Default Not NEW but never did an intro

I've been on here for about for a while but never did a proper intro... I had an EG sedan but sold it for a 5th gen accord...

I bought the Accord back in 07 as a sohc f22b1 5spd with 108,xxx miles. Had nothing besides H&R race springs and a fartcan muffler.






It has been a while and a LOT of work later... all the work was/is done by me, no shops.

this past year i did an H23VTEC swap with a h22 tranny. Mugen grill. Koni yellows with skunk2 coilver sleeves. Depo housing with retros. Custom short shifter (height and throw). Ganador mirrors. Redoing interior (black) and a few other things here and there

nice car. I would've gone with GC instead of skunk2. Are you moving the interior to black or keeping the tan?

Dash was sprayed with vinyl dye and matte clear coat. CD chasis never had a black option. I restitched the armrest with vinyl, what part of the armrest pops out?
