My 87 Lxi Hatchback.

[Catalyst]

Hey All! Im new to the community, so I thought I'd show you all my car. Its an 87 Honda Accord Lxi. Its in really nice condition, with the exception of a few cosmetic blemishes from when my sister wrecked it. The story behind the car is that my sister bought it for $2000, sucked at driving a stick, and got the front end ripped off 2 weeks later. She decided she no longer wanted the car, and I loved the car, so she sold it to me for $1000. The next day i went over to my local pick'n' pull and got all the parts to repair the front end for under $250, and a buddy and I put it all on that evening. The first pic of the car are after the accident, and before i bought it. I plan to have an exhaust system installed, new wheels and tires eventually, have the windows tinted, and have the car painted black.

[BITESIZE]

What kind of front and corner turn signals do you have?

[Catalyst]

Stock Ones. Do you mean what kind as in USDM, euro, or JDM? Im pretty sure they are usdm, but i could be wrong, im a noob at this stuff.

[Toneloc5145]

Great job fixing that car after what it had been through. Looks like a nice, clean DX now . (even though its not a DX)

[MessyHonda]

:welcome: i loave hatchs :) to bad the pics wont load stupid dial up
any way welcome too 3geez

[Catalyst]

Thanks for the comments!

[Civic Accord Honda]

yay the pics loaded your car looks cool just drop it and but some fatfives on it and tint it and your all set but that car is really cleen you did a grate job at fixing it :thumbup:

[MessyHonda]

stellies never looked better on a white car. wut are your plans with the car?

[Catalyst]

I plan to:
-Tint My Windows
-Buy some 17" Rims, Im looking at white Kazera 5 spokes.
-Exhaust (Probably a single chamber flowmaster)
-Buy New Front and Rear Bumper Covers and paint them Gloss Black.
-Possible a K&N Cold Air Intake

... Eventually when my budget allows me to, Id like to paint the whole thing a nice, glossy black, including the Bumper Covers, all the trim, the eyebrows, and the grille.

Thats about all the plans I have for the car right now. It runs really strong, and its been babied all its life, it used to be driven to town and back by and old man, and kept in a garage until he died. Its got an easy driven 145k on the engine, and has been serviced by the dealership regularly. Shes still got all her pep, thats for sure.

man sweet find....and nice project car...when i first got my car i did the breaks and suspension....and man does my car handle.
