Probably won't do much, but that little trunk "wing" and the tail lights are very nice.

maybe it reduces the amount of rain onto your rear window? haha, just guessing

because i hate how our cars dont have rear wipers and sometimes the rain doesnt bead off very well and its hard to see through the rear window.

i didn't ask what it was for haha, i just wanted to know what it did. and actually i bet you it does help with moving the air over the car. It looks like the same thing as a bug deflector on the front of cars.

it's cool, I'm just messin arround. no offence, but I don't really like the look yours because they are a bit too close for me and it looks too "busy" with all three emblems but as long as you like the look And yes, atleast it is the right generation.

actually, I've seen a few other pictures of JDM Accords that had the rear wipershield wiper. I want to say it was an option but I'm real sure. I remember reading about it somewhere before I just can't recall exactly.

acutally the "accord Coupe" emblem is a One Piece: http://shopresponse.com/jdm_ac....html

and i've moved my "SiR emblem lower more away from the "accord coupe" emblem. cause i also thought it didnt look right when i first put the SiR emblem on.
