All the 6th gen sedans have misaligned trunk lids like that. At least every one i have ever seen.

Hey 18secferio not gonna paint the rear lip? I just picked up the same rear lip but it's in the bodyshop getting painted right now. Will have pics when it's installed

btw is your trunk not aligned properly?

IMO you should get a CTR front lip, it flows better with the front bumper. I have it on mine, again I'll post pics once the rear lip is on.

1) try and find my color in a can so you can do it yourself

2) find out how much it costs to paint this shit. I'll give you a hint. My mirrors would cost $150 to paint.
I would guesstimate no more than $300 to paint all those lips.

Ditto on everything he said.

Car looks clean, but the rear lip overshadows the rest of the flow.. Maybe more agressive front lip and it'll balance.

Other than that, :goodjob: and why do people take pics at the ramp of driveways.

well, techniclly, lx/dx and lower has unpainted trim, so I'm right in line

besides, if you want to get deep with it, the blue color I have is great because it can be really dark or really light, depending on the angle and whatnot. The chrome and the black both represent that in contrast, so I like it.

probably at least $500. I'll pass

eh, you have to look at it right. The front lip, side skirts, and rear lip all parallel on the top. The rear lip comes down to the bottom of the side skirt, so to me, it's all good

I'm very happy with how its turned out.

thanks, and because thats where I park it all the time. It was convienient.

I just don't really see much of a point to paint-matching lips. I mean, most of the time I see them done on daily drivers, the lips get all chipped up and shit (and my car is very much a daily driver. Usually I put on at least 100 miles a day).

So again, I really don't see much of a point. but I understand why people would like it. I just like my car how it is

thanks

Fair point. Either paint them all, or leave them black, both ways are still alright
