I think the lights are kinda cool. Looks kinda like something out of a sci-fi movie. The OEM grill is beautiful! You should have never messed with it in my opnion. To each his own though

^^ Agreed. That home depot grill thing is so '00. Keep in mind when modding, the car isnt a honda civic.

I think a more subtle amount of ambient light from the floor (i.e.: foot areas) would look good, but having them pointing up like that is UGLY! Too many shadow lines, instead of glowing ambiance!!!

The grill...

Well all the blue lihts actually dont stay on. The ones in the trunk is just my JBL amp that came with blue lights, I really never have that open. And then the dome light is only on when you open the door. The only one that is on is the home link mod when you turn on the headlight.

Oh and the grille... Luckly it only cost me $1.60 per grille.... Ill take some day pics, it dosnt look that bad, its not the diamond cut either-Ill have to get closer to show you all... Thanks for the opinons.

I thinks it works untill I want to empty my wallet for the good stuff..

no offense to the other people but I like the blue interior and I plan to replace every single bulb in my cab w/ blue LEDs. They last longer and look better to me.

As for the grille, I prefer the black grill mod but the diamond grill looks ok.

In the end bro' it's your car. When you try to come out differently not everyone is going to like it. I had someone say my Devo's look like shit at a party I was at when I had them on....anyway..... I say if you like it keep it, if not go back to the drawing board for a re-do. That's personally why I like Honda/Acura...if you do something you don't like to it it's fairly easy to undo and start over.

Well always remember opinions are like assholes....everyone has one. Don't be offended. It's your car, do whatever you like with it.

Yeah don't be offended, not worth it.

I'm not a fan of any of the mods, they're all somewhat ricey, IMO.
