Hi all. Been reading the forum for a while decided I should sign up and say hi. This is my pearl accord euro when I first got it. I have the modulo front end on it now and haven't decided on rims yet.


Looking forward to doing a fair bit more on it

Best I have at the moment

Want to do black rims, lowered, red badges, maybe some type r badges and tinted tail lights. I really like the look of that Russian guys euro.

This must be the Facelift Euro 2011. If you want the 09 front on the Facelift you have to change the grille too. Lights are the same size as 09.

It's a 2012 with the '12 modulo (aero) front bumper and grill. The stock grill and aero bumper don't fit together.

I didn't know there was a 2011-12 version of that bumper. As I've posted a million times on these forums, the Aero front bumper looks amazing.

There isn't. It's the same kit but you have to change the grille as well on the facelift.

.

That's what I thought. His post refers to a "'12 Modulo":

https://acurazine.com/forums/showpos...9&postcount=13

But I guess the reference to the grill not fitting implies that it is the 09-10 Aero.

It's called the modulo here, and yes white pearl. you can buy from any dealer here not sure of the part number. if you're putting it on a facelifted model you need to buy the grill too

If you can get me the part number I may consider doing this. I assume shipping has to be cheaper than repainting one. I love the Modulo front paired with the regular euro grill!
