Well yeh I'm new to the car scene (though very familiar with the import scene as I live in California) and was never really into it. I had no need for it as I didn't feel like spending the money and I had an automatic anyways.

Over the last two weeks though my car has been getting fucked all over the place. I fell asleep on the fwy and hit some **** on the side, now my right mirror and molding is gone, in addition to all the scratches and **** it caused. Then over the weekend my car got stolen with my radio and my nintendo ds!

I got it back, and I figured if I was going to fix it up I might as well try and go all out (as "out" as an automatic would let me). So I'm just asking for advice as to where I should begin and what not.

Thx

 

Umm... first repair the body damages, and go from there.
After u got the body how u want it to look [paint wise] lips, and molding etc. Then u want to do suspension... then RIMS... do the rims after the suspension for reals. it will annoy the hell out of u if u dont do the suspension first.

The do some simple DIY and it will improve the look.

BTW, im selling a stock radio for that car... :D

 

dont wanna sound stupid but whats DIY?

And stock radio? As in the radio that came with it? I appreciate it but it's coo dude.

Also, after all that what kinda mods should I make to the engine? Or should I just forget about it since its auto?

And how much would a swap to manual cost?

Sorry for all the questions haha.

 

DIY - Do It Yourself

 

Hah thx.

Does anyone have a right mirror they can sell me?

 

get a whale tail on it

 

Eh. Auto? Same here. If you really hate that auto, swap it to a manual, while you're at it swap a H22 in it. Then you can get the party started!

If you wanna keep it, I made a list of things imma do to my Accord. Imma change the spring and shocks. Lower it. Intake, header and strut bars. Maybe some new rims and tires. And maintenance things. Go to the Accord FAQ and the other stickies. Accord Picture thread can help you on the ideas.

 

BUY A NEW CAR THAT SHOULD SOLVE YOUR PROBLEMS

 

Well when I had fucked up the right side of my car my plan was just to save up money till like June and get a 07 Si.

Then it got stolen and all of a sudden I just wanna fix it up. I saw some of the cars in the picture thread and it just made me wanna do it even more.

Like this Accord http://i116.photobucket.com/al...7.jpg .

But then in another post some guy was saying that he had spent a lot of time+money on his accord then it got stolen.

But yeh I want to get my car as clean as that ****.
