updated pics finally! 56k=death

i gotta say i love how the TLS rims look on my car. ive gotten a lot of looks locally, compliments (locally and on forums)..even had someone say "dude my best friends brother put those rims on his acura" < LOL

finally got my H center caps friday and put them on. and finally decided to give 'er a wash yesterday and went to a few different places to take pics. got some night pics as well which finally are coming out a little better since now i am using my tripod when i use "nightmode" on my camera. i have a kodak v603 6.1megapixel (non SLR, non HD) so back off! lol













(i really like this pic)

Too much black. the contrast of the taillights I think is good on black cars. If the ligths were slightly tinted it may be fine, but I've never been a fan of tinting the red portion of tailights, tinting the clear portions i think looks sweet on some model cars.

Sorry bro, love your interior and system setup, but I don't like the interior and never have liked the 3G TL-S wheels.

At least you haven't tinted your headlights and your rims aren't black (because if they were your car would have zero contrast).

i like the rims, they look sweet
also loving the tail lights/ headlights- I don't know how the headlights look at close distance, but from the pics they look pretty good

ur tint is really dark- what do you have it at?
I've got a white accord; so at night my tint looks much darker then it really is

(btw- does anyone know the legal tint limit for IL?)

Wow, those ugly-ass wheels actually look good on something. Car looks good. I don't like everything, but overall, it looks good. Now lower it.

is it me or does anyone else feel that rain guards look on coupes such as the accord/CL?? you have the two little windows in the back with nothing on them, it just doesnt flow right...i have never liked the 07-08 type S wheels and still feel the same way...i do appreciate the blacked out look but it looks like you're trying too hard and yeah, those fart cans look fugly and probably sound the same...to each his own

Damn, we're some harsh motherfuckers on this board

You definitely need a drop but the amazing thing about the Accord is that 18s look tiny on that thing.

I think the car looks good. There are some things that make it a little more "busy" than I'd like but that's just being picky.

Nice Accord, the TLs wheels look pretty good on a coupe. I always wanted to see how they would look on my 6th gen. The HIDs are nice too. Like everyone else, a drop would do wonders.

No tint on windshield and front side windows. Any tint on rear side windows and rear window, if you have two side mirrors which mostly everyone does.

Car looks great. The rims are nice, but I'm just not a fan of the 07-08 TL-S rims. Even on the TL-S

I'm not a huge fan of tinted taillights but that's JMO. A drop will make it look much better though. I couldn't stand looking at my Accord with no drop after putting on my new wheels so I had to get springs. I love it now even though now I get you should've gone lower. You can never please everyone so just do what makes you happy. I'm very happy with my 1.3" drop, not too low and not a 4x4 anymore.

tls rims are 18s to the guy who said something about the size lol.

going with h&r 2.2/2.0 race springs and kyb agx gas shocks adjustable for the drop

hfp lip kit soon as well

go ahead and donate money!

haven't had time to readjust the mufflers but it can be done. plus the rear lip kit will cover up most of that shit anyways...

why's everyone so harsh? damn! lol
