Sooooooooo it was a day full of work today. Got up early to meet with my friend Chuck and polished two sets of wheels. Sorry for the big pictures; I'll fix them later if they become a problem.
Here's how all the wheels on my car looked like. They used to be track wheels so they've been around. The goal was to clean up the lips; The mesh will be for another day.
Used this stuff to get the ancient clear coat off. This stuff burns by the way.
Didn't want to do this, but the stickers had to go.
Here's the aftermath.
Got some Mother's Mag & Aluminum Polish along with this bad boy. Thing made life so much easier. Birds like leaving me presents all the time.
And here are two of the wheels after wet sanding and polishing. I think they look way better than before. The mesh on the left wheel looks gold because it's so old; Not worried about that now though.
Here's the bro's wheels.
The bro's ride. Cool story bro.
All done! Took us about five hours including breaks.
More Coming up!

Here are some quick pictures of stuff I haven't revealed to you guys yet. I put some ES300 fogs. I think they look okay (a bit lobsided) but I have the projector fogs too so I might switch them out. These "brick" fogs aim down, and the way they fit doesn't allow for adjustment. They are just for fan boy purposes. I do like how they are clear and match the rest of the lights though. Don't ask me how they are mounted right now.
Also got leather rear seats off a CL Coupe. For under $40 I couldn't pass them up AND they are gray! Oh yeah, don't ask me how the back portion is mounted because it's not.
Finally here is an example of how that strange lip I found fits. You can see where I have to get creative. I am debating, so opinions are welcomed.
Not sure about the curved slots. I might have to actually leave the legend lip on and reinforce it somehow. Otherwise there will be a big gap there.
Where I have to get creative.
If I mount the lip higher the side portion will rest right under the bumper molding, and the center would rest higher than the legend lip. I also think I would have to invest in some side skirts (6th Gen Accord) so the car doesn't look aggressive in the front and 'whatever' everywhere else.
Thanks for looking!

mmm nice! CL rear seats!! yeah, mine aren't mounted in the back either, just press-fit. i was thinking about making a bracket for it to latch properly, but thats some work that i really dont need to do... if no ones back there, i buckle up the seatbelts so the seat doesn't fly out at me when i brake hard, and if there ARE people in the backseat i tell them all to buckle up or they're not gonna feel very secure back there
I figure, if the seats are flyin' forward, then the people already are. rein in the people, you rein in the seat

just take off the fogs, slide the middle of the lip's flap onto your bumperin the grill area. For the ends you mentioned it was an inch too long, you'll have to cut it and reglue that tab together. Or you can use a block of wood to act as a spacer to fill in the gap between the bumper and the lip's edge.
i was curious to see how it would look properly fitted. My Chops.
