AndAnotherOne's 02 Build
Hey guys, I havent made a build thread yet, and I wanted to document my build since I have failed to do so with just about every one of my cars in the past and have kicked myself for it multiple times.
I won't be moving at lightning pace on this build, so bare with me but I assure you won't be disappointed with the end result! Well onto the pics! Here the car was fairly stock, Buddy Club N+ suspension... AP2V1 wheels... Apex'i exhaust... Front license plate holes shaved, front and rear tow caps shaved, antenna shaved, trunk keyhole shaved and accord sedan rear keyhole-less handles. https://i1120.photobucket.com/albums...CB341EB06F.jpg https://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a...psb162525f.png Motor completely stock... https://i1120.photobucket.com/albums...15806AEAAD.jpg Interior completely stock... https://i1120.photobucket.com/albums...psfd028b8a.jpg Added an AP2 center console and silver shift knob... https://i1120.photobucket.com/albums...psda8f0d33.jpg Added a set of JDM DC2 sidemarkers, I liked these because they are more flush with the fenders than the clear S2000 side markers: https://i1120.photobucket.com/albums...ps1b4ee3a8.jpg ... Then I went on a little spending spree and bought a set of 18" Work Meisters, an authentic gears front lip and JDM AP1 headlights https://i1120.photobucket.com/albums...psb74ec3e5.jpg https://i1120.photobucket.com/albums...psab05447f.jpg https://i1120.photobucket.com/albums...ps729195e2.jpg https://i1120.photobucket.com/albums...ps9b7a643b.jpg Removed the coil pack cover today, media blasted it and shaved the DOHC VTEC and Honda emblem and sent for a fresh coat of satin black powdercoat... Future plans are a custom mural on this, and custom hydrographics on the valve cover. I will keep you guys updated on that as it comes along. https://i1120.photobucket.com/albums...ps1b6c37ab.jpg Also started fabricating custom LED taillights, and eventually will do the third brake light as well... https://i1120.photobucket.com/albums...psa5380881.jpg https://i1120.photobucket.com/albums...ps0fe1f25d.jpg Future plans will be repainting the front lip, refinishing/relipping the hardware and faces of the meisters, full custom turbo kit utilizing a precision 62/62 and AEM EMS V2, nardi wheel and quick release, some type of roll cage, side diffusers, possibly a rear diffuser, ASM over fenders and a bunch of other stuff, so stay tuned! |
A quick update, I made a little bit of headway and got the boards etched for the taillights:
https://i1120.photobucket.com/albums...ps5a31f967.jpg Also got the valve cover and coil pack cover back from powdercoat, VC is gloss black but thats just a base for the one off hydrographics I'll be getting dipped onto it, and the CPC is satin black but will have a custom hand-painted mural and both will be clear-coated, wet-sanded and buffed. https://i1120.photobucket.com/albums...psd02956d6.jpg Also been giving some serious thought about doing a full color change to GPW... I love Sebring, but GPW is hands down my favorite color. |
Sneak peak... (Thanks Canopy!)

I love the direction you're headed. Gears lip is so sweet and rare. Interested in see what u do with the taillights. How much did u pick up the AP2 center console for? If u dont mind. U can PM me.
Keep up the good work :thumbup: |
I actually picked it up off a friend for $20, the arm pad needed rewrapped so I used my ap1 material and rewrapped it with that. Turned out really well. And ya I love the gears lip, I get offers to buy it every day!
But ill never sell it, unless someone offers me and absolutely ludicrous price for it haha I need a set of downforce fenders so if anyone has a set ill take them! |

little update... got my wheels on, some slight fitment issues that i'm going to iron out tomorrow but other than that they fit good!
