Look at that, you modified the ebay lip to fit your 11+ tsx. I don't think a lot of people attempt that. Good look my friend.

Black looks good. But if you're totally set on those 3 colors, I vote red.

Looks good man! I don't blame you, I get sick of black wheels too! Especially since so many people sport black rims!

You should put something inside of the front lip openings.... looks kind of weird looking through it and just seeing the bumper, lol.

Why did you cut the opening and not put anything in it?

Also.. all of your aftermarket pieces don't match your paint color

OP's car is BWP, but the lip kit might be PWP. But I'm not even 100% sure the lip kit matches OEM PWP.

They're reps, and they're all over ebay.

FYI, there's no such thing as a JDM/EDM Type S rear lip. The Type S rear is a completely different bumper from the base TSX, and is actually the same bumper that comes standard on the TSX SE.
