Those cars are pretty nice. The only thing that bugs me about people that do wide body conversions is that the rims don't look right. They just aren't wide enough, do you guys know what I mean. If I had the money to do a widebody conversion, I would spend a little extra money to buy some fat 18x9 or 18x10 or 19x9 or 19x10 rims for the back and maybe some 18x8 or 19x8 rims for the front. I know that these rims sizes probably won't fit most imports without some mods, but obviously if you have the money to go widebody than you should have a little extra to accomodate bigger wheels...

I hate widebodies where the wheels are still recessed. He should get some wheel spacers to even things out.

I might be wrong, but if you look at the rear bumper, there are 3 red strips... might be tailights[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG]

The taillights are 3 LED strips on the bumper. He also has a drop-down tag under the bumper.

dang HEFE, ur just a hater!
anyways, i think both have some very interesting and nice features. i especially like the yellow one, not because of its extremity towards lookin a lil RICEY, but more in the way of its extreme quantity of body work and customization. i however dont really dig the interior of that yellow one. i think it would look better without the yellow in the interior.

Hi guys, I'm Justin and I own the Black 5th Gen Accord. Thanks for the compliments. I agree about the spoiler comment. I bought the spoiler about 2 years ago when they were popular and just haven't cahnged it. I do have a new spoiler that is being made for the car that will be a low profile spoiler that looks similar to the Mugen Prelude or the Black Widow spoiler, It's just not quite finished yet. As for the sticker comment, yes I have stickers on my car. Although not one is on the body of the car anywhere. The graphics, if that is what you are refering to are paint. House Of Kolors Kandy Cobalt Blue and HOK Kandy Violette to be exact. The stickers on the glass are for the sponsors of the car. This is a pure show car, not daily driven. There is a lot of companies products on the car that are there in turn for the advertising. The car gets used as an advertising and Marketing tool and not just A to B transportation. But don't let that make you think I don't have ALOT of my own money, time, blood, sweat and tears in the car because I do. As for the stereo, this is a show car. To compete in car shows all aspects of modification need to have attention. 18K in bodywork and paint wouldn't look right with a head unit and factory 6x9's in the back would it? Finally, for the automatic part. I bought it orginally for a 45 miniute commute to work everyday in heavy traffic. Would you want to shift gears all the time?? This is not a race car by any means so I don't need the manual tranny. This car was never built to go fast in any way shape or form. If you build your car to go fast more power to you and good luck, that's just not my preference with this car. I'll go fast when I sell this car and buy my 1996 Porsche 911 Carrera S4. Thaks again for the compliments! It's good to see civic guys appreciating Accords too!

just because it was "popular" at one point in time doesnt make it any less tacky. it was then it is now. and the fact that its paint makes it even worse. that just means it cost more then stickers and is perminant

First off Joe, your a fawking moron. I didn't join this forum to flame people or start stuff, obviously you did. Your a big man to hide behind a computer and say the stuff you say. I'd personally like to see your car. Your probably one of those stupid "JDM Wannabe's" aren't you? "I took off my hubcaps to show my black JDM steel rims." "My civic is fast yo, it runs a 16.8 @ 75 mph." "I don't have a bodykit and rims because they are rice and slow me down." Bullsh*t, you don't have them because you can't afford them on your minimum wage job at the grocery store. Get a freaking life dude. As with most everything else in life, I've found the biggest sh*t talkers are the ones who usually don't have sh*t to talk about. It's also quite obvious to see you have NO idea what you are talking about when it comes to cars. My rims aren't chrome, they don't even look chrome, my graphics aren't vinyl, they don't look vinyl. Here's an idea, grow up, get a life and Fu<k off. [IMG]i/expressions/moon.gif[/IMG]
