What do you think, being fellow accord owners i would like to know, ive had mixed opintions so far.




alot of people who dont like the wing and the tails but like the rest, and other who do like the wing, i personally like the wing and the tails look good to me but i could live without them as there not amazing.

Let me know, and be honest

 

the car is clean dude

 

The wing is hiteous the tails are ok, and the rims would be better if they had a lip.

Edit: I really like the color of your car.

 

I think it looks good, but I dont like the terminator wing. I would lower the car about 1.5-2 inches, and I would find an OEM spoiler to put on. I know alot of people rock the wingless look, but I like a nice spoiler on my deck lid. Nice colour too

 

those are just the winter rims, i have 17" ADR's for the summer, that are gloss glass.
i try to keep it as clean as i can but its hard in the winter, and the color is stock, but yes im quite fond of it.

 

color: +1^^^^
wing: not a fan
tails: look good

needa lower it a little....and you got it!

 

well it is lowered a little but its on GR-2's with Eibach springs, but im lookin into Tien SS so that will allow me to lower it to where i want it.

I had looked at the stock spoiler at first then i was this one and i liked it so thats what i got.

 

I LOVE THE HEADLIGHTS! Same one imma get from eBay.
Wing? Not huge fan of it. Looks too ricey? But I would dig it if you got some body kit.
Tail lights? It's ok. Need some time to get used to.
Maybe take out that Honda sign on the Hood and put it on the grill? (If you want to)

And as some people say lower it and try to get rid of the plastic side molding and put on some body colored.

But I adore you for the paint. So nice and glossy!!!

i enjoyed that one, made me laugh, im finding that thats the best part of the whole thing, one one part everyone agrees on. and yes i do love the color as well.

 

Gotta love the 5th gen honda, specially the 94-95 style. One piece tail light, so much cleaner then having the 96-97 with part of the tail light on the trunk lid. Car looks good, go with the Tein springs, i just put them on my car, they ride great, and lower the car a good bit, makes it sit well on the wheels, specially 17's. Also, just my opinion, may want to get some black bumper lights.

 

I'm not crazy about aftermarket lights, but hey, It's YOUR car. Go with what YOU like. As you may have noticed, people all have different tastes, so you will never get everybody to like it. I do like that shade of Red though.

I like the contrast, im going for a Black and Red look, i like the darker look

 

i like the car...the gunmetal altezza's go well with the color. i like the wing and the headlights as well. the rims look very good on that car. the only thing i would suggest is maybe a little darker tint if your state laws will allow it. my friends has 10% and that is well below our state minimum, but he has been pulled over once and the cop said nothing about it, and it passes inspection.

LOL!!! So nice! I wish my green was that nice. You get it "re-clear coat" ??? Or what you do?

 

black turn signals and rear bumper lights to finish out the black/red combo would look good IMO. Nice ride. Not a huge fan of the big wing without a body kit, but I don't know that I'd take it off unless I was going to redo a bunch of other stuff. Get a viper hood!

 

First off...thats great to see a fellow NY-er. now on to your CD5. i really like the TypeR grille cause i have the same one. did you paint the grille to match your car? i cant really tell...but if you didnt and its still black i would paint it to match your sexy red. the headlights im not a FAN of...i personally think your car would looks divine if you had the JDM blackhousing headlights...i would also change the front amber bumper lights to CLEAR and stick some amber bulbs in them. also i would mount the front licence plate to the left on the front airdam. did i mention your car has a sexy red? and i can tell your car is dropped too. im dropped on GR2 with lowering springs aswell..not really a good choice for the KYB GR2 are OEM replacements. but you did mention you are going to upgrade soon anyways...i personally think you should stick your OEM taillights back on. your car looks like the big brother to the IS300 aka altezza. im not really a fan of the 94-95 taillights. that wing is taking away from the flow that every CD gives off. i would take it off and either leave it WINGLESS. or get a Mugen or OEM wing! i wouldnt bother with a bodykit or lipkit cause the 94-95 accords have a very nice airdam all around. other than that your accord is simply wonderful.

in the end all that matters is how you feel about your accord and what makes you happy and what gives you pride in your car. so if the way it is now is what makes you happy then by all means leave it the way it is...but you did ask for our opinions...good luck on that car man please take care of it i love to see healthy accords like yours.
BTW. do you live on Long Island??? just wondering cause im from Long Island.

later bro.

 

Ok, I will be honest with you, so don't get offended.
My car (97 cd5) was the same color of yours, and it had the same rear wing (GTR style) and some altezza chrome tail lights.
The very first thing I did to the car was remove the wing, because it just simply doesn't flow with the rest of the car. Really, take a look at it and tell me, it is too big for the body style, and plus, does nothing but adding weight to the trunk lid.
The headlights, I guess it is nothing too crazy... so they kind of flow, but unlike the tail lights, I think it just sort of "grabs" too much attention to it.
I personally think you should get the wheels painted to a lighter color, or something brighter rather than trying to make the car disappear in the dark (but I am not saying that that is what you've been doing!)
The color is pretty, and the paint looks in good shape from what I see, so why not give a little accent to it?!

 

as long as you like it, it doesn't matter what anyone else thinks.

personally, i don't like the headlights, rims, tails, or wing. but then again, it's not my car and i don't have to drive it.

 

negative on the wing, lights (rear) and (front), motegi rims, and ebay grille.....

But you know its your cake, decorate it as you like

 

Love the color same as mine! I don't like the wing bro sorry looks like crap to me would look alot better with no wing thats my opinion, rims are sexy fog lights are also im going to get some for mine here soon, but other than the wing your car looks good those are a ok set of tail lights. but just thought i would put my info about your car though all i would do is get rid of the wing makes it look like its trying to take off. i would get a lip kit for it then it would look really sexy!

-what kind of accent where you thinking of? i would like to stick with the black and red theme, i do like the darker look of it.

-i do understand what everyone is saying about the wing, but at the moment it looks good to me, so ill keep it, the OEM wing was the next choice on my list so i would go for that when i get tired of the massive weight on the back, and i see where your going with the tails, they where not somthing that i was awwwing over but i wanted somthing different that was no too rice. i have had suggestions of smoking the stock tails which i think would go well, but i gotta look into it.
-the one thing that everyone is able to agree on is the paint, and to answer to those questions, no i have not done anything to it other then keep it clean, this is the way i got it 2 years ago, (paint wise, it was completely stock when i first laid eyes on it). i do have to fix the 1/4 panels in the back they are doing what all other honda's do in WNY(western new york for those who dont know) and rusting, but for me to get it done right, i need to pay a little more then i currently have, plus im working on the motor and suspention, so its been pushed back a little.
-as i said before the rims are my winters, i run 17" gloss black ADR's in the summer.
-the black bumpers with amber lights i have been thinking about but just not really gone for yet, not that high on the list since the turbo project and the motor replacement. i have a Hall Effect cam setup on the way from tony1 that i need to fix the timing issues im having with the AEM and the stock distributor, and that cost a bit, but to me the car needs to run as well as it can before i turbo, which puts other things like those lights a little lower on the list.
-as for the front grill, yes its the ebay grill and no i did not paint it, its still in primer from when i got it, but it matches the headlights and helps the flow of black in the front, so if anything i would paint it black to better match the headlights.
-with the plate in the front i have thought about moving it, JDM style just haven't gotten around to it.
-in all i thank you all for your thoughts and would like to continue to hear more if you want.

BTW any links to what the mugen wing looks like, havent seen it, or just dont know which it is if i have.

 

the wing...dood, seriously lose the wing. it serves no purpose (1) & attracts cops.

other than that it looks very good, you clearly take care of it.

(1)-no purpose, your front wheel drive car, that tops out @ 130mph MAX, that you don't race, does NOT need a wing....ever

 

acctually i have done 140MPH in it and know that it could go more just decided to stop as the road i was on sometimes has cops, but you are correct, the wing really has no purpose and yes it does attract cops.

 

I really like the wing and headlights. The tail lights arn't bad at all I kind like them but I think regular chrome Altezza's would look better. Ok I'm a little bit of a ricer. For some reason to me that style spoiler just fits these cars. I like them a lot but I do agree with a post above I'd really be digging it with a body kit. I'd love to have one on mine I just haven't had the money I wanted to spend on a spoiler. I think all you need now is some either clear or blacked out turn signal lenses. I am not a fan of the amber lenses with the blacked out headlights. For the most part I think it looks really good.

 

140+mph...really, in a 95 accord?

did you get your speedo re-calibrated with your new wheels/tires?
