Thought I'd start a place to share what you're up to with your Accord...

Today, washed, inspected and ordered splash guards. Should have them by Friday.

Took it to the self-serve car wash (the one with the foaming brush and power spray thing) and washed it for the second time in three weeks. Also vacuumed the interior and cleaned the windows.

Three weeks and 363 miles...still have a ways to go before its fully broken in! :nuts:

Did a nice burnout.
Nice:yes: I accidentally laid tracks this AM pulling out into traffic in a hurry. Didn't put the hammer down or anything, but I've been driving a 4cyl for the past 10 yrs. This V6 is going to take some getting used to. :notworthy

I'm not planning on much, but considering tint and lip spoiler...Not sure of the legality of tint in PA though. Seems like the law is contradictory, allowing the fuzz to pull you over and cite you if they feel like it :dunno:...
 
took it on a trip to papa johns

better ingredients, better pizza!

Tintlaws.com says it's 70. I lived there from 2005-2011 and had 2 cars with 35% front and back, and never had a problem during inspections and a few traffic tickets. The shops I knew offered 20% in the back, so I always thought that was the lowest you could legally go back there. I always thought it looked better when the tint matched, so I couldn't tell you from experience with 20%.

Hey, where'd you go for the self-serve? Sam's in Manassas?

I'll probably have my car for ten years and will never stop modding it. :naughty: yeah this is an unusually quick car for the segment.
 
I left it sitting in the parking lot all day lol

My partner's Fusion needed gas, and this on one of my 4 work-from-home days of the week. So the Accord didn't move today. I will use the Accord for the coffee run tomorrow perhaps lol
 
Absolutely nothing. It sat in the garage all day while I sit at home all day studying for board exam :((
 
I shifted in sport mode and floored my v6 to pass a few slow moving cars in the slow lane

Drove it 100 miles like I do every day M-F. But on Sunday I swapped out the MTX 10 in sub and 200 watt amp for a Memphis 12 and 400 watt amp. Much nicer.
Details? Is this a drop in or a lot of wiring/modding req'd? While I'd never buy Bose anything for my home, the Bose on my lemon was the only thing that worked and worked well...
 
Installed AVS Aeroguard on my black coupe. I forgot I had it on, and didn't notice it earlier when I got in my car to go home. Had to go outside to make sure it didn't fly off. Sure enough, still there, and hardly noticeable.


Dropping off the car to the body shop tomorrow. There was contact between the taillight and paint, which chipped it. Honda is covering it under warranty.
 
Did a gutter guard mod for the lower grille as a cheap 3 dollar insurance against 700 dollars for a new condenser.

Also did a upper grille block for more MPGs!
