Cool. Hopefully I will be able to get some parts for it soon to make it a little different from the other OBS's I see. I figure I will start with a 2.5rs style grill, maybe take off that rubber thing on my rear bumper that is broken, and do something with my front bumper. Right now, as you can see in the pic, the right fog is missing the surrounding, while the left light needs the bulb replaced or something. Not sure if I want to fix this bumper or just go for a 2.5rs bumper. I also need to do something with the rims. I have seen plenty of rims for sale that are great deals, but they are far away. I was also thinking about an upper wing, not sure on that though.

That should set my car apart from others visually, but for performance I will probably do the accord ram air intake mod, bit larger exhaust (maybe 2 1/4 or something) I have heard port polishing helps a bit, might do that since it is basically free.

But before that I will probably seafoam it, maybe have the injectors taken out and cleaned. Also need to reset the ECU some time, for a while part of my intake would not stay connected and I think my computer is still using values it learned when it was like that.

Figured I would post an update.

My OBS is.. a bit unique.

Now has a custom grill, rally pig vinyl, debadged hatch, gold steel rims (one hubcap fell off, took off the rest and my steelies were rust covered so I sprayed them), and has been resprayed.

Also has a custom CAI like the accord one, but made out of the intake from a Ford 302. I have redone some of the grounds as well.

It might be up for sale in a couple of months, not sure yet though.

Thanks. I'm not so sure if I like the rims. I have a set of snowflake rims off a 97 legacy GT that I don't have tires for that I want to get on there.
