I love the way my Honda drives but it looks so factory! I want to be a little different but not outrageous. I have a gold 2002 Accord EX with leather. I did not have a sunroof visor so I added that. I just brought mudguards and fender wheel trim but I don't think that is going to do it either. I saw some mirrors online that I like but I do not know if they can be painted or not or if they are any good. they are the Tsudo SLR elec mirrors (http://store.streetbeatcustoms.com/exterior-tsudo-slr-mirrors.html) which I found cheaper on ebay by the way.

If anyone can send ideas, links, pictures I would appreciate it. I have been on the computer too long without finding what I am looking for.

Welcome new Honda chick...1st thing you wanna do is sit down with a pad and think of what you want to end up with in the end..a tuner looking car or a mild modified street machine.
Then once you get that mental picture in your mind then we can get you going in the right direction..

Again Welcome to thee forums..

HEY THIS BABYBOO. WELL I WOULD GET THOSE MIRRORS NOW DO YOU HAVE ALLOYS OR FACTORY RIMS ON. IF SO LOOK ON EBAY GET A LOWERING SPRINGS BUT SOME 18'S OR 17'S IF YOU LIKE AND YOUR CAR WILL START TO LOOK REAL NICE. I MYSELF JUST GOT A 97 ACCORD BOUGHT SPRINGS AND THREW SOME RIMS ON AND IT LOOKS SWEET. ALTHOUGH I DO PLAN TO DO ALOT OF THINGS TO MY CAR FROM THE OUTSIDE TO THE INSIDES AND EVEN THE ENGINE. SO KEEP IN TOUCH I'LL HELP YOU MAKE YOUR CAR LOOK SMOOTH AND NICE.

Wheelbroker makes great sense here. Do you want performance, bling bling, or what? Have you established a budget?

Another thing you could do is just a simple lip kit they start anywhere from $300 & on u can get them painted fairly cheap and the just screw on. the help with the lowered look but ur now scraping the ground. thats what i put on my 99 accord ex

I would recomend a lip kit instead of a body kit it looks better than taking out the whole bumper and side skirts and having it painted again such a hassel for me.. but if you really ballin like crazy well go all out... lip kit are just simple yet noticable its nice saw a lot of cars down in houston with a lip kit and its nice as for the rest i would everything else stock i.e. side mirrors fenders yada yada... what i noticed is that when someone gets a new car they always do the suspension first... a good suspension is some tokico illuminas and tein s tech springs... upgrade your rear sway bars to a Acura TL-S sway thicker and cheaper than buying comptech ones... there like $300 or more... the TL-S sways are like 31.79$ with out bushings cheap upragde =) am i going out of topic sorry =/ if ur going for looks id say the lip kit and some clear headlights.. JDM or do a DIY headlights and clear them all out =) hid kit too so that you can blind the rest of the drivers =) sorry i think this is too long hope this helps..
