1) upload your pics to www.tinypic.com
2) after it's finished uploading, use the link they give you
3) click the "insert image" icon (yellow background w/ grey mountains)
4) select your picture, then hit ok

too much contrast imo.
my suggestions are:
paint the lip kit, take tint off taillights and tint the white part a lil bit, black house the headlights and grill pieces

you had the wrong link. right click on the picture and choose properties then copy the jpeg link. pictures will only show up if they have a jpeg, gif, png ending

hm.. i see you have lots of jdm pride inside and outside of your car..

- not really feeling the unmatched lipkit .. maybe if you got rims to compliment that (like black rims with red lip), it would look okay.

- i see you're missing a small piece of your side molding near your left front fender well

it would look hot with the front grill and lipkit color matched fpr. also take that vtec sticker off, seems too ricey imo. btw.. what kinda exhaust do you have ? greddy ?

Paint the kit. It just does not look fitting at all. The tinted taillights don
t work well with the red either, just my opinion.

Look, you got one if not the nicest color on the TL in my opinion. You're taking it away with the black lip. Red and black looks good together but it's not easy to pull it off. Look at Rockstar21's car for ex. and you'll know what I'm talking about. Color match the lip and get darker wheels and it will flow a lot better. Just my . And lucky you that you already have the black interior .

You have a good foundation, just need to clean it up. We drive a sport luxury car. Not a pizza-hut tuner.

Paint the lip kit, black house headlights, lighter tint on the tails, and you're set. If you still want that two tone, I guess you could leave the front lip black, but me, eh, I'd color match.

i get bored easily..

once a car is "finished" in my eyes... its only a matter of time before i start looking around..

what i need is a car with expensive parts.. that will take me longer to mod.

i'll be done with this lude in like, 6 months lol.

i really like the 03-06 Accord V6 6spd's.
i may move on to that next... or an 06+si coupe.







worst part... is last i heard the new owner put 22's on her...

as cool as these cars are and as much as i liked mine.. it was a ticking time bomb (tranny) and im sure that has been accelerated by the 22's on it now..





also, OP.. paint the inside of the grille back to black.. it doesnt flow well with the red in the middle.. maybe paint the frame red and leave the middle black(stock)

and if your gonna claim JDM, you better get some JDM parts on there lol.

if you like the two-tone kit, rock it.

but the stickers have to go. all of them. "I <3 my Acura" was easily the worst of the bunch. sheesh. there's a reason nobody puts stickers on a Bentley... and I assure you they love their Bentley.

on second thought, i'm sure google will produce images of a Bentley with stickers on it. somebody produce.

What flags are those inside... one looks like it might be Ecuador and the other maybe Guyana?

(and I like the painted lip like Rockstar had but to each their own... as long as you enjoy it that's all that really matters)
