you're partly right on that one. the sedan has a front under spoiler available, but only the coupe has front, sides, and rear. http://www.handaaccessories.com/accext03.html

Reminding The Masses, This May Be A 7th Gen, But It's Still A Honda Accord, Which Means It Was Designed By Honda Protocal.
That Mean's Alotta The LX - EX Parts Are Interchangeable.
Start Watchin For Freshly Wrecked Ones That Parent's Gave There Kids. Could Pick Up An OE Kit That Way Real Easy.
1st Things 1st, Mild Lowering And Rims... What Kinda Suspension Setup Is On The 7th Gen? I Haven't Dug Into The Tech Specs On Those Yet.
2nd, Some Kinda Exhaust, Make It Tasteful To Prove The New Accord Is A Mature Tuners Car Unlike The Disgraced New Civic :fawk:
3rd If Your Really Crazy, Open Up & Black Out Those Headlights... Too Much Chrome IMO..
But Overall Congrats... Be Nice To The Motor For It's Break In Period, Wear The Honda In Right So She Can Be Your Playtoy For A Long Time!

Congrats on your purchase.
I'd say just drive it around for a while before really modifying it.
On another note, why does everybody consider removing the "Accord" and trim level sign 'shaving?' Its debadging the car.
Its not shaving unless there is welding (or bondo) and sanding involved - ie. the H emblem, side door molding, door handles, keyholes, etc.

>>Dont shave the emblems on a brand new car. Sure doing it on my 8 year old car is fine, who cares if I fawk it up, but on a brand new one.......
I have just picked up my 03 Accord Coupe EX-5sp with Satin Silver on 10/26/02. With the help of hairdryer and floss, my friend and I took out the Accord emblem on the back. Just rub off the excess glue with alchohol SLOWLY!!! And clean up the rest of the stubborn glue with Scratch Remover.
The car looks clean. I got people looking at the car and asked: Hey, is that the new Accord?
Don't remove the "H" emblem. Removing the "Accord" emblem makes your car looks nicer.
