new daily ride

I found the blue emblems on an 88 Accord at the junkyard so I popped em off.

The auto is going to be swapped for sure, but for the past month I have been recovering from a sprained left ankle and it's actually quite painful for me to drive a manual right now, so until I am fully healed,the slushbox has to stay.

This car is a daily project. Drive it to work all week and play with it on the weekends. I'm looking to buy another cheap car as a spare so I can afford some downtime for this one at times.

haha,I have one on Cb7tuner.com

I just picked up a set of amber corner lenses and some redded out 92-93 style euro tails. Next weekend I am getting 92-93 style headlight lenses to black house like my current ones, and a 92-93 trunk lid, 92-93 rear bumper and an M3 style trunk lip spoiler. Going to repaint my door and fender, and will also have to paint the trunk and bumper.

After all that's done, exhaust,header,suspension and wheels, in that order.

Figured I'd drop in with a bit of an update.

I swapped to a 93 style sedan trunk, and then swapped that out for a 93 coupe trunk and mounted an 89 VW Jetta flushmount spoiler to it.

Picked up a 2.5" catback from ebay, short ram intake and 6000k HIDs. Also installed a 94 Accord 3 piece rear lip and 94 Accord 7 spoke rims.

I just got a set of Tanabe drop springs, and plan to lower the car this weekend.

looks a ton better with those rims. i prefer the 'jetta' spoiler i guess it is. comes a bit off the trunk.

Looking good Mike. Current trunk lid looks the best.

I agree. I like the little wing better than the Jetta one. It is looking like a nice ride.
