Sup all,

I drive a 2000 Honda Accord 4dr stocked (leather interior). I am just now starting to get into fixing up my ryde, I am doing it fully for show since my car is a automatic. I am looking to invest a lot of money into my car to get it to look as phat as possible, I get paid about $500 or so every two weeks and majority of my paychecks are going straight to my car.
I am just looking for some tips or suggestions on some tight shit I can do for my car and figured this would be the best place to ask.

PS. Right now i got about $700 saved up, I know it isnt much but not a bad start. Plus i get paid in a week and a half and i have a grip of overtime.

Welcome to HS :cool:

Since you're going for show, you'll want to save up for wheels and a drop right away. You'll want adjustable springs for show so you can slam it when you want to. Look into a Ground control/Koni yellow setup for ~$850 or so. If you want to spend a little more, you could get true coilovers, or if you want to spend less, you could get non-adjustable springs. Its up to you.

Your best friend on this site will be the search button at the top of the page :)

Good luck with your car!

oh and if you happen to be willing to part with the leather you can switch out the seats for some nice ones, they run for about $500 a peice, mounts might or might not be included.
