i don't really like the murdered-out look personally, but i think your setup would look better if you dropped your car a little. way too much wheel gap if you want to pull the look off.

Everything is straight man except the rims. It sets look of the car back. Lower it and try some new rims man.

alot of negative feedback on the rims...well since right now im not trying to spend more $ on other set of wheels, the plan is to black out those wheel bolts or whatever they call..so i can have a more black look..and i do agree at the fact that the wheels are not the best and they might now look as great..but in person is a total different look. and yes a drop will def make the car look alot better..how low you guys think i should go ? i do live in NJ and we have winter here lol and alot of bumps n potholes

paint the bolts on the wheels and get some springs. or save for coilovers. I cant wait to get mine, i realy hate the TSX wheel gap. I wish i bought coilovers before i got my rims, but you live and learn/

I would get coilovers since you have the winters. Just adjust them, that's what I did down here in VA. We get snow too but not as bad as you guys lol. Not into the whole black out look but if it's what you want then cool. I would get the coilovers before new rims though and then save up for a nice set

Car looks ok I like the grill a lot. No so much the taillights and wheels though. But definitely do something about that wheel gap.
