Help/Opinions with my '87 Accord LX

[brainde4d]

So I recently bought my 87 for 500 bucks. It's got a new engine with less than 40k on it, and power everything.
Here's a pic (even though I know you all know what it looks like, still wouldn't hurt to post a pic):



I need some help with prices and whatnot, and seeing what to and what not to do.

A few things I want to do it are:
Put a new exhaust
Put this streetfighter body kit on it (kinda want to make it look like http://www.cardomain.com/memberpage/397709 )
Put some rims on
Do some engine upgrades
Paint it

I don't know which color would look best, but I was thinking a nice candy green would be sweet, or a candy yellow.

On that streetfighter body kit, it's for a 90-93 Accord. What all would I need to do to get it to fit nicely?

Can anyone tell me how much it'll run me to do the body kit + paint + rims (some form of a price)?

Thanks for any help you can give me,

your not going to be able to use the bk from a 4g, it wont fit. Look at 90-93 teg front bumpers if you want one cause those are the ones that will fit with a little modding. Ive seen alot of different sideskirts from different cars on our cars and im not sure which ones will work best. 4g back bumpers work(i think). The cost depends on how good of a paint job you get, what size and kind of rims(as well as tires) you get. The bk will run you about 700-900 with alot of labor.

putting a 4g kit on a 3g has been done before and it isnt that hard.... the only cutting you need to do is the side skirts to shorten them a bit..... you could get the body kit for probally like 700-1000 bucks, rims would probally run you ....800 bucks for 18s with tires.... but it depends on the brand of rims and tires you want.... then if you have a shop do the paint .... it would probally run you 1500-2000 if you go to a good shop and they have to do bodywork.... so i would figure .... 3500-4000 ?

car looks to be in great shape, exhaust is prolly best to get your coice of muffler and get 2.25" piping welde up to the car or befor the cat, and have the muffler welded on. you could also go to www.kmodifiedracing.com or www.accordcentral.com
