New pics, 06 WDP TL Painted wheels

I painted my wheels with Duplicolor Gun Metal Metalic grey paint. 3 coats of primer, 3 coats of paint, and 3 coats of clear. Headlights will get cleared soon and painted grey on the inside, maybe 2 corona rings, Tein SS also, 35% tint, I want lower grill Accord fog lights where they belong, maybe a TL-S grill and trim, TLS tails amd rear side markers and AEM V2 going in soon.

looks good. There is too much color differences going on for my eyes.

Ex: The interior color and the wheels. You have to tint your car.

Judging from the tread pattern they look like Michelin Pilot Sport A/S.

Thanks much. Yes they are Michelin Pilot Sport A/S.

No its not lowered, in fact those pics are without a rear seat, spare, sub, the rear came up an inch. Tein SS lowered about 1-1.25" will be installed once its 50 degrees here???

35% Tint will be done in April 09.

GO SOX !!!

I have no idea about the fish bowl ???

I really like it! It will look even better once you get it tinted up in a few months. I have 35% all around on my 04 WDP

I have aftermarket wheels on right now but I do miss my stockies sometimes .

May I ask why you have the rear seat taken out?

i'm assuming he's getting ready to install the tein ss and/or weight reduction. I took my rear seat out ahead of time since it can be a pain to remove.
