jdm style 2004 part 2

okay i have to put on the rest of the lips to see what it would look like black, before i go and paint them white.
but alot of my friend say keep it black, or send them to a shop to get them carbon fiber, cuz they would look good, with the car slammed and a nice pair of rotas.

so again my question is should i go paint them, and have a clean look ???

or keep them black, and have a jdm style to the car????

It would be cool if you painted the top portion of your taillights to make it look like the Acura TSX/Honda Accord taillights. Anyway, I am not feeling the black lip kit on a white car, I'd normally leave a black lip kit on a yellow car, but whatever you like is all that should matter.

Get the lips done in carbon fiber.
Get a carbon fiber hood and trunk.
Get some rims with a deep lip.
Black-out your headlights.
Get a "type-r" grill if you can and paint the lip white.
Slam it!

I think it'll look pee-in-your-pants-sweet after that.

Hey sumo, paint it all white, mold it on if you have the time (and loot).

Unfortunately a CF hood would be an all-custom job...easily a couple grand. Same with trunk.

Likeaferio, 2004 EL's come with stock blacked headlights already. Also a typeR grille won't fit. Only the BC grille fits (not very well at that). I've already peed my pants though.

since were in the US Id say go with paint, not that it looks bad. Tho it is hard to tell from one pic. If you keep it black you might look cheap or somthing.

OMG zen I really do think you are the dumbest person on this site. I see you post the stupidest things or replys.

Its a F*cking acura el from canada. There is nothing jdm about the tails because it isn't even in Japan. It is a civic with Acura badges.
