nice work, it's good you're wrapping and sticking spare (if I'm correct?) interior parts you find.. plug and play ig.

yeah I picked all those peices up from the JY but I am also wrapping my original parts as well

Got tires today for my rims no bueno

Why is that no bueno?

no fender gap = constant rubbing... sounds horrible while driving

You need more negative camber. Just pull on the wheels.

^^this... thats how i do my alignments at home.

maybe it's time for coils (unless money is tight).. judging by how long you've had your car modded

Just curious, why would coils help me in this situation? I dont wanna raise the car up any more lol

The other day I finally got my new tires put on. They are Nitto NT555 Extreme tires @ 225/40/18.. They fit mad jdm tyte in the fenders.. Rears have no gap.. literally.. you couldnt put a peice of paper in there lol.. The fronts are pretty close too

Today I changed my oil, and sprayed my front/rear lips, side skirts, front lower grill, Trim around the front intersection lights, and the muffler.

Looks sooo much better lol

Before, masked off.. Notice how white the lips are lol :giggity:










Afters

Did you notice any paint peeling off when you removed the painters tape? Not trying to call you out, but Ive heard that the green painters tape is the absolute worst to use to tape up bumpers and such. Alex (CD7 Accord SiR) on HS ruined an entire bumper by using it.

lol @ white lips joke

Black lips look good. Car is proper as always, SiR

Nope, all the tape came off flawlessly with out paint lol

Uh I think the only way the paint would come off is if you had a shitty aftermarket paint job

looking good SiR! glad the stock 96/97 ex alloys are off

For a second I thought you smoked the intersection lights lol

I used tan masking tape on my bumper and quarter panel when I was touching up my quarter panel, no problems.

Eh, I was thinking more along the lines of a stiffer ride with less bounce.

color of these dash pieces don't look bad

yeah I really dont care for the silver color, but thanks for sharing

Chris, make it happen!!






(pic is mainly denoted as me wanting you to get the SiR rear spoiler, but the JDM rear window with the wiper is an added plus )

I have been contemplating getting gold/bronze rims for my car.. A lot of people have told me no, but looking at Honda_CD5's car from HS, I think they would really look good with the polished lip like what I was looking at or thinking about..

I love that car. Such aggressively modded, yet clean and refined.

Wheels are nice. I've always liked a nice polished set on your color. Not chrome. Polished.

there is a set of bronze mesh on hs right now for $400... 16s tho
