There are alot of great search features on this site.
The first thing is make sure that the ride is absolutely a sound running car.
After that is accomplished then start looking for the modifications.
Its a great reliable ride. Keep it that way first.
Then start with small modifications. :rockon:

I would also suggest driving the car for at least a month or two before puting any money into it. When I bought my car it needed alot of suspension work and if I couldn't have done it myself if probably would have been upward of $500 to fix it all. Also make sure you really like the car before you dedicate yourself to it. The $$$ it would cost to do the mods your mentioning will probably equal more than the car is worth so before dumping money into it see if you really like it first.
But a great way to see how your car could look with those things done to it your asking about is to search. Good luck with the car!

ive actually been driving the car for a while now but the instructor just recently told me about the site i wanted to actually talk to someone be4 i did ne thing. Sorry i didnt mention that be4. Originally she just had it sitting in the yard and it was on the other side of the house near our neighbors yard. He works for the department of transportation and i thought it was his as a project. Then one day my mom was just like that car is ours and i was like kewl beans. It had some work to be done like the engine heads needed to be replaced also the timing belt and we needed new light fixtures. Thats all done now but the hood looks crooked in comparison to one of the fixtures thats the first thing on my list of things that needs done. But i wanna start savin up some money so that i can get the stuff that i want which is why i asked in the first place

seeing how he's in the appearance section, i don't think he needs all that mike. well pheonix, if youre lookin for body kits, there are some sites out there. i think erebuni still has some for our cars, just google it. other than that, alot of the apearance mods you want to do will be custom seeing how we have old accords. but yah, like everyone said, just search around on this site, you'll find lots of helpful information. welcome to the site.

I've already contacted Erebuni & Have been told some kits are still available in their CLEARANCE SECTION of their site.

I thought I had already called them, but I called again anyway and they called me back and said it shouldn't be listed since it's discontinued. Deathrat, I only want the front bumper and erebuni refuses to part the kits out.

i.c goes to the school that my mom works at ill tell him what it looks like this afternoon and then if its not raining too hard tommorow ill get him to take some shots. The front bumper and rear bumper need painting and its really not all that clean but ure welcome to take them but its not really that impressive
