Pics of my Accord. Feedback pls

Just got pics of my baby. Photo quality is kinda shitty. I took the pics using my cell phone. There are a lot of pics cuz I didnt think the camera was working right the first few times. An you'll notice a lack of rear shots cuz my taillight is still busted. Waiting for Florida Dept of Insurance or whatever to send me a check to fix it ( a cop backed into my parked car) Nonetheless, I finally got some pics. Lemme know what you think.

Good job of not ricing it out bro. You still need to drop her and tint the windows, but you're on the right path. Get a new mesh grill too, it'll make it not so family-car looking.

Definatly looks nice. The rims look awesome. How much did those cost, and where did you get them. When you get the taillight fixed, show some pics of the back end. Keep up the good work.

Yeah. Thats just a lil dirt. Of course after I wash my car, it rains, then they begin construction on my route home, so I run through mud.

Good lookin out tho. Letting somebody ride around with an unnoticed rust spot is like letting somebody walk around with spinach in their teeth!

Thanks fellas. Up next will be the taillight of course, then dent/ding removal OR red/clear taillights. If I can buy the red/clears with insurance money I will. Then I'm gonna get it painted something near charcoal grey. I haven't decided 100% what shade of grey I want yet. I'm not sure how close I want the color to be when compared to the rims.

BTW, they set me back close to $1050 with tires. Not too bad I dont think. When I bought em, I was so excited to finally get rid of my 15" hubbies, I didn't think much about price!

After those few little cosmetic touches are taken care of, I will begin with my i/h/e...etc. My dream for the past couple years has been to get JRSC, but its not looking like they will ever come out w one for the F23a. If I wanna sc, I would have to swap for H22a, THEN buy Vortech or JRSC. Power gains compared to cost of that surgery aren't worth it on my current/future budget

I'll keep everybody updated as I make changes.

EDIT: Light window tint to come. Don't know percentage, but nothing too dark. Prolly just enough to see a lil profile when windows up.

Get 35% man, since your car is a darker color the darker tint won't contrast as much getting you in trouble. Even 50% looks dark on a white car, so you should be good.

Hmmm. I'll see when I go to the tint shop exactly how dark I'm gonna get it. Now that you guys mention it, I'm thinking of continuing with my plan, but keeping the car blue. I've always thought the blue looks nice (my 94 Accord was midnight blue also), but I love grey. Which do you think would look nicer?

The blue has a little more personality, but the grey looks so nice with the dark package of the rims and headlights:

Somewhere between this

and this:

I use the TSX cuz body style is similar and this pic has semi gunmetal-looking rims. Actually, the tint I want would look something like that too. A little bit darker though.

Actually, now that I look at the light reflection, the silver on that first TSX is too light. Something around the second one.

Your car color looks better than either of those. The darker one looks way better though.

In the future I plan to drop it about 1.5" and get a simple body kit. I haven't really looked at kits much, but That will be after at least a lil engine work (i/h/e). I've concentrated on cosmetics too long.

I am starting to be swayed. The blue looks better and better every time I look at it. Especially in the first pic of my sig.
Damn you Ricochet with your compliments!!!
