the blacked out window trim, the aviator grille like the 03-05 coupe??? can honda not decide what to keep and what to get rid of? over all, it seems that all the coupe needs is wider fender flares, large rims and some distinquishing characteristics like the grille! to look good. the complicate things to much. as my mom as said "keep it simple stupid". and its true, the the 5, 6, 7th gens were all simple designs. the more honda tries, the worse it comes out.

Piano/black trim instead of chrome is generally the idea behind sportiness. That is why 2003-2007 Accord Coupe didn't have it, while sedan did. That is why 2004-2008 TL doesn't have it. And I think, once in a while, use of chrome should be put to rest.

I meant 2003-07 Accord Coupe/2004-08 TL didn't go for chrome surround. They have piano-black finish.

I think chrome looks better around the windows vs black chrome!
