Not really feeling the rims.. Probably the red paint. Imo the GS is a luxury car, not a civic.. Looks very clean though

I think the red is over-exposure. But it's all good if you like it.

i like it. but i dont see coloured lips much here in Australia.
chrome lips with black faces is boring as hell if it is in a fairly 'mild' setup like yours. i would prefer your red lips over that. if you look at Japan there are quite a few cars with brightly coloured lips, i think its a different look.

figured id get mixed emotions about the rims haha. I like them though. I like to be different. I keep getting people rolling down there windows at stoplights and tellin me they like the rims. They really do look better in person. PIctures suck. lol
