Not a fan of that Mugen spoiler - nor the high upturned U one either.
The wheels don't work for me - they just don't look right with the very low sidewall. I'm assuming they're 20's?
I think 19's would've been better suited.
Sorry, but it's only one opinion.

She's a beauty!!! I really like that spoiler! That and the M3 lip spoiler woud work for me. I'm not a big spoiler fan either. I like your ride brutha! Not a fan of chrome wheels either, but it works for me.

Nice and clean. The mugen spoiler does look good, as long as you have the full kit to go with it.

Like always your car looks hot! No doubt about it. But in my opinion, tinted head lights are little bit too much Don't mined. That thing looks great, no metter what.

The car is nice, but I don't like the rims. Never liked 20's on the TSX before, and 20's with chrommies, well...

i think a set of sportier rims will match the sporty mugen kit a lot nicer

big deep dish wheels (ie HRE, Work, or iForge) do look good with a kit such as the kenstyle tho

just my 0.02

Very slick ride!

Did you put chrome window trim on?

Agree with the above, some jdm rims would match the car better. But as long as you're happy with your style

Chrome window trim is standard on the Euro/JDM Accords.

thanks everyone
yes, the chrome door handles and trim are stock standards. hahah funny how u envy the chrome door handles more than anything. LOL

the CE28N's (if i get them.....still tossing up between that or WEDS for dailys) will be in the traditional bronze, or i might get LE28's with gunmetal face and chrome lip.

The mugen kit is agressive, yes, but i like to explore all possibilities for this car. i.e show, race, jdm....which is why im gonna be getting lightweight JDM dish at the rears and conservative widths at the front. I think it will compliment it nicely with the widebody that im going with.

Something about you americans...it just seems like you dont like chrome? Maybe its just me...and hey im cool with that. Opinions are like arseholes, everyones got one. And i dont know, maybe its just me but i think the JDM scene is a lot bigger there than here. Everything is JDM this, JDM that (which isnt a bad thing)
But the reason why i went for the chrome rims is that i thought it complimented the car nicely with the other chrome "bits" like the handles and the trim. Which is also why i went JDM by picking AME Modelarts. If you search up AME WHEELS, you will find out that they are JDM. ^^

But of course, even though the rims may be JDM, the styling might not be suited to everyones tastes. I personally found it to suit my tastes and thats exactly what i wanted. To do up a car my own way and style without caring about what pple thought. sure, i can take their opinions and criticisms on board, but doesnt mean i have to change my car just to satisfy them.

My next goal is to finally get the airbags up and running as well as a widebody and full respray in candy black with gold and silver metallic pearls...but since im graduating end of next year, im going travelling around asia with friends who i am graduating with and yes, i shall be going to JAPAN as well so i'll make sure to take many happy snaps for all u JDM lovers

I dont know why i rambled on like this....its 2:20am in the morning here and i couldnt sleep. LOL
