How to make a DD Accord not look so homo

[smug]

So I traded in the GXP a couple months ago for a 2010 Accord coupe EX-L, Black on Black, leather, sunroof, heated seats, upgraded audio with factory sub and amp, ect. Very nice car, like it so far and I hope that it does not give my the problems that I had with the GXP.

Okay this is stock, pic I found on google but my car did look exactly the same. Nothing to special at all.

Window tint is a must, 20% is key and I had set up and time with in the first week of owning the car car. Oh yea the homo front plate was off with in the first five minuets and Illinois and lick my ass about that.

Next up is the terrible looking 17" wheels. Went with some 18" TSW Vortex wheels, simple yet clean and classy and I can run them year round.

Now it looks like a monster truck and I cant have that. At first I ordered some Eibach springs but that were on back order forever so I just went with a set of H&R springs. I just put the springs on this afternoon and love the way the car sits.

There you have it.

Tint
Wheels
lowering springs

I also added
V6 lip spoiler on the trunk lid
5000K HID lights
LED interior lights

I will detail the car and take some nice pictures for every one to see Monday or Tuesday but you get the idea.

I actually like the stock wheels better, but looks good.

 

[Mook]

Thanks guys. Turk and one other person has said that they like the stock wheels better, I could not stand them at all. I was going to buy a set of wheels from a 2011 Acura TL and I had a take off set all picked out on ebay, but I then found out they changed the bolt pattern when the Acura was redesigned.

This is the wheel I had in mind and they look sick as fuck in person

Wow that's a good looking accord. Didn't think it possible to make one of those really look "cool". Between the options, year, reliability, and new looks you've got yourself an awesome DD.

Powdercoat those 18's black. I agree with Turk, those stock wheels arent that bad.

 

[BillyBru]

black on black is too played out.

I disagree, right low it looks good, black wheels would take it from sexy to riced out real quick.

Yeah, but at least on an older one you're not ruining a nice new car, and sometimes it's just funny once it gets to a certain point.
