What's done is done...love it or hate it(pics)
Well, about 2 weeks ago I did a photochop of som ebronze rims on my car...with mixed reaction, I decided to go ahead do it...

Here are the pics...let me know what ya'll think. I really wanted to do something a little different instead of black/silver/gunmetal...

Nice. But it makes your red honda emblem look out of place now.

Very nice -Really unique, you dont see to many copper colored rims with a silver machine lip. I agree though, the red emblem looks out of place. If you got a grill to match your front bumper mesh grill that would look great. But anyway, very nice job, looks great.

There'd be too much mesh if you got an upper mesh grill. Just put the stock emblem back on and it will fit with your silver polished lip theme.

i like it! you should smoke or tint your blinkers so that they match the bronze a little more. you know what i mean? but it looks clean.

thanks everybody. Hmm, the red emblem thing...I didn't think of that...I'll do some more thinkin on it.
I used to have the top grillecraft piece but I hated the way it looked so I took it off. About the rear lip, I had one on there, but the fitment sucked and it wouldn't sit on it right, so I took it off. I want to get the WW G5 rear skirt.

you'd like it more if you changed the grills to black grillcraft. the silver looks off on black cars.

Not bad at all. I like the bronze with black. Would look even better without the polished lip though, which kind of detracts from the bronze/black contrast.

Pics of the rear before the "rim job" and before I took the rear lip off...check out how it drooped on one side...POS (but it was my fault...can't blame nobody else..life's little lessons, I guess)
