Black Beauty

David Gutierrez from Weston, FL never thought he’d own a car like this one. This head turning, street hugging black beauty has come a long way in the hands of David.

David has always had a passion for cars and was quite the artist growing up, drawing Supras and shading in beastly body kits. Since he was 8 years old, David just knew that customizations were his thing. After attending Accord Florida Meet 2011 (AFM 2011) and he quickly joined My8thGen.com. It’s safe to say that David was meant for this black beauty and he has all his hard work to prove it!

Switching from his beastly pencil models, David spent a total of 1 year getting this 2008 Accord LX Honda beauty to ride how he wanted it. Overcoming the common obstacle of how to pay for his mods, David worked full-time (sometimes overtime) while he was a student to make sure he could get the build he wanted. In addition, like any worried Mother, his Mom wanted to make sure he was investing his money wisely and would let him borrow her car if he was having mechanical issues. (we say, “Well done!”)

David started off following the crowd; buying the same old parts and doing the same old mods you see everywhere. Eventually, he got to a point where he knew he had to be different. Switching up his game plan, David has done a number of custom mods.

Exterior:

V6 front and rear conversion
OEM V6 fog lights with custom-made amber film
Mugen grill
Custom made retrofit by Vinh Ho (My8thgen) Morimoto Mini H1
Red tinted tail lights
Roof spoiler
Trunk lid spoiler
Front and rear Modulo lip kit
Weathertech window visors
Volk GT-V 19x9.5 +30 Front and 19x10.5 +24 Rear, custom painted
Falken 452 tires

Interior:

Fahrenheit F81 Accord
Pioneer Double Din AVH-P4300DVD
Weathertech Floor Liners
Amber ambient lights
Alpine Type-R Components and coaxial
2 12" Alpine Type-R Subwoofer with custom-made enclosure
Full LED conversion

Performance:

Megan EZ Coilovers
SPC 3-piece rear arms
Custom adapted RBC Intake Manifold
K&N Short Ram Intake
UR Front Strut Bar
UR 19mm Sway Bar
EBC Blackdash rotors
Akebono Brake pads
Fully custom dual exhaust with Magnaflow tips and mufflers

Finally arriving at his final milestone, David’s favorite sites to use while completing his mods were ThrowDownPerformance.com and Amazon.com. Of course, he had the support of his girlfriend, who attended every meet with him. In the future, he plans to build a classic muscle car with his girlfriend’s dad – most likely a 66-69 Mustang. (Talk about a beauty!) His thoughts… “A true lover of cars does not stick to only one kind; they are always open to any new thoughts.”

Shout outs: “I would like to thank the whole My8thgen.com community for their help and support. They were my first inspiration and have always been there whenever I have had a problem. Likewise, I would like to thank Luis, who helped me “invest my money wisely” so my Mom wouldn’t worry. Finally, to my friend Boback, who let me order and ship parts to his house, keep my parts, work on my car and wash my car at his house on a weekly basis.”

Less is More.

If you have ever envisioned yourself owning a Lexus, this is a car that will show you how it's done. Kevin Josephs from West Palm Beach brings us this 2011 Lexus IS250 F-Sport. When you see this car you will truly admire the fact that less is more.

Having a passion for cars since he was young, Josephs purchased his first car at 16. This is where the extensive list started.

"My first few cars were civics and then I moved on to BMW, Nissan, Acura and now Lexus. This being my 11th car, I bought the F-sport with the intention to keep it factory, maybe just a mild drop since it already came with some pretty nice oem wheels."

Like anyone else, Josephs began modding and within a year and a half, his IS250 was looking flawless.

"I love my car and wouldn't have it any other way. I like to keep my car clean and simple and don't want to over do it."

Kevin also states that his future plans would include an Invidia mid pipe and eventually upgrade to a Lexus oem bbk.

We are most certainly not complaining with how this car is looking now, yet we'll be anxiously waiting to see the future mods completed. Enjoy this beautiful and classy Lex we had the opportunity to feature!
