I HATE painted mouldings and completely painted bumpers. I say paint them with black bumper paint.

black mouldings and bumper usually mean lower model/base cars

True, my old Suzuka Blue hatch would have looked retarded with black moldings.

yeah thats what im sayin

if I throw up a pic on here youd never know

its a trade off I guess do I take the time/effort to tape the front/ rear bumpers to not have to paint the sides

or skimp on the bumpers and have to paint the sides

I think this car looks good with black moldings, sides, lips, etc., but would look better if they were painted.


Painted moldings, but clashes with lip/sides, IMO.


I think you either have to paint it all to match, or leave it all black (i.e. SiR lip, sides, moldings, etc)


Not painted.


My favorite is all painted, this is how mine will be done. It looks classier, more expensive, better to me.

Indeed.







The side skirts finish it off. They are often over looked.

of course its not going to fit.
The US trunk and JDM wing are not completely compatible due to the JDM wing being longer at the bottom. So those lil black things (window seal protectors) that go up the side of the windows get in the way of the Wing so it won't sit completely flush unless you cut at them.

Thought you knew cuz everyone else does

j/k
I didn't know either thats why i just sold mine and got a J's wing instead

I didnt get it to fit someone. I got it mainly because it was cheapish. And different. I like to for some reason be a little different, not JDM or EDM. I dont give a **** about that crap. Even though some things JDM look nicer. Ie the front end.

I alos like how i impulse bought the composites fab carbon fiber sunroof plug. But someone in my area also pick it up to haha. But eh only 2 in the area isnt to bad. Haha.

As far as for the rear seat. Im getting some material in few days to see which im going to choose. Im going to freshen it up. Maybe with some black alcantara/suede or whatever else looks nice.

Edit: the colors i ordered to see. Some weird ones. They were all free so i just ordered whatever haha.

Reptilian Vinyl olive, Stretch Velvet black, Stretch Velvet dark red, Ultra Suede black, Ultra Suede magenta, Ultra Suede navy, Ultra Suede red, Upholstery Faux Suede black, Upholstery Faux Suede red, Upholstery Faux Suede slate gray, Upholstery Vinyl black, Upholstery Vinyl white

yeah thats why I never took close up pictures when I had mine on.
So you know what I'm talking about though right??
those black things are hindering the wing from going completely down like it should.

Cuz I'm smarter then the average bear. I just purchased a 16" L.E.D. and wired it up to my brake light instead of using a hypebeast JDM EF9 wing y0.
