^^ I dont think he said it was anything special, he was just making a introduction.
Welcome to the forum. From what we can see the car looks clean, good start.
Next mod, take off the tow hook.

to save the trouble for everyone..
personally i think the tow hook looks bad on a mid size luxury sedan...especially when it serves the same function as a factory hook...especially when you arent really even dropped or have a lip you need to protect.
but otherwise, nice looking car and thanks for sharing.

^ Not really.
There is a growing number of members on here that have Sport Maxx (XXR) wheels. I must say, the new designs that they're coimg out with look nice. We know they're not the strongest, most durable wheels out there, but some of them do look nice. And if you don't have $2000, or $3000 to drop on wheels, then I think they are a good alternative.

XXR's are good considering their price. i like the xxr 521 since they closely resemble the work vs-xx which cost 1k+ in comparison. i wish they had it in silver finish though.. instead of only flat black/gold

don't feel the need to rock real legit rims when everyone is out there scoping you for them. rather not end up on blocks of wood/bricks.
stock wheels are becoming more popular now as well because most have stock wheels and u cant really tell them apart unless u did something to them...
but aftermarket are still in scope view for people

Let's face it, no matter what you do, if someone wants your rims they're going to jack them unless they get caught.
If we all lived in fear, we might as well just stay in our basements, no need for cars

I guess, I guess I live in an area where that isn't as commonplace. More importantly, you can get wheel locks for your rims. I know this doesn't stop anyone but hopefully it stymies them long enough for you/someone to notice.

haha okay.
in other news (since no one would answer this in my own thread), i just got a radar detector and wanted to hardwire it and place it by the rear view mirror. however, i have 20% tint + factory blue tint on that part of the windshield. would the radar detector's effectiveness be reduced?

It probably does!! Im saying on a more possitive note though, that the rims are more suited for integra, civic, accord, etc. Look better and function better. I prefer quality, performance, and function over looks! Cant stand the "Moar Lower", "JDM as F*ck" etc etc etc.

nothing special, no "JDM" stickers, no cut springs, no xxr/sport maxx rims, no tow wook etc etc etc (of course lip still is not painted yet). Your accord probably does shit over it, but like i said, i'de rock the stockies than the xxr. You have a luxury type car, with extremely cheap and ugly set of wheels. I guess if you are like him, win win situation for you!

Look at this TSX. It has the same wheels as the OP:

No cut springs. No JDM stickers. Etc..
I think that TSX looks sick. I think I would rock those wheels instead of the stockies. But hey that's just me.
the am tl on cinder blocks belongs to my friend's friend; saw it in person a few times, loved the stance on the le37's. shame that some dirty assholes took em :/
