When you say I have to paint the area after it has been cut, would Honda touch up paint work?
Looks good. Very clean. I just don't particularly like the looks of the factory tail lights, and DIY smoked headlights; even though I have smoked headlights on my car right now, too. I'm going to get a new set of black-housing TYC's, though.
I'm probably in the minority, with most of my opinions, though. *shrug* lol
