Hey everyone, I'm Alex from Northern New Jersey.....:wave:
Okay, so, I don't actually have an 08 Accord coupe. However, I will be heavily assisting a friend of mine in building one that doesn't look like garbage and still looks different than the other 90 million hondas on the road these days. The car is an 08 white w/ beige coupe. Were starting mods from the bottom up so the 1st one will be a set of 19" DPE R06 Variant S wheels in a phantom black finish wrapped in some General UHPs to save on rubber $$. Most likely a spring drop after that (Eibach or H&R) and a camber kit from ingalls. From there I really like the factory body kit that Honda is offering but by that time there may be some more aftermarket support for this car. I am also looking to do some stock Inspire JDM modification.
I am familiar with the Honda/Acura world as I have heavily tuned two of my own Acuras in the past. My first Acura project was a KA9 Legend also known in the US as the Acura RL (1996-1998) Then the Acura 3.2 CL.

Both of these cars are long since gone but those are my honda/acura credentials. I now drive/mod the following Mercedes Benz's
2003 CL55 AMG v8 Kompressor Black/Charcoal (My Daily)
2008 C300 4Matic Sport/Pano White/Black
2008 E350 4Matic Sport/Pan White/Black

Both 08 MB's have work. The C class is more custom subtle modification of my own.
The E class will be a complete Brabus vehicle which I am currently in the process of building.

Of all of the following I will be sure to post pictures in the near future. I hope you will be able to assist me in my vicarious accord coupe build over the next year or so. Best of luck to all of you modding your own. I would be glad to be of assistance at all if possible. Again, nice to be a part of your forum and I hope we gather a wealth of useful information that we can all share here.
Thanks,
Alex

Hey, welcome to the forums, sounds like you have some really cool plans for that coupe. Just keep in mind,
:worthless

I wanna see the acuras, too.

These are some of the 97 RL Turbo project shots. Keep in mind I built this when I was 17-18yrs old. I will post the rest of the cars shortly its a 5 picture max when posting.

more RL

Welcome! Cool project car.

Some of the only shots of the Acura CL. Yes I did the door thing for a while (this was 4 yrs ago) They were hot then trust me haha.

Here is my C Class. It has the following mods done so far....
black accented sport grill, black lower grills, clear corner markers, black tail covers, black license plate strip, removed chrome strips, black C63 Diffuser, SLK55 AMG quad tips, O.E.M lip spoiler, black badges (all) D2 Racing BBKit w/black calipers (not installed yet), 030 Perf. Pack AMG reps 19"

nice rides man! nice MB too!

Here is my CL55. It has the following done:
Nav-TV (IPod Video), 65 AMG reps 19", clear corner markers

More CL w/ buddies

The Brabus E Class is actually my girlfriends car. It is currently in the works. I have all the parts ordered, some I have and are painted and ready to install, others are on the way. It will look exactly like the 1st/2nd picture minus the wheels (you can see the wheels I have on the car in the pictures) I have another set of wheels on this car right now but may sell for the ones in the 1st 2 pix.

I see you love German automakers. Nice choice.:)
(still I'd prefer Japan cause of the money)


!!!The blue Audi is absolutely wicked.:banana::banana::banana:
But is it a real S?Or only baged?

Both of those Audi's are RS4's not S4s and defiantly not just badged haha.

Ow.I see)
NICE))

Nice cars. I would take an Audi over BMW anyday. You don't really see a lot of Audi in the streets like a BMW. If I had some extra dough, I would definetly buy a 09 A8 QUATTRO.

nice cars. balllllinnnn!
i love ur quad tips dude. keep em clean bro:thmsup:
