Pardon the sloppiness:
Would look better with thin chrome outlining the grille (didn't have time to do that)...
The sedan's grille no doubt is very last gen Sonata from this angle...
I'm sure other angles will do some justice to the new styling...

Nice. I never liked liberal use of chrome on a single area; it looks more tasteful as sparse, thin accents.
Google Chrome is fine though!

The Coupe looks much better that way,,,If you want to have more fun, try bluing out the fog light surround & Door Handels + black out the chrome on the lower grill and around the windows-->PLEASE!!

I thought the coupe's grill would look great in a piano black type finish... anyone care to try the look in photoshop? I lack the skills, unfortunately.

Nice, Turk. I wouldn't be surprised if sport model actually has the chrome piece body colored just as you have done.

Like this? I didn't touch the logo because Honda wouldn't either, and maybe the chrome bars should stay.

Looks good! I agree that the logo and chrome bars would best be left as they are :) thanks.

Good call Turk! I've done exactly that mod to several Honda/Acuras over the years. Just never been a big fan of too much bright work on a car. The more monochrome look still appeals to me, but I know that chrome BLING is what many want these days.

Blacked out grill surround kinda reminds me of this -

I agree. Painted or black just looks cheap not upscale.

Exactly..perhaps something like that might be an HFP item for other sedans or the coupes.
In general, the chrome is more restrained this time around..looks good!
