So far..new headlight and tail lights, removed factory side molding, new fender chrome, new chrome pillars, new door guard chrome. It took almost 6 weeks even though I was told "1 week" when I dropped it off LOL. I really love the ghost paint accent that he did...it was a surprise..not something I asked for. He did a really great job and it's like a brand new car. Next stop will be the upholstery shop...not sure what to do on the interior. Right now it's the light gray. I'm thinking dark gray. Thoughts?

I also have another questions that I'll post elsewhere. I'm just thrilled with my 97 Accord and I don't ever want to let it go!

Chrome chrome and more chrome!

I know....I need new wheels...all in good time LOL. At least I now have 4 matching hub covers whereas before I had only ONE left on the car LOL.
