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!

Got my oem lip color matched while my gears lip is being replicated and repainted... championship white! Car will be going in to get the fenders reworked this weekend and then back in a couple weeks for a full NH-0 color change.
