well long time no update. lots of things been added since.
CF interior pieces installed and then removed and replaced with CF fabric wrapped oem trim

made new led boards for the doors.

installed acura legen GS dual piston calipers in front about 2 years ago. they are being replaced with Acura RL 4 piston Advics calipers
rear brakes been upgraded from 10.8" rotors to 12.6" rotors with oem brake calipers










engine torque dampner installed (does make small difference and increases engine noise in good way.

couple other things.
started wetsanding orange peel on my car. so far its turning out great, like mirror now.
replaced oem tail lights with 06-07 Accord oem LED tail lights, they fit ok with some gaps but almost not noticeable but it makes car look so much better




hopefully TL-S wheel in future



tried friends wheel on my car. they look pretty good but might rub since they are 9" wide


flush?

Very clean Accord! I have to say that is my favorite body style of all the accords and with having the OEM lip kit on it just makes it that much better. I saw a grey one locally dropped and exhaust on it with the same kit and I was in love!

stock it supposed to do 14.9-15sec 1/4 mile and about 6.5 0-60.
im not gona do any power mods to it, maybe put exhaust in future. it turned 100k less then month ago so clutch replacement is probably due soon, its still on original clutch

Dam son! You got that 7.5 Rear? Nice!

just have tails from 7.5, all other is still 7. gaps are not that big and dont bother me. deff want 7.5 so i can remove spoiler since trunk has 3rd brake light in and look better then 7.0.

what bolt ons you have?
do you have ported and polished intake runners?

do you know Brett from your area with 3.3L auto sedan?

Oh, nice! Well car still looks amazing, didnt even notice the gap til I looked for it. and no I don't know brett, don't know many in the accord scene around here. As for the bolt-ons, just a K&N CAI and Borla Catback with test pipe (3rd cat), and some suspension work, Tein S. Techs and Tokico Blues.
