| one of my favorite ef's is a white dx with oem black bumpers, slammed on work's (trying to find a pic)
i think the accord could look sick with the black bumper on the new wheels, but will look miss-matched with the white rear bumper? | |

| Yes it will/does look mismatched at the mo, but I cant find a new rear bumper in this country. It's not worth painting the back to match, it needs replacing. | |

[...pictures and stuff...]
If my wheels had spokes they WOULD be that colour, they are going to look off the scale once fitted...shame about painting the bolts though... | |

| Thanks. Yeh the bolts could do with being silver again really. Problem was they sheared if we tried to remove them, and my budget didnt allow for buying new ones this close to JAE. I'm happy with how they look anyway, so unless I sell them on, it's on the to-do list. Just gotta sort friggin tyres out or I'll be rolling on 225's to JAE HellaChunky. | |
