Cool MUGEN Inspire UC1

Here is my take on a full conversion from Accord to the unique MUGEN Inspire TypeS with Modulo custom touches.
My pride and daily joy of half a decade in the making!
Enjoy.

I'll be honest, I've never been of the fan of the 7G Sedan rear end (7.5 looks better to me), but I can appreciate the conversion - you've kept it clean.

Looks great

Thought that was a chop at first.

Only things I don't like are the wheel finish and window visors.

I don't like the 7G Accord as a whole, but that one looks well done. I like!

Very nice! It'd look so much cleaner without the visors, door molding and VTEC badge IMHO.

I like window visors, they just look weird on this car because the pillars and trim are silver/color matched.

generally they blend in with those things.

Looks great! A-Specs look fantastic with meaty tires

I would ditch the emblem on the fender

For the modding crowd, the window visors are used a lot in Japan. With the heavy rain, people like to have the window cracked....

No offense, but something doesn't look right to me. Is it me or the add-on kit looks like it doesn't flow too well from the side profile photo. I love the front photo, but something looks off from the side. Plus, the rear muffler tips need to be aligned?

^ Yeah, something looks off on the side plus the emblems and trim kill the clean look, emblems everywhere.

Thanks guys.
All the mods are DIY and trying to be different, I did a lot of custom touches. Emblems look good in person even the i-Vtec one is quite hard to spot.

looks clean but few suggestions:

please remove the side and rear emblems. it is an Accord, and everyone on the street knows what an Accord looks like.
if you must, i have some "powered by Vtec" stickers left from 2001 that i bought for my CLS but never used.
I think it will look less "aftermarket" if you paint the diffuser section on the rear bumper black (or wrap it) and get some bigger exhaust tips (or aftermarket exhaust) because your current tips look too small and not aligned straight, which makes the car look cheap (even with the expensive mugen parts).
You really like the chrome looking B pillar trim? i think glassy black will look better, matching your visor.

overall alot better than my Accord with hubcaps.

are those G37S brake calipers? they look just like the ones i had on my G37S.
