Good evening everyone!

I have been a long time lurker, I bought my 2018 Accord Touring 2.0T in April 2020 and have finally decided to make an account on here. Prior to this Accord, I had a full bolt on 2012 Accord Coupe EX-L, 6-6 making 303 WHP/262 WTQ. I miss the manual and the absolutely rowdiness of the J35, but the new Accord is so refined and far more comfortable. The fuel economy is also a HUGE plus, went from 22 HWY to 33-34, absolute game changer haha.

As of now, I have H&R OE springs, Eibach rear sway bar, Takeda CAI, RV6 catted down pipe, PRL front pipe, and tuned with KTuner. I also have a few cosmetic/aesthetic mods but nothing crazy, love the subtle look of Modern Steel Metallic. Looking to get an exhaust eventually, but I am just not impressed with anything that is out right now in terms of sound and it is hard to justify spending $1000+ on arguably zero power gains (any suggestions are greatly appreciated!!!).

Coming soon, I plan on getting a set of Konig Countergrams. I had RPF1's on my old Accord (18x9, +35 with 265/40/18 Indy 500s), I just wish they made 19 inch RPF1's (or that they were more accessible).

Looking forward to chatting with you all and getting to better-know my new (to me) Accord!

God bless you all, take care.

Hey,
One more question. What percent tint is that? I'm getting mine done Monday and can't decide. I'm thinking 20% on the sides and 15% on the rear?

 

Welcome aboard!!!

 

Welcome! I upgraded from a 7th gen '07 EX-L to my '20 Sport 2.0T precisely to keep that manual. But I am missing quite a few of your bells and whistles.

Hope you're enjoying your car!

 

Welcome to the AccordX forums officially! Beautiful Accord Touring!! Congratulations! I myself have a 2018 Sport 2.0T in the same color which I do love because it is so stealthy and fly's under the radar with cops in my area. lol which I absolutely love!

 

Welcome! I’m new myself, lol.

 

The car looks great! I want that exact spoiler on my touring. Where did you get it?

 

Also wondering which spoiler that is.

 

It’s a Duckbill spoiler.

I love that spoiler too. I did a quick search for duckbill spoilers and found a few but none exactly like yours. Can you post a link of where you purchased yours?

 

Hello everyone! Sorry for the delayed response, so this spoiler is from eBay. They come painted in either black or white, I ended up sanding mine down, priming in, and then painting 3 coats of Modern Steel Metallic and 4 clear coats. If you have a black or white Accord, you are set! They already have your color, but for anyone else, I would recommend finding some paint-matched paint, or taking it to a shop. The paint I got came with a primer, base coat, and clear coat in aerosol cans with a 95% paint match for about $50 on eBay, happy to link that here as well. Honestly, I would recommend taking it to a shop though, as the quotes I received were anywhere from $100-150 which isn't too bad in my opinion!

The spoiler itself goes for $70-85 depending on the supplier and often times includes free shipping. The one linked below is $77.50 with free shipping!

The link for the spoiler is here: For 2018-2020 Honda Accord Painted Glossy Black Trunk Spoiler Wing 18 19 20 | eBay

This link is to a black one, but if you have a white Accord, searching something along the lines of "2018 Accord spoiler" on eBay will find it for you!

Overall, easy install. Once it was painted, I let it cure for a few hours and then lined the back in some generic 3M adhesive that I got from AutoZone for about $5. Zero issues with it staying on or anything.

Let me know if you guys have any other questions! Take care everyone, and Merry Christmas

 

A quick side note too, you will have to remove the "ACCORD" badge on the top left of the trunk for the install, but you should de-badge your car anyways because it looks way better/cleaner

 

Hey Mason! So I currently have an 8th gen V6 coupe and saw this post while trying to research a suspension and wheel set up for my 8th gen.

I had two questions if you don’t mind… First, I plan on lowering mine on BC racing coils but I’m worried it’ll drop the car too low, your ride height looks exactly like what I am hoping to achieve, so I’m curious what was your suspension set up?

Secondly what was the offset/spacers used on your RPF1, it’s hard to find information online about what offset will fit these coupes.

thank you!

 

Hey man, hope you’re well. I will tell you from experience, BC coils are great for going reallll low on the 8th gen, but they ride pretty rough honestly. Best coils I found for the 8th gen in terms of ride quality and ride height are the Tein Flex Z. They ride just slightly stiffer than stock, and they can get you pretty much as low as you should ever go haha.
The RPF1s were run without spacers, pretty ideal fitment without the need for them. They were 18x9 +35 with 265/40/18 tires all around. I got the fenders rolled as a precautionary measure but there was really no need - wasn’t low enough to warrant it and the offset was enough to help avoid scrubbing.
Definitely not enough info out there for the 8th gen coupes, that was always such a bummer. It was so hard to find much of anything outside of basic bolt on info haha. I spent about a year determining what I should do before landing on the RPF1s, well worth the wait and research though!
Feel free to shoot me any questions you may have! I was FBO, tuned, etc… did about everything you can to the car.
