    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.

    Not really my style, but props on all the work man. One thing I do like are the doors. They're hot

    yeah I'm not feeling it 100% but I got a lot of plans for her. The rims where white and while not matching the color scheme I think they looked better that way. I had to lay low for a while (cop speaking) so I went black. Probably will become a dedicated autocross set for weekends. Nothing is edited at all other than my signature, and still didn't mess with the car itself. I do have some sick plans to make the headlights even better but I'm not telling until it's done... Car will be getting shaved soon and may or may not stay blue. *may*

    Thanks for all the feedback...

    *edit*
    Got some unique inspire emblems on the way from overseas... and these aren't the 'accord_inspire' ones you have probably seen...

    you got some great ideas
    that molded lip is dope
    not feelin the wheels or bumpers should keep them the same colour as the car imo
    for some reason the headlights look photoshoped to me keep it up

    i really like that especially the molded lip. when u get your drop itll really set it off nicely and i think some blacked out stock tails would help out nicely as well. the VIN number thing is one of the most amazing coincidences ive heard of
    goodluck with your plans
