finally made it back, lol. site went down and info was lost, i think that's when you posted your ride.

diggin' the color, that s4 blue is awesome.

looks really good considering all of the ghetto rigged and ebay and home depot items, lol.

if you end up finding some volks at a decent price, let a brotha know!!!!

[pillypimpinit]

yea those wheels are really different.. quite original in my mind.. keep it up tho.. now for something advan to back up your sticker.. RICER!.. lol jp

[red_gto]

Actually, I have connections to some Advan tires, but I'm worried about getting a big-aze ticket if some copper or state patrolman decides to bust me for 'em... Although I'm pretty sure, most cops don't go looking for DOT registrations on tires when they "harass" you!

[red_gto]

Gee, nobody likes my car, no? :( :cry:

you've definitely got some interesting engine 'mods' going on there :lol:

well, i definitely love that blue...

and as pilly stated, the wheels are different... which is good. i also like the black housings and the grill.... and i'm diggin' the front bumper... nothing too extreme.

[red_gto]

accordtunerx: Yeah, the car came with the bumper, and the previous owner didn't have the stock one laying around, so I had to "JDM"-ish it out a little with some flat black paint! Doesn't look too bad, but I'm looking to trade it for a 92-93 bumper and a lip.

As for the blackhousings and the grill, I'm still looking for a nice set of 92-93 JDM one-piecers and an Eastbear grill!

[Melt]

nice rims man ... cars lookin dope!

[red_gto]

Thanks! And to think I originally bought it to use as my beater car! :lol:

[kings_blend]

I really like the look of the car, but it still needs side skirts and a rear bumper....nice work

[cowdexaccord]

i like it , good work , feelin the wheels too

[akkordlayinkit]

[red_gto]

New, updated pics, see original post to see new pics! 56k beware!!!!

[Ricer_X_91]

are those axis touring cups?? i keep staring at your wheels and was thinkin they looked like them but the panda type 1 or whatever threw me off until i relized the TC part. i used to have them on my accord. anyways i like what u have done to them, very unique. i've been wanting to do something very similar with my wheels, but different colors. i just want the paint line to be perfect and havent figured out how do it, maybe with a vinyl template or something. anyways car looks dope considering how its been done.

[ProjectCB7]

porsche calipers?!? how did you do that?

[red_gto]

Just wanted to add a full-size pic! Thanks for the comments!

[uncle_el]

saw the car today (12/29) in person (you, or someone driving your car, were coming out of phipps plaza and i was headed north on peachtree). that color blue is absolutely awesome in person. i was quite amazed, as the color caught the corner of my eye, and then i realized it was red_gto!

[red_gto]

Yeah, I work in Phipps, in Lord & Taylor, I'm the Assistant Ops there, come down to the store and I can help you out with yer shopping! ;)

Yeah, the JDM look is certainly going well for you! Your car is looking good, better now that the Buddy Clubs are on and rolling! Very nice contrast between the ambers, the hood, and the white!

[xplode]

sweet ride man.. Are those real porsche brakes? those look so damn pimp.. i want em on my ride.

[Swifty1638]

why are some pics with the wing, and diffusers, and some without? What happened to them? Where did you get the diffusers? I want to get some, but I dunno how they would look..Not to mention, I still got my stock front bumper..got more pics?
