´09 CU1 2l Accord Executive from norway. progress pictures.

Hello guys, I´ve been around here for quite some time and this is my 4th accord, the previous ones were ´04 ´05 and ´06 models.
I used to live in Iceland but have now moved to norway.

This here is my new baby and here is a little description.

The car is a 2009 model, Euro Honda Accord Executive. CU1 2l automatic. The engine is a 2l sohc R20A2, 156hp.
I was on a hunt for a automatic, diesel station but I couldn´t pass this one up because of the price, I am not disappointed even though it´s just a 2l (my previous accords were all 2.4l)
The executive is the top model here in europe and it comes with pretty much everything, but mine did not come with navi which is an extra option. So everything was stock on it when I got it and here is a picture of it from the dealership.


Then it was time to purchase a few styling bits. A new OEM sport rear bumper, OEM sport side skirts and OEM Type-S front lip.

Installed the rear bumper first.






Then the side skirts.






Then I installed the front lip but didn´t take pictures of that progress because it only took about half an hour and was really easy and straightforward. So then it looked like this with all styling bits installed.



Then I bought a set of lowering springs, 35mm H&R Springs were chosen because here in norway I need to have springs that have TUV papers so everything is legal, so this is what it looked like after that.





The first thing I bought for the car was wheels so after everything was installed I couldn´t have it rolling around on the stock 17" anymore, so on went the new wheels.
They are Fierro Palermo. size is 19x8.5" ET45, riding on 245/35 19 Toyo T1R tires.









The process took about a week and I am pretty happy with the outcome and hope you like it too
