New member from suburbs of Chicago.

Hello, my names Neil, Fresh out of highschool. I am more frequently on v6performance and JDMchicago. I drive an 03 Satin silver Accord Coupe v6 6spd. And it was not bought by my parents so i can reassure you that im not a spoiled kid. I bought it about 6 months ago. Nothing has been really done to it. It is still at Monster truck height.

here are my future plans for my girl.

Dropped, about 1.5"
Still researching coilovers or springs
35% tint all around
HFP lip kit
Hood Deflector
Vinyl wrapped roof
Painted 6spd wheels

These future mods are strictly form simply because it is a daily driver and it is no use making it a race car and spending money on performance parts. When money allows ill save the race car stuff for a future drift/autox car.

but heres a pic of her.

I really like the middle portion of the bumper painted black. Don't believe Ive seen that before.

You seem to have a better attitude than most JDMC guys. That's always a plus

Future mods sound solid, Welcome!

welcome! clean ride and nice combo.

yep, that portion painted black does make it look more modern/sporty looking.

I dig the future mods as well.. just avoid painting the wheels black like most seem to do

Not sure if someone already trolled you or you did that on purpose/accident?

oops my bad! Yeah that was a typo. Fixed.


Im very interested in heading out to all kinds of meets this summer, so stoked! and I dont really post up much on JdmC, i just go on to look at peoples builds and meets/events.

and that black painted portion is actually plasti dip so i can peel it off at my own discretion but it holds up well with driving. I actually copied it from a guy on v6performance. He has a k20 swapped in an accord and i was diggin the black painted middle section.

I mainly want to paint my wheels not only because I dont have the money to buy some g35 wheels that i want so bad but theres alot of curb rash so i figure i could fixem up and try painting them Gunmetal, much similar to the TL-s wheels.

How do you like the 6 speed manual? I hear they are pretty quick

Gunmetal will look really good on your color. For the roof are you planning to go gloss or matte?

Well my first car being a 98 honda civic lx 4 door 5 spd. Its pretty quick for an accord/daily driver, but iv driven alot faster cars (STi's, M3, TT 300zxs, etc) that have tainted my image of "fast"

I def. like the gunmetal look on a silver accord from seeing it with the tl-s wheels on it.

Im thinking gloss. Not really a big fan of matte finishes on large parts of the car unless its the whole car, and the only cars i think that can really pull off a matte finish are evos and bmws.

YAY! Another 7th gen! Welcome
