Help! Can't Decide on Last bodykit piece

Hi everyone. I need help choosing the last piece for my bodykit. The rear piece (and probably the side skirts).

I'm set on the Euro R front

I can't decide on the rear at all.

1. USDM/Modulo/Aspec rear w/ matching side skirts
2. Euro R rear w/ matching side skirts

Please help me decide! give me reasons why one is better than the other! They both look awesome hence I can't decide for myself...

Also... can anyone tell me the difference between the stock side and Euro R side? I've been staring at the Euro-R comparison pics for hours (literally) and can't see a thing.

Edit: Hi mods... can you please help make the (1) and (2) above into a poll? I did the poll option but guess it didn't go through because my internet failed at the time I submit this...

I personally would go with the Euro-R rear end to complete the look…there is a difference between the Euro-R sides vs. the USDM sides, hopefully people will chime in with some pictures.

so for the pole 1+ for Euro-R rear.

i personally don't like the a-spec rear, b/c it looks a little too slapped on with the lines.

the a-spec sides are a little more aggressive looking than the euro-r sides.

i have the full euro-r kit going. i'm happy with it.

did you see the ones i posted here?

i recently got some teins and play to get them installed at the end of the month, so the wheel gap won't be as bad.

hey xjohnkdoex, your ride is pretty clean. The Euro R rear looks pretty good on your color. I'm surprised. I've only been able to see the Euro R rear on PWP TSX's. Also, can you tell me the difference between the stock and euro R side skirts? Now I'm more edged towards the Euro R rear...

Sorry, I like to take a VERY long time (as in months) in making decisions to minimize regrets... especially ones involving my car

there are a lot of pics in the photos section, but i'll help you out.

here's the OEM a-spec of 07+. these are pics of pacman821's car which like it has the full a-spec kit (spoilers, rims, etc..). notice the line/flare coming out of the sideskirt. it flows with flares at the ends of each front/back lips.




here's my 07 with the euro-r kit. note that the sides don't have the same flares/lines as the OEM version. it's a lot more subtle, a little fuller than the stock sides. but still flows nicely with the front and back.






so judge for yourself. good luck!

Oh okay... I think I'm beginning to see what you're talking about. so It's a tad bit wider than stock. Thanks for your help. Much appreciated.

I was actually going off of this photo to see the difference.
