I plan on getting a body kit and shaving the door handles to my 96 honda accord. I also am painting it Candy Baby Blue with the interior done in baby blue with certain pieces in black. i was wondering if yall could post some suggestions of other stuff i could do to my ride? you can visit my ride at www.groundedilluzionz.bravehost.com and its the first one under the members area of the site.

Sounds like u have the exterior plans pretty much mapped out do you have any performance mods in mind? ie. suspension or engine mods?

i want to put air cylinders on it and nothing fancy to the engine because when i get a body kit i probably wont be able to go very fast anyways. might just paint the engine and dress is up a little bit. the only thing near performance i will probably add is cold air intake.

You gotta get an exhaust i hate when i see lowered body kitted cars with stock exhausts but thats just me. You can always jsut get a muffler atleast give it a performance look

jayhova i listened to your advice and went and got me an aftermarket muffler...:D i will get a new exhaust in time when money permits it and after i get most everything else done to it. will take pictures of the exhaust soon. It sounds pretty good also. atleast better than that regular stock exhaust.

[sm=smiley20.gif] what style did you get i bet if give the car a whole new look from behind doesnt it and if you dont have money for a cat back just goto a good muffler shop and get them to install 2.5 inch mandrell bent piping it will work almost as good as an aftermarket cat back. Just make sure you get mandel bent and not that crushed piping

I always liked vents with a subtle neon behind them, red tends to give a pretty mean look.

i got just a regular tail pipe. i think it is a 3 inch tail pipe or some crap. it cost me about $120 for the pipe and about another $40 to get it put on. Sounds better and really looks a whole let better.

because that cost about $300 here at any local shop that knows anything about what they are doing. Things here are outragious. Like a 4 wheel alignment is like dag on $80 or more

Sorry guys ive been away from my computer for the last week
I see u do have your exterior mapped out i'd suggest slamming it on 19's and maybe do a little AIRBAGGIN
Also Run a new braking system so many ppl think they can lower there car slam it add huge rims without realizing they need the braking system... thats all really for now... if i think of anything else...

I got an idea for a mod. See if you can get the chrome grile. Its like a whole bunch of horizontal chrome slots. Ive seen it on everything from a F-350 to a small compact car. Srry i cant find a pic.
