IMHO, it looks bad.

The rest of the car is streamlined and now you have all these openings below the bumper. Looks like a Manta ray getting ready to feed.
I'd be worried about driveways and speed bumps, also.
As long as you like it is what matters.

99% of the cars with rims are ugly to me. They lower the car and add some random rims and thinks it looks cool. More power to them.

I like the oem customized setups the best.

I agreee with the manta ray mouth comment...but it's your car. If you had to do substantial work to get it to fit (I know nothing about Accord body kits because I don't llike them) then I commend you on your effort. Just not my cup of tea though...I prefer just the lip kits.

From what I've noticed people on DA tend to be more for the OEM style look and people on V6P are more into modding the car. You might find some better responses over there.

Personally, I think it looks alright. You just need some mesh in those holes on the bumper.

Seriously I want to know how you even got that thing on there. I bought the same front bumper off of andysautosport.com and it was the worst thing i've ever spent money on in my life.. literally the bumper was too big in some places(Giant gap under headlights) too small in others.. attachment points had not enough material to actually put a screw through.. not to mention the bottom... the bottom literally ended 2 inches lower than stock and had a 2 foot gap between the end of the bumper and anything to attach it to... How did you get that on there? and then not to mention the product came with dings and dents.. and rips and tears which could have later caused more damage. How much did that cost installed? and what custom work was needed?

Did you even look at the pic? The gaps are awful, especially under the headlight...not even close to being even from the front to rear of the light...
