this is now painted in matt black to give a retro / old school look. i have a 2 sets of alloys to try on the car to see which suits it better, but first i need to lower it. any ideas !!!!. maybe chop um or heat um !!!!!!! cos the last time i checked the lowering springs were not cheap.
also it passed its mot yesterday.
good coments are welcome :lol:
 
The matt black thing is really on this season. Nice mod.

Can't wait to see it with some nice white alloys, you thought of going the sticker bomb route? And try GAZ shocks they could hook you up a custom coilover setup. Dumping it into the weeds.


You need a set of front brake pads as I have a set I don't need. They say on the box a Mk2 Accord 4 door on a B reg?

Don't want out for them just a token amount to pay my postage costs.

Pm me if you're interested.
 
Mini... not quite sure what to make of this one..
 
If you ever need to sell it let me know. I'm after a mk2 for a daily driver. Need to replace the 98 coupe next February. How's the wheel search coming on?
 
amin bro the car looks very cool indeed. Just need the right wheels and it will look very nice indeed. I can see your vision on this
 
Hi. My acccord has been waiting patiently for over a year for me to get it on the road. Well that day has come, I when to start it up, I attached a booster pack and turned it over, it was cranking over but would not start . After a few minutes I stoped and thought some thing is not right. This is not like a Honda. Then I rememberd it has got manual choke (ha ha) . I pulled the choke and hey presto it fired up straight away . I took it to the MOT station and it passed with out needing any welding . So as ov today it has 12 months MOT and 6 months road tax. As you can imagine after being parked up for so long it needs a good clean so thats why i have not taken any photos. After a good clean i will post some photos.
 
Fantastic news, no go drive it before it starts to get too cold lol!

Honda always start unless youve fiddled with it.

Get some pictures up when you have a moment :D

Awesome!
 
Hi, I have been driving my accord for a week or so and it drives really good for an old car.
Suprisingly it is very comfortable and smooth especially over humps and bumps.
I have had a few passengers in it and they love the fact that it drive so well for an old car :D.
Also I managed to give it a clean on the weekend so here are a few photos..........
