Need some tips :(

[shannonhochkins]

Hey guys,

I just got an 04 accord euro luxury, love it to bits!

However I want to spice it up a bit! (it's black, pretty much stock)

- I've been looking at the elanor rims, seen a few pics of them on accords, but not too sure, I'd like to go with black rims, around 19's but have no idea about them or what would look good!

- I have zero idea about coilovers but i think i want them for this one! Anybody know of some cheaper options but still rides really smooth?

- Lastly, I hate the dirty woodgrain that comes with it! just looks cheap and plasticy! Does anyone know where to get the inserts from?

Cheers guys :)

If you want a smooth ride, stick with the stock wheels.

You can cover over the wood grain with the fake carbon contacts stickers.

Hey, thanks for the reply,

I'm not a big fan of the carbon fibre, I'm more looking toward just a plain black like the center con-cols

there is a gallery on here with people posting their rides, that might give you an idea on wheels..
get good shocks when you lower it to retain a good ride... although with 19's its not going to be like stock

google is your friend for replacing the console shade, im sure someones done it

Simple, just spray the console bits in matt black....

As for the wheels i have had the elanor rims in 20" and they look good but 19" would be better because i got a lot of attention from the police with the 20s.

Suspension just go and get your stock springs compressed it will be cheapest option.

Goodluck

Black vinyl wrap. DIY and can remove if you change your mind

Some offcuts from printing store will be cheap too

Pretty sure most of the woodgrain stuff is stuck on. Heat gun should be able to remove most of it (depending on area).

Dont go with Black alloys,it will look like a base model car which has lost its hubcaps..

Rather update to the later style Euro mag wheels,they will suit your car perfectly...

Thanks for all the help so far guys, I've looked and looked for the inserts, I don't want to spray them because to be honest, I don't feel it would have the same feel, I wanted to order the same parts they put in the other versions, they would fit but i have no idea where to order them! lol Does anyone know of a nice grill replacement:?

[MingZai]

I've got D2 racing coilovers brand new for you :)

If you want nice looking rims.... Work or Rays all generally look good with the Euro
