    84 accord hatch newest project

    finally got a new front bumper for my accord.
    heres what it looked like before:


    then i removed it:

    heres the new bumper:


    theres the tow hook that came with the bumper. i hated it so i ran and got a new better looking set:

    both have matching serial numbers and rated to tow 17,xxx something pounds. so i think it'll work lol
    tow hook completely in place:

    all done!



    and sorry for the crappy pics. my digital camera died this morning so i couldnt take decent pics

    Woah that's the first time I've seen that bumper painted and installed. Did it come painted or did you paint it to match? Nice work!

    Oh awesome. I have to give you a ton of credit for putting the money into making it look good and doing it up right! That's cool that you had the car painted. I was pretty amazed at how good it looked in it's original condition...

    I believe that there's a rear bumper and sideskirts out there that compliment that front bumper as well.

    yea. i bought it after it was sitting for 6 years. the roof was oxidized.
    so i just had the car painted the oem color. but a little more metallic. and ive been trying so hard to find the sideskirts. i dont really know if i want a back bumper. i think it looks good as is

    thanks man. yesterday one guy came up to me while i was washin it and said "wow, ive never seen one before, especially all fixed up"

    Looks good. You should sell me your old bumper, it looks to be in pretty good shape. I want to see if it'll fit the front of my 82.

    well ive only taken it to the track once since ive had it. but i figured since i have to take the bumper off to put it on. might as well do it at the time. about to do an engine swap so ill prob be needing it after that. plus i think it looks good.

    Re: 84 accord hatch newest project

    well... bad news is, the black background doesnt make the light reflect enough, so anyone have any advice if i should replace low beams with old lights and keep the black projectors for the high beams??
