When you have a car for a while and can't afford a new one, adding things to your car are the next best thing to get that good feeling for a while.

Now I'm pretty sure many of you forum people dislike the cheap little hoodscoop I added(I've been on the forum long enough to know what to expect, but ah well), but keep in mind I can take it off at any time.

These photos are just with the scoop sitting on the hood before attached. So if it seems a bit crooked it's cause it's not quite on yet.
 
Not a fan, and not just because it is different and non-functional. I think it is too skinny for the hood. It just looks out of place. I've seen hood scoops on cars that work very well, but this just doesn't flow with the rest of your car. Take a look at so Subaru and see how much wider the scoop is to flow with the overall look of the car better.

Just my .02

not feelin' it either...

Hmmm, how'about going for some cosmetic/aesthetic mods' (some of which may actually have some performance benefits) such as:

- HFP front-lip, side-skirts, rear-skirt
- projector fog-lamps
- retro-fit projector Xenon H.I.D.'s
- trunklid lip-spoiler / wing-spoiler
- rear-glass spoiler
- aftermarket front-grille
- HFP or Honda/Acura or aftermarket wheels
- HFP or aftermarket suspension
- Honda/Acura or aftermarket anti-roll/sway bars
- aftermarket CAI system
- aftermarket nav'/gps + stereo + sub/speakers/amp
- LED lighting for license-plate, trunk, interior, etc'

You don't have to break the bank w/ the aforementioned, just go at your pace & one that goes well w/ your pocketbook. Best of all: the mods' are reversible & you can get a good amount back if you decide to re-sale them later!

FWIW, bolt-on cosmetic performance mods' like faux hoodscoops & side-vents, excessive chrome-tint, overly ornate emblems, or other nonfunctional add'ons/etc' don't really suit the Accord coupe at all whatsoever. Try to come up w/ a look that you like & then stick to a theme, as your 7th gen' Accord coupe is a stylish, sophisticated and sleek ride. Remember to keep it clean & classy - but still mod' to your tastes/preference!

Best of luck w/ your forthcoming mods' & personalization... :cool:
 
Would you like some chicken with your rice sir? only $1.25 extra.
 
You need to write "454 cubic inch" on the side of the scoop. Then duct tape some gutter pipes along the bottom of each car door to resemble an old school exhaust system. And then you can drill holes in your muffler to make it sound louder.

but wash your car :thmsup:
 
Can I get some curry with that? :lmao:

Nice. Orange GTO "Judge" stickers would finish that look.
