    Thanks for the replies peeps. Yeah I know, I need to get rid of the pin stripe. I just haven't gotten around to it, and I don't know what to use to get the adhesive off. Any suggestions???

    About the center caps on the wheels. I just didn't like them on. I sort of like the way it looks with them off. That's just me though.

    Suggestions on removing pin stripe would be great.

    thanks y'all

    peace out...

    Oh yeah, ACCORD EX check the site again. It should work. If not, Sorry ...

    If you want to get the pinstripe off, go to an auto parts store and buy a can of label and sticker remover. That shit works like a charm. Directions should be on the can but if you need more help, let me know.
    No projects. Life consumes my time and money.

    Hey it looks great!
    The only thing that stands out
    is the orange on the taillights
    and front corner lights. Make it
    clear man. That would go with the color
    scheme you have going on:
    red, black, with a little clear I assume.
    Other than that I like it. Nice job

    Yes, you are absolutely right. Good observation!!
    I have been trying to figure out how to make the front corners clear for the longest time. Once I figure it out, they will be changed. About the rears. If you didn't notice, my car is an 89 lx-i. The outer segments of the tail lights are off and older year accord. That is why i was able to make the top part clear and keep the bottom red. The 89 lx-i tail was one solid piece with no split between the yellow and red part. The inner section however, was not interchangable with the older accords. That is why I haven't gotten rid of the orange yet. Like the front corners, I will do the change when I find a good way to do it. I hope all of that made sence..

    Believe it or not, I am slowly putting a how-to together on those speaker pods. It is taking longer than I expected. I just want to make sure I cover everything and trying to provide as many pics as I can. I don't know how long it will take, but yes, there will be a how-to. I promise.

    It is just a universal fit stainless steel direct flow performance muffler.


    Peace out y'all.

    very good job bro....coming along nicely. Ya know, the pin stripe might actually look good if it was a different color. My car has pin stripes but they are straight along the side. Good custom work.

    Yeah, I don't know what other color would look good. I was trying to go with the red color scheme since I have the red emblems. It will probably be best just to remove the pinstripe whenever I get a chance....

    i'm out....

    89accordlxi---> e-mail me, and I'll send you a How-To on the clear sidemarkers

    I'll post a How-To just as soon as I put one together with pics showing each step. It's cheap, but it takes forever to do the way I make 'em.

    You can actually just use plain naptha, Coleman fuel, or mineral spirits to remove the adhesive. None of these will hurt your paint. Heat the stripes with a hair dryer before you try to peel them off. Believe me, it makes it a lot easier.

    Mine had pin stripes from the dealer when it was new. Of course, I removed them when the car was only 4 1/2 years old, not 13.

    sorry dude, I drooled on the se-i seats. I'll fix it later. Anyways I love the car, and yes the pinstripe does stand out buy hey, mine has one too. but it is very thin and black on that metallic blue. oh yeah my bonnet, and LF fender all don't match the colour of the car either. oh well. I want your seats! and tell us how you did the fog lights!
