1996 Accord LX
I'm kinda new to the wholecar modifications process and all but am looking to get better at it in the future. A couple months agoI bought a 1996 accord lx with 150,000 miles on it after I turned sixteen. Its exterior is in really good condition besides the normal wear and tear that comes with an older car. Recently I purchased an air intake, clear corners and front bumper lights, new TYC red tail lights and infinity kappa 6x9s in the back and kappa 6.1 perfects for the mid range in the front. I am having trouble however with deciding what would be the smartest investments for future mods for my car. ANy ideas and suggestionswould beappreciated.And I will eventually get around to posting some pics.

Sweet! I have the same car, cept a year newer. And welcome to HAF by the way! Check out my photo album and leave comments if you want and maybe it'll give you some ideas as to what you would like to do.
What are you looking for, power, looks, sleeper, ricey? It also depends on your budget. I am curious to see your tail lights! If they are the jaguar ones those are really nice! In fact, I just modified my Altezza lights in the 'Appearance' section.
Glad to have you!

RE: 1996 Accord LX
please do tell me how you make the lights brighter...im curious to know. I'm looking for a good combination of power and looks without the riceyness of alot of other obnoxious imports. ALso, i work at a grocery market called publix for those of you that don't live in the south and quite honestly don't make alot of money so i sort of havwe a limited budget.
