It just doesnt seem to follow the factory lines of the accord. It just juts out all of the sudden and then stops.

my fave look on 5th gen is Greddy front lip and Wtype sides and rear. clean, urethane, and smoothe. that looks like touring lip on front only. a drop is definately needed but i didnt have to tell you that. the 94-95 accord coupe EX looks good stock and doesnt take too much modding to look really nice

this is a 97 coupe... yup, its a WW touring lip, unpainted (to match the unpainted ss's) and the drop isnt enough? they are riding on nuespeed sports... i told him not to go to low cuz of clearance, treadwear problems...

i like the front lip.. but it doesn't look like the same color as the car... paint it... and maybe drop it a little.. and the car would look very clean

No, the sports are black for the Accord (red on VWs)... the green ones may be Soft Sports...

stupid reason, the guy who sold the rims to my friend, didn't give him the lugs! so my friend had to use his stock ones... the one's that go over the hubcaps. so the exposed lugnuts are too long to put the center cap... plus, cap-less give it a RICEBOY look!

I think the lip would look better if the lip and the OEM side skirts were painted as well. The car needs to definitely go lower. If your friend is worried about being too low I recommend Eibach Pro-kits. I have them on my car and the drop did not warrant camber kits and the look was much lower than what your friend has.
