Figured I'd show both of the accords I got.
Me and my mother decided we'd name them Thing 1 and Thing 2 both cars are almost perfect mirrors of each other.

Thing 2 is a 1989 Accord Lx-i automatic with less then 150,000 on the gauge and it's all original. Only real issue it has right now is a valve cover gasket.

My cars were Rhonda, Rhonda 2.0 (two liter engine), 2.0LEX-i (Lexi), and Sebulba. Thing 1/2 are dope for having two, my green sedan doesn't even have a name...

take off the racing stripes and both would look good.

I got plans to. I'm guessing the sunroof leaks so they put waterproof tape round it. Well it being a red car they put the white stripes so the one white square wouldn't stand out as much.

Blame my mother. She picked the names XD

Yeah the blue accord was $1300 and was down a couple months later needing a transmission. The red accord I just got for $500 and so far it just needs a valve cover gasket and a new radiator cap.

I give them credit for trying to keep it from looking completely hillbilly. Cars are looking good!

Found out why it's taped up. The seals are fine. The guy who had it before the person I'm buying it from had two springs launch out at him.
So it has nothing to push the window upto the seals. I gotta find those springs >>

I recently bought up the front bumper from a 87-88 Accord and I've been toying with the idea of putting it on the accord.
Well I did today and want to know what you guys think.
And everything did bolt up with no issues. Only thing I gotta change is I gotta goto the junkyard and pull the blinkers and do a small conversion.
The 89 blinkers don't fit in the spots needed.

I prefer the newer bumper, but whatever works for you.
