Well it's an accord so it should be allowed. That is an insane drop! Damn it doesnt even look like there's any space between the wheel and fender. Sweet car!!!

It tucks a LITTLE tire, but thats mostly because she's rolling on 195/15/60's. When she gets her new wheels, she's gonna get 50 series tire so it'll drop it almost another 1/2 inch. It'll also help eliminate the rubbing on the inner fender that occurs when she turns her wheel all the way to either side..

Looks nice. I like it. What kind of shocks does the car have on it? Hope not stock. Looks good though.

No rice here. She's got lots of plans for it including an H22a swap sometime next year hopefully. If/when i get rid of my 3G i'll probably end up getting a 4th gen coupe. I like my 2doors!

u know, ive always wondered wut 4th gen EX wheels would look like on a 3gee? that 4gee looks good. anyway, anybody seen 3gees with 4gee wheels? maybe i havent seen it cuz the offset difference?

Nice ride...VERY low :)

I heard from a friend that those projectors for the 4g are horrible. They don't light worth a shit. But that's just what I heard, it may not be true...you might look into it though.

And definitely a go-ahead on the tails!!! I love the white/red look :)

You're a lucky man to find a girl that wants all that done to her car, man!!

NXRacer
07-16-2003, 07:21 AM
Hah hah i guess i am lucky! I didnt realise that before....

4th gen wheels wont fit on a 3gee. After 89, the lug pattern went to 4x125 as apposed to ours which are 4x100.

Its gonna look good. Like somebody mentioned earlier in the post, no rice here. I think the M3 mirrors look good. They should look pretty good on her car. I guess we'll see.

Another addition!!
http://www.geocities.com/n20_racing/jdmacdhlsm.txt

They're actually for the vigor/inspire, but they're only about 1/8" too high and 1/2" - 1" too wide so they'll fit with minimal amount of body work........(fingers crossed).

Nice man. Although, I would start worrying about that drop a little. Soon you will probably be going through a set of tires each year. (she will i mean). I have a friend who had a 4th gen with a 2.75-3" drop, and they did everything and never got the camber right. But that was also with lo-pro tires, so maybe not so quick with stock.

And I have a friend with a nice 92 coupe EX-r. I will show you some pics of it. He got clear corners & bumper lights, and we painted the yellow part of the tails red instead of spending hundreds on new ones (total cost was $11). And we made a custom grill which looks awesome. I will show you pics as soon as I can.

Don't know what you're smokin! Her car looks pretty fucking nice. Its a work in progress and we havent had enough money to do a whole lot yet. Her main goal is to look good and she's slowly working toward that goal. She's more about show then go.

well for somebody whos mostly into show, it sure LOOKS like shit, sorry thats just my opnion, too many hondas running around slammed on stock rims, and it seems like thier all champagne too..

we've got a set of rims sitting in the garage that are waiting to get powdercoated bronze

sjbond
08-09-2003, 06:46 PM
i wanna see how the rims turn out... how well will the powercoating stay on the wheels. i know it stays on alumium or whatever pretty good, but wheels? is this done often? how did the lights turn out? post some pix you pic whore... jk

NXRacer
08-11-2003, 07:11 AM
people powder coat rims all the time and it hold perfectly.........the lights are a no go because they are the wrong size and would take too much money in custom body work to make them fit.

So? There's a point in time that they would be slammed on stock rims.

I for one did that. since i wanted to do the lowering first. BTW, my old car was Champange! Do to others what you want done to you. Don't assert your opinion when it's not done yet.
