Dont forget the WINDOW BLACK CHROME TRIM.

Only BMW does that on its M3 or its a 300 dollar option for the 330 coupes.

i actually thought saturn astra when i saw the gauges, tacky gm styling from cobalt with the orange inserts in the interior, plastic ugly pleather seats with strange designs remind me of either a 90's hyundai or the element sc(yuck, the seats anyways), body trim taken straight from the 03-07 sema accord coupe, rims are rims, grill from 03-05 accord and tailights a copy of scion. from the side, it bears a resemblance to the volvo c30. the fenders and such. but truly, a 30+ accord should not look like a 20-25k volvo entry level car. sad, sad, sad. you know very well this type of upgrade would cost thousands more than its worth. it will look unique though on the road cause no one else will be driven it for that much.

Yep. Its been a coupe thing on Honda/Acura, except on the TL. I don't think Prelude had chrome either.

I think we're all forgetting something very crucial here.


This car has four wheels. Wasn't BMW making cars before Honda was? I rest my case.

In 2003+ Accord coupe and 2004+ TL, Honda does. I don't know if they use that trim in the past. But "blacked out" window surround has been around (and the choice over chrome) for several years before that, in sportier trims, just like removing chrome from grill for sport trims (Civic Si). Here is another example...
Regular (JDM) Accord


Accord Euro-R


You would notice the difference in their grill too (Euro-R has body colored surround with all-black mesh, while regular version has chrome strips all over).

Wasn't the designer of the previous gen Accord actually a previous Saturn designer?
