View Full Version : Blacked Out lower rear bumper & deck lid
Arash 04-19-2009, 03:15 AM First got the lower rear bumper & deck lid foiled in matt black for AED90 ($24.50)
Then decided to do the same with the roof, front and rear emblems. Cost me all together AED200 ($55)
Also 30% tint all around.

AlJoKeR 04-19-2009, 04:06 AM Very NICE ..
DON'T COPY MY WORK AND IDEAS =P
Joking bro ... ( MABROOOK )
Mabroooook
It is very nice with the white coupe
Arash 04-19-2009, 04:13 AM i didn't :) Had said it that i had to visit the place but didn't have time until last Friday. Thanks.
Takumi 04-19-2009, 04:49 AM I liked the idea for the lower rear bumper but not so much for the deck lid. You may wanna try blacked out the top too.
The_One_Coupe 04-19-2009, 05:29 AM OP do you have an ex coupe or a V6? nice quad exhaust!
zexen 04-19-2009, 06:05 AM OP do you have an ex coupe or a V6?
His trunk says V6.
ChickenCoupe09 04-19-2009, 06:50 AM Everything looks great except for the decklid (JMHO). Looks unpainted to me.
htownbbv6 04-19-2009, 07:22 AM I got it foiled in matt black for AED90 ($24.50) ...i like the idea...whenever it start showing bubbles or the color fades then i would paint it.

I respect your mod but why would you do that?:dunno:
Yung_Melo 04-19-2009, 07:25 AM I honestly like em both the way they are... looks a lil fast and the furiousish :thmsup:... I wonder will this work on the sedans because I've seen it before on the Toyota Camry SE version and always liked it... Anyone willing to pull the trigger for the sedan guys? I'll do it if someone can tell me how!
mizzike28 04-19-2009, 08:26 AM i'm feeling it with the white finish. I don't think that would look good on PMM

Trigger already pulled, but only half the people that were interested paid, so we got nowhere and right now it's dead in the water until we get enough money to get the template made.
Bsi523 04-19-2009, 08:52 AM I like the lower bumper blacked out, not the wing and I agree i think it looks good on the white car but may not on some of the other colors
mizzike28 04-19-2009, 08:59 AM I like the aftermarket exhaust
Yung_Melo 04-19-2009, 09:00 AM Thanks for the link AgentWashington and i like it on the Audi and wish I knew about this earlier as I would've added myself to the list since I have an I4
Do you know if Foogaroos is still accepting requests or if it is dead in the water because he said he was going to use plastidip but I don't see where he went through with it yet.
I'd add myself to the list and I have a friend I'm sure would be willing to jump on this!
AgentWashington 04-19-2009, 09:13 AM Yeah he's still accepting requests, the more people the better!
mystick6 04-19-2009, 09:19 AM Lower bumper looks good. But the wing doesnt go...
Yung_Melo 04-19-2009, 09:34 AM Thanks A.W.... I just sent him a pm... hopefully we help can get this moving!
glen e 04-19-2009, 10:15 AM I'm just going to order a piece of black matte vinyl from decalzone.com that covers it and take it over to my tint guy and have him fit it...I think it's as easy as that...he agrees...
arasheht 04-19-2009, 11:32 AM This only looks good for the V6 version unfortunately. The stupid I4 has that flap for the HFP kit that covers the extra pipe-hole.
Looks really nice though, good job!
morcheez 04-19-2009, 11:37 AM i think it looks really good ...prepare to be copied haha
mizzike28 04-19-2009, 11:46 AM my ? is would that exhaust look good without the hfp underbody kits?
Has anyone do the smae with a polished metal seadan???
glen e 04-19-2009, 11:56 AM The stupid I4 has that flap for the HFP kit that covers the extra pipe-hole.
Vinyl will cover that seam with no problem...no one is going to inspect the job on a creeper....I doubt anyone but me in real life (not internet) will know the black piece is even there....
blacklisted 04-19-2009, 12:01 PM Gorgeous gorgeous gorgeous
The_One_Coupe 04-19-2009, 01:39 PM yah just didn't know why he put only "ex" coupe -- logical for me to assume it was a v6 -wheels, exhaust and shit .. but u never know .... saw a caliber with a vtec decal on it ...
arasheht 04-19-2009, 06:18 PM Vinyl will cover that seam with no problem...no one is going to inspect the job on a creeper....I doubt anyone but me in real life (not internet) will know the black piece is even there....
The HFP kit actually has a flap, see:
It would be difficult to cover it I figure.
GTFan712 04-19-2009, 06:22 PM I like the blacked out lower bumper, but the lip spoiler doesn't mix well with the white. Maybe if the car was a darker color, it would work, but maybe.

agreed - I'm just going to cover the cutout seam for the v6 left tailpipe
HondaGuido08c 04-20-2009, 11:21 AM Whered you get your exhaust from..is it just tips or is it an exhuast system..can i get the link plz
Dreamacre 04-20-2009, 11:32 AM I like the lower bumper blacked out, not the wing and I agree i think it looks good on the white car but may not on some of the other colors
Like Black? :lmao:
It looks good! :thmsup:
niterydah23 04-20-2009, 11:35 AM That looks sick bro...that was a nice little look to add to the Accord. I have the nighthawk black so there is no point in me doing that lol....
But to yours....:notworthy
morcheez 05-19-2009, 10:47 AM got my vinyl in today ....got a few other ideas that i will be trying out once i get some time
I think all the mods look terrific...
The twin-dual exhaust are superb...
The blacked out lower bumper looks good on the white...may not be acceptable on other colors...
The decklid spoiler...a carbon fiber finish would certainly have looked better...but creative thinking...kudos...
Big LrG 05-19-2009, 01:10 PM got my vinyl in today ....got a few other ideas that i will be trying out once i get some time
i cant wait to see how this looks on the ASM!!...if it turns out good i might do it also!
piranhaleg 05-19-2009, 01:37 PM looks good
blackv6 05-19-2009, 03:34 PM I think it looks great :)
TeA613 05-19-2009, 06:38 PM i wonder how it would look like on a blk accord coupe ! blk out rear end n blk matte bumper
A&Fbro28 05-19-2009, 08:18 PM Again what muffler is that???
mikey008 05-19-2009, 08:26 PM One of the first mods I did since i first got the car! Plus I tinted the reverse part of the tail light!!
Kayzle 05-19-2009, 08:28 PM I love it, I always admired the cars that came factory with that type of under carriage flat black thing...I would do it to mine but it's already black all over :(
Kayzle 05-19-2009, 08:29 PM One of the first mods I did since i first got the car! Plus I tinted the reverse part of the tail light!!
haha those tailights are the exact opposite of what I would have done, I def would have blacked out everything except for the white reverse part...especailly to go with your under bumper black thing
Just goes to show everyone has there own style!
Clutch34 05-19-2009, 10:50 PM nice mod! i like it! :thmsup:

Yeah I was debating on whether to do what you had in mind, however I thought this look was more clean for a white car. For yourself being that you drive a black Accord, it will look sick!!
Besides...my neighbor tinted the whole tail light and I didn't want my car to look like his!!
eoanou 05-25-2009, 11:01 PM I am really liking that mod (the lower rear bumper), good work!
Arash 07-18-2009, 12:49 AM 1st post updated
Blacked out Roof, front and rear emblems
Kayzle 07-18-2009, 08:18 AM So wait, what did you use to black
out the chrome edge of your grill? Link?
dominicstl 07-18-2009, 08:27 AM I like it :yes: And that is one mighty sun strip you got there, too lol
denniswolf 07-18-2009, 09:16 AM Looks amazing!
Sfalcon2291 07-18-2009, 09:35 AM Your car is sexy IMO. I love the quad exhaust and matt-black pieces. Good job all around.
krn118 07-18-2009, 09:38 AM would look dope if you add a black front lip to that hfp bumper... and debadge ftw. hahah
argus 08-03-2009, 10:15 PM Bro, that's dope!
I'm here in DXB, again, and saw your car in the parking at the Holiday Inn Express..where you at???
tnel2005 08-03-2009, 10:28 PM lose the hfp emblem...too many emblems IMO
Claw02 08-04-2009, 06:57 AM :banana::wave:Keep the HFP emblem looks OK IMO.
Arash 08-18-2009, 11:12 AM Bro, that's dope!

I was staying at the place for a week. Many Accords i saw there. Never crossed my mind that was your car.
listen to remix 08-18-2009, 11:24 AM I actually like the black deck lid spoiler... I kind of wanted to get a black one for my PPM sedan
bruceleroy 08-18-2009, 11:39 AM is his car a V6 or an EX? i think he just stuck on the V6 badge on a i4
Arash 08-18-2009, 11:44 AM is his car a V6 or an EX? i think he just stuck on the V6 badge on a i4
In the Gulf we get two models: 2.4EX & 3.5EX
Dont ask me why its called 3.5EX over here. Its the same EX-L V6 that you guys get there but different grade name.
noslen 08-18-2009, 06:53 PM where does one purchase this "matt black foil?"
joenguyen 08-18-2009, 07:22 PM where can i get some vinyl and what kind to do this kind of job?

GTFan712 08-18-2009, 07:30 PM Yes, the all-important question:
What did you use to black out the emblems and grille? I love it, it's exactly what I'm looking for.

Dude, the plate is Oman but I'm not Omani. I'm Iranian and lived all my life in Dubai. Purchased the car in Oman coz it was the only country in the Gulf selling the car with the HFP body kit at that time.
qwerty0092 08-19-2009, 03:06 PM is that what you used to black out the chrome around the grill and emblems?
and so you just bought that stuff online and took it to your local shop to have it installed?
Thanks.

I didn't buy anything. Everything is done at the shop.
GTFan712 08-19-2009, 10:22 PM I didn't buy anything. Everything is done at the shop.
Is there any way you could ask the shop if they can ship out the foil for us to use over here in the states?
Or does anyone know of any US dealers? From what I can tell they're only in the Middle East and Germany.

cheap_deal 08-19-2009, 11:16 PM foilacar people are quite popular here. some even get the full car foiled. example a black car from factory foiled white. the foil 'supposedly' lasts long and can be removed to expose the stock color under it. quite common here in the UAE but costs a lot.

How much do you think a small piece would cost, just to wrap the front grille, front, and rear emblems. Couldn't be too much.
-GT
Arash 08-19-2009, 11:44 PM The material is pasted exactly the same way tints are done on the car.
Full car wrapping where i did would cost about $700 from what i remember.
At a more professional place like foilacar it would probably be 5 times more as it comes with 5 years warranty.

Something around $100.
qwerty0092 08-20-2009, 05:05 PM so is there a way for us in the u.s. to get a hold of this product or something of similar grade?
kalan yong 08-21-2009, 08:46 AM I would like to know does your matt black have gloss on it?
If you don't mine can I have the color code.
Or if you don't mine I can pay you to send me the sample.
But I live in USA. Help your USA accord friend out. Thank you
Kalan Yong
jdawgest1983 08-22-2009, 09:00 AM I have a TW accord too...What do you think of doing the roof, the bottom of the deck lid, and the lower rear bumper black...i have the HFP kit
