First off, I would say get some new wheels and remove that chrome front license plate thing.

Also, the painted brakes is a little much, and you should fix the gap between your bumper and front lip.

just my $.02

even though they might be 'hard to find', they look terrible on the accord. id opt out for some new wheels imo.

Ya im gonna eventually buy a new bumper because for some reason this one isnt letting any of my front end line up right... IDK. But ya that plate is gone pretty soon i just dont want to take it off and have two big holes in my bumper...

What decals are you talking about? I wanna take the AGX stickers off because they dont go well with anything but i like the Skunk2 sticker on my window. Or are you talking about my Badges?

So the whole reason behind your turbo build is so you can have a "sick *** intercooler one there"?

Wrong! I have always been put down for driving an accord and have always wanted a turbo hatchback... So i put two and two together and am gonna prove everyone wrong and build a fast turbo 4 door accord non vtec! The whole point i am doing this is because ever since i got the car everyone has told me that it will never be fast and its ugly and so on and so forth. So i decided after i started to mod it and looked into the power capabilities that i would build a car that will walk away from all those guys... So i am combining my love for the turbo hatch with the love of my 4 door grocery getter, Now i am building a 4 door turbo grocery getter that will decimate all around my area and areas around me.

Im already walking turbo Si's and some of the newer stangs and whatnot, so i figured with my torque and a fast spooling turbo the possibilities are endless!

They are correct, but repaint the wheels a different color and it will look a lot better

I dont wanna do any more body work until after my turbo is all said and done...

Yes i have beaten turbo b16's and b18's before... Believe me or not...

Mods: Greddy Evo2, straight 2.5" piping from the header back, JRP Race header, ECU Reflash, Custom Intake, Skunk2 race springs, rebuilt tranny, and a few other small things that i cant think of...

Also running on royal purple and i have race plugs in that are diamond cut, along with some 99 octane gas.
