Looks nice. I love to see some of the fine little details people put on there cars that most people wouldn't notice.

The ACCORD badge on the front grille is a good idea.

Oh yea the accord badge haha. Yea that turned out pretty cool looking. But its off of an 88 LX-I. To mount it i kinda messed around with sheet metal and rivits. I bent the sheet metal to a "U" shape, then on the bottom of the " U " facing away from the grill, I then used something to make it stick. But i forget what i used. it was a while back. But then to make it stick to the grill i just rivited it the grill on the inside.

Oh but i have Big plans for this car. I think ive been looking on this site for about year and a half before i actuelly signed up. Ive learned so much and have gotten so many ideas latley. Right now the Head and block are in the machine shop. I'm gettin a .040 oversize and my crank knife edged. For the head there gonna do a basic rebuild. Just replace andything TO bad. Then giving the valves a 3 angle grind job. Oh yeah and thier gonna oversize the exhaust valves. The heads gonna be pretty spendy lol. oh i almost forgot. I JUST picked my cam up from delta (i live 15 min away)They gave it a 272 grind. Yeah this all started when my car was stolen and crap. When i got it back not only was it stripped of all the good stuff (like msd & steareo) they screwd up my #2 rod bearing. So i thought hell with it....instead of just replacing the bearning why not just rebuild it. But in the long run i hope to go turbo soon. Ive heard sooo many comments on how are blocks are basically built for boost. More people need to take advantage of this.....I know i will haha I'd love to show up any ricer with an old school accord.
