultinon 6000K D2S bulbs into headlights

Damage from Ronald_Type-R's custom retrofitted JDM headlights.





Shroud off for repair.




Wiring *Before


Wiring *After


Shroud repaired.




Shroud repaired *Close up.


Passenger Side lens polished. (looks better in person, I swear! lol)


Philips Ultinons / HELLA Ballasts

[aww_shiet]

...they also stole my JDM Genuine Honda CB3 Curved Fog Lights. I had bought replacements, but they weren't as clean as I would like. In addition, I also purchased Si-T Clear/Amber Bumper Lights, which in turn aren't as clean as I would like.

More JDM lighting


Fog Light / Bumper Light To-Do List:
- clean / polish lens (all of the above)
- install Philips Ultinon 6000K HID bulbs into fogs
