Well, it's a start but not enough. It still looks too Bangle-ized.

At first i didn't notice the difference, but the top 2 are the old ones, and the bottom two are the new ones. Very slight changes. I think the only thing that MIGHT need changing is the headlights, but then again i would never buy this car so they have to suit the market.

Stil ungainly front and rear. It's like Bangle didn't go to design school and study aestetics. Can I have his job?

i don't think the current trunk is bad, its just the headlights which are all deformed. as far as the black pic, i bet if you put the same work into a civic it would look just as good

i bet after they take off the masking from the front, then the car will be much improved than before.
