    Finally my 90 Accord LX Sedan.

    I bought it 4 years ago. When I bought it there were so many issues. I finally get it to where I am some what satisfied with it. It still not my most favorite ever. My most favorite was the 1988 Corvette back in College. I gave it to my buddy when I left Florida.
    What do you guys think?





























    Added February 7, 2013. What do you guys think? Should I stick with the red with silver "Accord" or stick with the OEM emblem black with silver "Accord"? Thanks.




    Added February 21, 2013, GTO Hood Guard.

    An absolutely gorgeous car on the outside and under the hood. But, I cannot say so much about the interior.

      I am unemployed at the moment and my nearby JYs, all of the CBs are stripped clean. The only thing I could do is to keep it clean. I have not done any thing much with the interior. I got some nice Alpines components in the back so I had to cover it up with the burgundy color towel. I would appreciate any suggestions for improvements as long as the cost is not too much.
      The only thing that really worth any thing is my pioneer touch screen unit and the Alpines components speakers. My sound setup isn't flashy but it sounds real clean. Both amps are old school, made in the USA, with low power but good clean hit and highs. My neighbor keep asking me about my sound being so clean. When I told them how cheap I got them all used with the exception of my Pioneer HU being new, they were so surprised.
      Oh, the paint is original. I think every thing else is also except the clear corners.

      Thanks.

            That's a very clean car and you're doing well to keep it that way. Why are you using a burgundy towel to cover the speakers? Would tinting the back window not be a better alternative to keep prying eyes away? Also, is the dash mat you have an original Honda one? I've always liked them but I think they became a trendy thing so I held off.

              It's kind of funny as I am debating whether to tint the car. I want to do it myself as a real good job costs around $400. One of the reasons also b/c my buddy has a nice CB too and he gets pull over all the time for the 5% tint in the rear. Our friends think b/c we are Asians and driving nice Hondas will do it. I would love to have the tint but no job, so no tint. The dash mat I think is not original Honda's one but it's as old as the car. It came with the car when I bought it 2nd hand. The problem is the car park outside without cover, so otherwise, I would make even cleaner. I like to drive with my windows a little down but it's been pretty windy, Santa Ana wind, and dust gets in the car and even in the engine bay. I would like to get some kind of a grille on the bottom part of the bumper to keep dust out as much as possible. But you guys are seeing now is its some what dirty condition. Since it might rain this weekend, I didn't clean it. I still have the stock corners, I'll put that back on and compare later. The OEM cheap plastic wheel covers and all pealed off.

                I bought those right before I became unemployed. It's some dude from Craig's list who wanted $40 and I offered $30 and he took it. I had bought some cheap 3M tape from China to put those on. It sure does not fit like the OEM but I wanted that Accord on it. The OEM "Honda" could be a civic. Lol.

                  IF you're concerned about the tint then just elect the lowest number legally allowed. Then you're in the clear. It looks like you really only need it on the back to keep people from seeing your audio stuff. You could do one window yourself, right?

                    I am going to do that before the summer hit. Doing all rear with maybe 35%, the front will be 100% and all clear. I want to use the good stuff so it won't turn purple.

                        I like that carpet, it's original. But the purpose of that is to help keep the dash from cracking and keep my bobble heads from sliding all over the place.

                            Hey guys,
                            I'll take some suggestions of improving the interior. But I am not getting rid of the dash mat, Lol. Maybe some LED lights on when opening the car door in the foot well. I want to get some nice lighting on the exterior front also.

                            Thanks.

                              Honestly, the dash mat is the worst thing. I've never seen a cracked CB dash.

                              Also, why do you need to cover the rear speakers? The stock speaker grilles completely cover the speakers. I have $200 JL Audio 6x9s in the back in stock pods and nobody can see my speakers.

                              Not a fan of the seat covers either, since they don't match anything in or on the car. They look more out of place than the blanket in the back.
