Thanks!!!  That was actually the quick Labor-Day weekend clean-up.  I didn''t even do the trim-shine or final inspection detailer.  Mojo leaves a nice finish and I kinda just want to finish that can to get rid of it.  I like it''s results, but the sprayer only works right for the first 2 applications.  I spray it on the rag now since it doesn''t spread like it''s supposed to.

The TRD is on my strut tower bar.  I''m going to have to take a look at it when I get home.  I never noticed the scratches on the left side of the TRD before ..... I think I might have left the packaging tape on there.

Lol, I was looking at the Tc before I got the Accord. Your wheels are nicer.

Both have pro''''s and cons.  I want to get these rims+KDW''''s and keep the OEM+Toyos for the winter.



and for those that have been around forever ...... yes, these are the same ones that I was looking at for the accord.

yeah ..... I''d like to have a lip, but it wouldn''t look the same.  I''ve never been a fan of the bolts around the lip ..... too hard to clean.  With how often I clean my car, I never need much more than water to clean the rims.  I still haven''t put Wheel Shield on the tC''s rims..... I need to do that.

Not bad, but I think it''s a bit too boxy for the lines of the 8th gen coupe.

I''d prefer these:

The top pic is something you would see on a late 80s Integra, the bottom pic is nice, just a little to nice for me. Its also a popular rim on the F150 forum.

The bottom rim my cousin had on his A4 Audi and it looked great and it was also Silver.
