    lol, are you serious? Did you forget to log out? I mean, a coming out of the closet joke or someone posting your car up for sale for 1/5th the value would be more entertaining than this.

    The best thing i've read on IA all day! Exchanging extremely heavy fiberglass parts for durable & lightweight OEM urethane. I've but Tein SS on an '01 Coupe before...black with black wheels and no lip and look just fine. The headlight mod (eyebrow) makes it look aggressive too.

    see i like this stance.and it dosnt have a lip. but also the rims kinda makes a good look for the car also.
    i still have bags on the accord so i can still slam it down to the ground.

    ugh, needs to be lowered in the rear and those 27lb wheels thrown away never to be put on another car again

    An Advan RG replica wheel (Rota Boost?) would be hot on that car OR even Subzero's:
