Look good but I think it would've looked nicer if they didnt paint the sides of the middle part

I like it A LOT. Looks OEM. I dont agree with Bao though, I think the sides look fine black.

I really like the blacked fogs, roof and grille! looks so much better painted than just plastidipped or wrapped. Headlights look pretty good in terms of brightness and output too. Don't know how I feel about that lower bumper between the fogs, but i still like what you've done overall

If you can get the chrome trim painted shiny black that would be dope.

Thanks man, appreciate it....

Yes decals are still on... just make sure you put clear coat high temperature paint over them... i think that is what helped.

Hey Game, your car is great. A lot of very unique and cool mods!

Question though...

As i said before, the car is definitely louder, but only when giving it a decent amount of gas. When cruising, or slowly accelerating... my exhaust still sounds (for the most part) the same with the nice growl i am used to. When pushing it, it then kicks up the sound a notch... It's a louder, more ricey sound. But i will say this, i do not hear any rasp with my current setup. if there is, my ears aren't picking it up.

I will try and get a sound clip or video up so everyone can hear it for themselves, and give me their opinion.

Not sure i care for how loud it sounds when pushing it. Sometimes i love it, sometimes i think its a bit ricey for my tastes. Still have to give it some time. Thinking about resonator, even though i was against it. I understand it should make it growl most if not all the time then?
Did you ever get a chance to record a clip of your exhaust? Maybe with a camera outside with small to large revs? I'm aware you have the CT-E exhaust with the RV6 combo.

Yep getting tuned by VIT, amazing what the man can do. Not done yet, but the last few calibrations he sent over, i have really noticed a big difference.

i have been away from here for a while, life takes over... work, family, etc. But i do check in, to see peoples progress, read about the progress UTAH s making with his turbo, etc.

I have slowed down on the mods for this car, as i feel almost complete (just missing supercharger..BBK...expensive mods that i cant invest in for a long while)...

I bought a 2005 RSX Type-S for my daily in July of 2013, and put some work into that. Car was MINT inside, and very clean on the outside with 104,000 miles. Put alot of the same mods in that car that was i this car.... then it was stolen out of my parents driveway about a month ago.... Wound up in Newark... raped, molested, and violated about 20 times over.... very upsetting.

That being said, i literally just leased a 2015 Honda Accord Coupe, EX-L V6 MT... so now i will be slowly focusing on modding that little by little when extra money comes in.... (i plan on buying it out after the lease ends, like my TSX).

That's damn unfortunate. Even as a Canadian, I'm aware of Newark being super sketchy and cars ending up n a ditch with every last piece of it missing. It's a real damn shame, and sorry to hear. But it was a RSX-S. Not surprising either.

You should make a progress thread for your Accord! I think the HFP kit makes it look amazing. And good luck on the rest of your tune.

Stuff happens and is what it is... Funny thing is I have parked that car in Newark and other towns which aren't the safest... And never had an issue.... I always thought the car would get stolen... Just never expected it to REALLY happen... especially where my parents live...

I started a build thread... I'll link it here... I don't have the HFP package... Wasn't an option from what I saw... But I did get the full underbody kit among other things... Once the weather gets better here gonna tint and put in some HIDs..

http://www.driveaccord.net/#/forumsi.../topics/282393

I always wake up looking forward to an email from VIT. Can't wait to be completely done so I can really tear it up on the road.

I like this option more than my unit =\ but there's no going back at this point. Looking good!

Peel that protective blue film off your door sills! It will feel so good.

Again, thank you for the detailed install and photos. Looks great. So how does the wife like it since you mentioned it was her car? Do you like it over your accord's info system (I read somewhere that is your current ride)?

This will be a mod for me later down the road. For now, oddly enough, I enjoy the all white interior and my Kenu airframe mount that serves as my info system for now.

thank you very much. The Mrs. likes it... im envious because it was always a mod i wanted to do for myself, but i get to drive the car to the gym so i get to enjoy it here and there.. Sad thing is the car gets a lot of miles put on it now because of how far my wife works... so sad

I love my accord's infotainment system, but i must say i like the pioneer a lil better... capacitive touch screen, slick visuals, album art via siriusxm and hd radio...

the accord is my new project car, with many mods already done, and many more to come when i have some spare cash.

That Pioneer system looks great - very clean installation...nice work! Bluetooth hands-free calling works well? I'm looking to install a similar system to overcome the annoying feedback on the OEM Handsfree link and also get the backup camera put in.

Hands free works better with the pioneer than the built in handsfree link system! I know it's been a while since your post but hopefully you got everything installed and is working well!
