Question Poll on what to do with rear bumper. (Dunno how to post polls.)

As some of you know, I'm disliking the look of the stock 01-03 rear bumper. IMO, it looks too high. From the side it just doesn't line up with the rest of the body. So instead of giving myself one option I've now given myself two options:

04 coupe rear bumper

-or-

01-02 rear lip (correction... 03 OEM rear was different and looked odd.)

I dunno anyone who sports just a rear lip on their rides. But I chose it because it really doesn't stick out like a typical aftermarket lip. It really looks like it's a part of the stock bumper. Unlike the 04 coupe I've never seen only the rear lip on a car... so yeah. I know if I don't like the lip I can always consider the 04 bumper. In my mind, it's a weird call.

Still contemplating on what to do. Thoughts welcome.

No I will not get a full kit. All attempts to convince me on getting one will be overlooked, thank you.

Just for those who don't know what the 04 coupe rear looks like:

Leaning towards the 04 Coupe rear bumper... although the votes of opinions are leaning towards the lip.

Still won't know for sure until I've seen it in person which'll hopefully be soon.

Nah, I don't like it. It looks like an air vent. 1/2 the lip is gone.

I have been looking for an 04 coupe and WTF, no one has'em. Berkeley's Honda better have it. I'm still basing judgement on pics...




The only thing I notice that I don't like about it is that it lacks lines like the first bumper. The design of the bumper dates back to the 5th gen Accord if you haven't noticed how the ends stick out slightly like fins. It doesn't stick out too much and from the rear where the exhaust is at, it looks nice... a lot nicer than the 01-03 stock bumper. I guess it's just me and a few others.

I really... need to find an 04! Maybe I'll just go to San Leandro.
