sorry...I think she is HAWT! What other mods do you have, performance wise obviously...(fyi, my car looks nearly BONE stock!)

thanx for the comments guys..... so far, i have all the bolt-ons...looking to boost her soon...maybe next year...older pix and other mods can be found at www.cardomain.com/id/darksideaccord

Maybe j/k NO those are aftermarket. Even European Accords (same as the TSX) do not have side markers. But his do match pretty close to what Honda does use.

European Civic Coupe...

New setup is 10 times better imo. The correction of fitment is enough reason to swap. The oem bumper and Xenon lip fit so much better than that old bumper. Plus the old bumper was styled so different from the rest of the car it just seemed out of place.

New>old. Nice work.

same here.. but the fitment was just horrible.. i still have the old setup, but i'll make sure the fitment is better next time.. i think the xenon kit is more subtle, and the roads here also do not allow me to use my older setup... damn, the roads here sux...

everything is looking good except for the wheels. something more simple would look 100xs better.

I agree... that style looks better for some reason on BMW's. OR at least if you had aftermarket rotors and calipers ot show off. Buut wiht OEM brakes components it's better to hide them. At least on the 7th gen Accord Coups, Honda puts on nickle plated or metalic painted (not sure which) brake calipers that makes the whole wheel package look a little better.

I think it looks nasty. That lip flares out too much, and takes the attention away from the rest of the front. The bumper seems to almost disapear.

IMO: Ricer
