    http://www.cardomain.com/member_page...page_id=370185

    this is my car 88 accord lx, i have been working on it for a while since i got it a junkyard auction for 1200. it has a new white paint job with blue pearl paint which i will put more in this summer to make it really noticeable. Custom magnaflow exhaust, erebuni rear spoiler, rockford fosgaste 9300 series cd deck with polk and eclipse speakers. my rims are mb motoring wrapped with yokohomas. i also have interior neon tubes and planning to also lower it this summer

    Nice work... you can always shimmy that Eclipse motor into the accord and get the best of both cars. No more high insurance.

    Nice car......What model eclipse is that....GS-t or GSX......I'm think the turbo models cuz I don't think the GS and RS models arent so expenisive in insurance. But nice accord man.......lower that biatch. I think you should also paint your front and back bumper black moldings.....doesn't flow with the painted sides. But awesome car man.......

    whatchu mean shut my ass up, its a proven fact that the 90-99 DSM's (eclipse/talon/laser) are the best damn cars ever... you can hit 300 hp easily with just 2 grand in mods.. A 3" turboback exhaust alone will easily add 20-30 horsepower.

    I think he thought you were talking about the Accord (3geez...ya). Not sure, but that's what I think he was implying.

    Nice job on both cars!! Gotta love the white Accords :super:

    Nice job, but here's my "criticism"... You should paint the rub strips on the bumpers white as well. Also, is there some bumper sag.misalignment on the front end??? Overall, it looks tight though!!
