Honda Accord 03 - Arctic Blue Pearl - iVTEC

[Stevie91]

Stuck a set of MTEC Super Bright bulbs into the number plate holders. They are a far better colour, slight slight blue tinge so really suit the car. Thought they would have been brighter but prefer them to the old yellow ones. Excuse the terrible pictures lol the originals look white but were yellow, new ones look blue but are more white. Painting the wheels this weekend too Cheers

She has half leather and trim has carbon fiberish type designs on it from factory, will get some interior pics up at some point.

I like that rear spoiler.

Mine is an executive, has all the box's ticked for the inside, but not the outside.

So after seeing the above I ordered that spoiler off the bay... while doing that saw the body kit and ordered that too.

Now just need a set of 18's.

Expensive last 5 mins.

Fair play mate the spoiler is class. Very jealous of you getting the lip kit, makes these cars IMO! Unsure of what to do eventually with wheels myself. 17s on now, will likely go to 18 but gonna avoid 19s

Should get a build topic up, good to see more accords here

I love these Accords - such a comfy wagon and not too basic inside which is what you usually get with a Jap car interior

Thats a lovely colour lad, nice find and as @Paul RS said, Im also surprised these were being made over 10 yrs ago - they have really aged well

I always wondered why they never made a Type R in them

The place in Donegal makes kits for them, see alot in ROI with this kit

Steep prices, someone always selling them primed for 200 on Gumtree. A week before I got this someone sold the kit for 100 on here

The euro r was over 200 bhp I think but never came out here

 

[Crimson]

Aye I thought they made a Euro R, there must not have been a demand for them in the UK

The Euro R looks awesome, @ferrett had a crackin one a few yrs ago

I look forward to seeing that - it will be a real eye catcher on the road with the Euro R kit

Got delivered a tailored rubber boot mat today, tidies the boot up nicely as one of the previous owners had left it in a bit of a state

 

[scoobyman]

Looking good

 

[ferrett]

[Stevie91]

Started on the wheels last night happy enough for my first time spraying wheels. Few mistakes but will know for the next wheel I'm starting in a few minutes.

New centre caps have been ordered

 

[saxo_man]

Looks well big improvement on the before pics.

 

[Stevie91]

Heres it on
Not 100% but I'm picky, but yeah big improvement

 

[saxo_man]

Never gonna be 100% but from a couple of feet away it looks like a new rim. If anyone gets down to look closely kick them a dig lol

Haha good thinking lol. Might just leave centre caps, only noticeable from close and I'd have to take all the wheels off to get at them again, back is breaking fs.

Starting second one now, this one will be better I'm sure

 

[Stevie91]

Also got these for centre caps, unsure whether to put them on

 

[saxo_man]

Good job anyway. I hated doing wheels. Each set I do I swear I'll never do it again then after a while you forget and do another set.
