I have finally gotten my LED Interior kit hooked up. I still need to wire in the doors, but that should be soon.
The lights were flashing at the time, except for the ALL red.

~~ TINT ~~
Before tint... After Tint......
~~ UPDATE: 7-3-09 ~~
I found a front lip to add to the front bumper. A Type R style usually fits a 95-99 Honda Civic. With some minor modification to it....It now fits perfectly.

BEFORE ...... AFTER ..........

The only thing I have left to do, is hook up the wiring for the LEDS. 1 12" strip in the door pocket, 1 8" strip behind the "GDAccent" sign, and a 3mm red LED in the inside door pull. Hopefully will have that done this weekend. And then I can start on the drivers side. Since I have learned what eeds to be done, that should go well and quick.
See the whole process on page 6.

Light Testing of the LEDs on the Pass. side. sorry for blurry pic. Camera having issues.
Another project I started.....Custom Door Sill plates.
IN THE BEGINNING......
~~~ BASIC LOOKS.....FOR NOW ~~~
Look'n dirty, But here is my 98 Accent, which I am going to try to do my best to transform it into something with a custom look. Recently have been seeing a new scene with the 95-99 Accents and now I am inspired to do my part.
Closeup of the crookedh emblem, so I painted it red with Metalcast anodized paint. I think it needs a touch up and will do that soon.
( 5-6-09 I am in the process of making a new bade for the car. I should have it done this weekend. )

Did some research and had an Idea, I found some gutterguard at Home Depot and made myself a custom grille insert, not bad for $1.68 vs. $50.00 - 200.00 for the same thing.
Onto the next phase, Headlights. Wanted a meaner look, so I painted eyeliners on and will make some out of FG soon instead.
Now with the new fiberglass custom made Eyelids
~~~ INTERIOR ~~~
Time to give the interior a new look. Before.
WIP. But this is what I have so far.
Painted Cluster Facia, Added SS custom gauge Bezel, Added LED
lights to gauges.
Found some killer looking pedal covers, $10.00 on Ebay.
Day Pic....... Night LED Pic......
Here is new custom shift boot. Got some red goat leather for a local supplier. Stitched it at work. Since then, I have now painted the center console and will add a pic soon.
I recently painted the center console. I have also added Red LEDs to the cubby hole and to the back to light up the area behind the seats, but have not wired them in yet.
I found my old Vampire Skull shift knob I made a long time ago. Thought I had lost it. But its time to put it back in.
The shift boot is made from special red Goat leather and hand stitched by a close friend of mine.
~~~ TAIL LIGHTS ~~~
Didn't like the stock Taillight look, and really want a pair of those clear ones, but they are not available since I guess they were a onetime project, anyways. I found some tattoo designs online and converted them to a stencil.
Thats is so far. Hope you like what you see. I'll be adding new pics soon as I can finish the other projects. Currently I am designing a rear window Wing/Spoiler. Sideskirts and Hood. I am currently also Painting center console. Customizing the doors and adding LED accenting at floors, door handles, air vents, door cubbys. I will hopefully earning some extra money to get some new wheels, so far those are stock and thats why there are no pics of the wheels.
