Used 2012 LX sedan

[Blackafino]

Hey everyone, been lurking on the forum for a few weeks now after purchasing my 2012 lx in august. Was looking for a car for quite some time and found a good deal on it with 32k miles. Planning to do a lot exterior mods slowly over time, but for now I've added 6k HIDs, debadged, tinted, K&n drop filter,added mugen style window visors and plasti dipped the hub caps planning on getting new wheels and tires next any suggestions?

Nice car. And welcome. Wheels are ridiculous. You'll buy some, be in love for a month then fall in love with another set. Good luck.

Welcome to the forum. A number of people dislike the chrome grill. You could do plastidip on that too if you'd like.

Great start and welcome to the forum! Look forward to seeing the progress of your ride. Not gonna lie, I thought you were making a mustache and pointing at the "h" emblem on the back before I realized what you were doing, lol.

Welcome

Congrats on the purchase. I know your license plate is from New Jersey and starts with a "W" and ends in a "S"

Thanks! Yeah I've just been looking at wheels and my mind has changed a few times, im pretty sure i found a set that im gonna go with. The Konig oversteers in black, any suggestions on the best offset?

Yeah not really a big fan of the chrome also, was thinking about plasti dipping it but im also interested in the si grill, any options on oem or ebay rep grills?

Haha yeah seen a few people blur out plates, was too lazy to edit it so went with the fingers. Thanks! got a lot of work ahead of me, was thinking about doing a build thread but it will be a super slow one.

Some people swap the si grill on and just remove the "si" piece.

yeah definitely gonna remove the si part but i've seen that the si grill the metal part is painted black, still not sure whether to go oem or buy on ebay.

I'm pretty sure that upper part is just painted black plastic where yours is just a chrome type plating on top of plastic.

The oem parts aren't cheap. These are the oem parts for the SI for about 35-40 dollars off per part from honda msrp-

the front mesh grill part -
