This car worth upgrading? Pics
Yea, its an automatic :[
Hm...
Here is my 2001 Honda Accord Coupe EX
Is it even worth upgrading, other then audio?
Oh, and yea my mom had a fender bender before giving it to me and used the insurance money to buy clothes.
Anyway to make it look better?

it's subjective. To some, Accords aren't worth modding at all, to others that may be all they would mod. So it's something only you can answer for yourself.
Take a look through the Guide to Basic Accords, the Accord FAQ and the Accord Picture Thread. Those should give you an idea of what you can do with the car and how the car could look as well as things to look out for.

I would just do an Appearance upgrade. Maybe some nice body kits. Not those ricey ones. Maybe some JDM black housing headlights. I wish Accords had more performance injected to it.

Re: (Bruce Banner)
did you search the FAQ for 6th gen door panel removal? if so then i'm gonna go out on a limb and assume that the assembly is SIMILAR to the 5th gen's... when i take my door panels off i ...
1st: CAREFULLY pop off the garnish that covers the backside of the mirror (black, grey, tan) w/e .
2nd: then i loosen and pull out the screw holding my master control switch down (windows, mirror etc.)
3rd: then i loosen and pull out the screw holding my inner door handle in place. there is some clips to uNclip and some playing with accesories and what not.
4th: once all ends are loose you should be able to GENTLY tug in a wiggle motion on the door and have it come up and off. there should be some popping sounds from plastic clips, but that's normal.
when re-applying the panel: just make sure they (the plastic clips) are all aligned and on the door panel before placing it back onto the inner body.
it's pretty laid out and simple if u just use your better judgement.
good luck
