The accord looks great Chris!

bricooper78 · 05-31-2015, 09:58 AM

Yea, I like those rims on it, really sets it off, looks fast sitting there

[ChaosweaveR] · 05-31-2015, 02:02 PM

I'm all infatuated with the Accord again.

I finished washing it an hour ago, and I wanna go drive.

ItsMeScottG · 05-31-2015, 11:56 PM

does anyone have any experiences with reupholstering headliners? my headliner started to sag a little bit so I want to get it redone. I went around town and got quotes from a few upholstery shops and they range from $300-350 with labor and materials for a black suede headliner. Im just not sure if they will be able to make it look as good as the oem headliner that the car had from factory. from what I've heard, the suede material is an upgrade, however, I want it to be of factory quality at minimum.

TruGreenGAGT · 06-01-2015, 10:06 PM

very simple, but if you want get a used headliner or just use yours.

remove from car and remove all old fabric and foam, get its nice and clean and smooth lay the fabric of choice over the headliner and make sure it covers and over hangs. spray the liner and fabric with 3M glue they make some just for headliners you can find at FLAPS. allow glue to get tacky then start putting the fabric on stretching as needed, be careful though that spray glue sticks and don't pull back up very easy, I put carpet and vinyl on my trunk setup, its the same concept as headliner just bigger

They're lighter than the '14 Accord Sport wheels I had, which were 33lbs each.

But those had larger tires on them. These Si wheels are quite desirable at the moment.

Meh, I don't see a difference in MPGs so I don't mind.

Installed the bumper yesterday that I bought off of craigslist. It looks great, a lot better than my last one that was cracked in multiple spots held together with tape and had paint flaking off. Also replaced the arrowhead since it was faded to pink on the old one.

AaronGTR · 06-05-2015, 07:27 PM

Definite improvement! Good job man.

bricooper78 · 06-05-2015, 08:08 PM

Yea man, that sure looks better!
