it doesn't look bad. I think that the rims are clean. Almost look like a Skyline GT-R rim. Not a bad look.

I say you go ahead and paint or peel the rear lip too. Maybe even the sides. And that red Acura Logo on the front grill I can do without, maybe you could get a white one.

Your car is still hott tho. Good Job!
