Default My Accord Build

My baby:


2003 Accord EX-V6. absolutly love her.

So I recently decided to start modding her up, tints, rims, etc.

I've started first with interior lighting. Added a blue dome, curtursy lights, and under dash leds. Today I DIY made my speedo and radio blue. Piece of cake. I'm also going to do led's under the driver's and passenger's seats to make the back seats blue as well.

All that for a grand total of 75 dollars. Hells yeah baby.

I'm getting the windows tinted hopefully within the next 2 weeks. And rims, well, I have 16 inch hubcaps now, so im going to wait till I need new tires, and switch to 17's.

Pics so far:

What my car looks like when I unlock it


New dome:


The whole thing


New radio:


new dash

thankyou?

Its really not that much. The dome light is only on when the doors are open. Same with the curtsy lights. The dash and radio aren't bright enough to be crazy. And the led's are only on when I switch them on. You really dont notice that there's so much blue on it unless the doors are open and I have the leds on.

Its an auto, kinda wished it was a manny tho.

Tinted the windows, 20% all the way around, and I smoked out the tail lights. Coming along nicely, just gotta get those darn rims...stupid money...lol

I had 2 extra, single bulb led's laying around from my cup holders, so i wired them into the curtursy lights and popped them into the door handles on the drivers and passengers side, but only in the front. Looks nifty, and only comes on when the curtursy lights are on...aka...when the door is open

It's seriously tacky. I can like the speedo and dash to some extent but lights in cup holders, domes and door handles? Useless... wait, unless you have a medical condition I don't know?
