Default 96' Accord wagon checking in from Illinois

Hello, i'm Brian...
i have had many Civics but only two Accords, both wagons... my last one was a 95Lx, i put it on air... this one is a 96Lx im going to put it on coil overs and call it a day... Right now i'm just finishing the paint job on her... i should mention that i'm not a paint or body guy, just someone who isn't afraid to give it a shot lol

here are a couple of pics of the 95', this was in 99'..
lol as you can see there pics of pics...






i dont have any pics of the 96 after paint yet, i'm still not quite done...
this is how she was when i first bought her...






had to primer her black first to get the right color...










i guess this is a teaser pic really, this pic does it no justice at all

thank you for the kind words guys...

i'm still looking for a set of coilovers but since the TL-S decided to have tranny issues 400 miles away from home, i no longer have cash for a set now

on a happier note, i do have a roof rack coming for her in the mail
