    Yeah I got them from a guy I work with who's had his accord since he bought it in 91. Around 300k, still clean as a whistle and running as good as ever. The wheels he'd had for a while, so they were far from chrome when I got them. Think chrome paint run over with sandpaper and a wire brush- so I had to paint it obviously. Thought about painting them the color of the car next, but probably not going to bother as I have another set in mind that will become my daily driver. And yes, it's definately my own.

          They are from an 89-91 accord inspire. It's the honda version of the acura legend for europe because they don't make vehicles under the acura label over there. It's the precursor to the CC2's you may have seen a few other people put on there accords that have a third light for a fog where as mine only has two lights and a larger middle reflector space.

          And my car does look like yours, look at some of the pics before the headlight swap we were twins lol...

          Thanks for the comments guys keep em coming!

                wheels were 200 w/tires from a co worker and much better than the bare steelies. Not what I want on the car though but I had to have something until I can get some motegi FF7's.

                I'm doing the suspension RIGHT the first time, KONI Yellows are ON THE WAY and going to be put on with some tien sports very shortly! I CANT WAIT!

                Will be auto crossing with this setup so look for updates in the next month or two I will post pics and vids for sure.

                    Hecks no man I have specific looks in my mind while nice those wheels aren't gonna work for me. Nobody was up so not yet.

                    Yeah it's a 5th gen type R which if most ppl wouldn't know they don't really have a lip to screw through around the curves so you have to screw brackets in the side to mount it. Having it molded avoids the screws plus the whole bumper looks much better than stock and better than kitted. REALLY like what I came up with. Just gotta get the rear bumper figure out and possibly put the flare from another set of 5th gen sideskirts to finish the body look. Unique in a non-rice- very tight way. You guys have to see my new jdm peices also very very nice pics soon

                          I have to say I'm glad you lost the big ass wing. It has definately come a long way. Awesome job on the custom front end with the headlights and all and if that whole vin# b-day thing is true then that would make the car priceless if it were me. JDM FTMFW!

                            yeah, I lost it a long time ago. Number is for real, and it's the same vin all over the car. One day I'll post a picture with an ID for everyone to see. btw b-bomb look at the souther regionals we are having a meet the 26th and 25+ are signed up so far it'd be worth driving out if you can make it

                            update: computer is out, for weight purposes, ease of use purposes. takes time to start and shut down, and all my driving is usually 17min or less quick trips. Otherwise I would do whatever to keep it... Still plan on full 5.1 surround sound, not doing a $500 head unit though, so imma get a $150-$250 dvd 5.1 unit and get a $200 pr of 9" flip down visor screens to keep it lookin like not much to theives. Rear trunk is going to get a makeover, probably going to do a full glass custom setup, keeping the alpine 5 1/2"s and tweeters and changing out the 12" or going with 2. Or two flat cone 10"s perhaps... will see.

                                Headlights will be blachoused eventually, I can't get them in the kitchen oven though so going to need a head gun. Retrofit also planned later on perhaps.. Got another hood that's not so messed up, just need to cut it to fit. I don't like the grill either, but it's better than a hole and I haven't been able to get to the junkyard to pull another grill to cut to fit. Actually looking to mold a skyline style grill into the bumper itself.

                                Trying to do things right one time around from here on out.
