Back From HeelToe PART II
Well guys, I said last time that I was going back to Heeltoe to get more stuff installed, so I went today. I have to go back again, to get more parts installed.
So here is a little teaser of what I did today...

man that's a headache.
door sills.
air bag/steering wheel.
windows.
center console.
but the Honda grilles are by far the best looking in my opinion.
I think the Honda look is nicer overall.
is everything re-badged?
which grille did you get?

Well here are some pictures of the stuff I got installed today...
Box of JDM parts
We all know what these are
New Alutec Strut bar
This bar clears everything, no bending AC lines, no Conflicts with the EDFC
Here it is in my engine bay
Bumper off
Out with the old, in with the new
Whole new face
Outside shots
And here is Marcus's new project for me...
Its a midpoint brace from Alutec. He needs to drill some whole in my frame, because my exhaust is in the way. And he needs to put a 1 inch spacer type of thing to clear the exhaust. Its going to be done when I get the rest of my parts installed in a few weeks

I like the Euro-r kit, but only in white, I dont think it looks as nice in silver, so I am still deciding on what lips/bumper to get.
I am going to get the Euro-r pedals as well. Those will probably be ordered in the upcoming months, or whenever my next mod bug/ spending spree bites

I understand that you are trying to go JDM, but why do you have a black intake manifold cover? The EuroR / JDM Accord comes with a silver cover. Only the CRV and Thailand Accords come with the black cover.

Question about the KpH dash, if you were to swap out with a canadian cluster, would the miles racked up be converted to km, or would the new dash start @ 000000.0?

but why get the Euro-R badges then?
making it a Euro-R Accord is boring if you look at it like that.
why not get the Accord Type-S badging instead if you want
to go aggressive? Or rather just the Accord badging if you don't
like the Accord Type-S badging?
personally I see the Euro-R conversion as something of it's own.
having Euro-R badges with another lip kit kinda defeats the Euro-R
badging reason for me. But then again I'm really anal, we all know
this by now.

And I plan on running a supercharger when it comes out, so the manifold cover will be gone anyways.

bustin your balls!
I know you won't get the Euro-R kit, it's not for you or for
that car. Just having fun with ya.
if you change your body appearance, I think Mugen should
be the route for that car...

I am still unsure what kit to go with, but whichever one I go with, I plan to make sure my car flows with it.

Who knows, I might just buy all the lip kits like you MMs, and then decide which one is actually going on my car

For Marcus at HeelToe.I got to say, the bar is nice. It looks nice and mellow, but it has functionality. Hopefully my underbrace will fit after some custom fabrication by Marcus. I got confidence in him that it will next install.

Thanks, I am going to need some luck considering I rarely have anytime to myself anymore let alone my car because of school. But thanks for saying I got potential, hopefully I can live up to everyone's expectations and my own
