Those look pretty awesome!
Ok soooo here are some pictures I managed to take with my cell phone during install.

Someone want to suggest a way to take a picture of them at night? Smile

Let's see if I can explain all this right from memory...
The middle light is dim and that's what my plain running light is.
Click it up a notch and both halos glow.
Both clicks and the halos and bulb on the right are on.
Of course, middle light fully on is brights.
Blinkers are the amber and the 5 LEDs up top.
I think all that makes sense.

Looks amazing... but I think I'm biased. Wink

I'm also trying out some bright white LEDs in my reverse lights. Holy balls, can those light up or what.
I'm definitely thinking of some HIDs with a switch for my reverse lights. I'm in the business of blinding people.

SIMPLIFIED
basically. u mean. middle is daytime running light,
parking lights it both halos glow
headlights is both halos(parking lights) and the right bulb
middle brightens for brights
the left amber is your turn signals. and i believe the 5 leds run all the time with your headlights if im correct.

one of my favorite sets for your car. nice and aggresive
http://www.tenzoracingsports.com/content/wheels/iframe.php?image=dc5.version1_black&group=dc5.version1

check out tenzo r wheels.... so nice. personally id do gunmetal or black with chrome lip. or u can do all silver.
http://www.tenzoracingsports.com/

also check out
http://www.tsw.com/

lots of nice ones there too. including the acura rims?

hope that cleared things up. most will agree you want a nice offset, with a decent sized lip. u can go with a less aggresive style like i did and figure out the hard way u want something more aggresive later.

.

The 5 LEDS are hooked up to my turn signal so they're only on then. I happened to take the picture with my hazards on, while flashing. haha

That link I quoted is definitely an amazing set of rims. It's somewhat similar to what is on mine now with the spoke layout and I really do love it. Thanks for the great find! Smile
I think I'm just picky about spokes. I'm not a fan of the gigantic plain 5 spoke rims in black because they just look so bare, and anything with 235280 spokes often looks too busy and is a pain to keep clean.

Now... onto black housed tails and... well, not sure what else I can come up with.
You guys are amazing Smile Thanks for all the ideas!

Maybe. I'd rather not have tinted lights, though. Might try a 2-coat process to see how I feel about it.

You should black house the tail lights, but not night shade them. Way cleaner look imo

2 coats of nightmare looks clean as long sas you don't let it run. I think 1 coat amber colored would look better

That's what I'm thinking... I'd like to keep my lights uniform.

Does anyones window squeak when you lower it? I had the issue in my old car, too. I think I might try some silicone spray later this week. I just need to find something that dries nicely and not too greasy. I don't see that messing up my tint, do you?

smoked tails are dumb and extremely played out (no offense josh Evil or Very Mad)

blackhouse ftw

no, my window doesn't squeak, but it's common on 5th gens that they move really sluggish.

The squeaking just happens every once in awhile. Not that big of a deal... just a small annoyance.

What do you think about something similar to these?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=200620784586&viewitem=&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWAX%3AIT

I think they look pretty basic and they're still the LEDs which I like.
I wish I could find a picture of them installed and lit...

I dont think those tails would look good.. But check this thread out for very great inspiration.. 261 pages of goodness.. All 7th Gen Sedan pics.. Will give you lots of great ideas for your accord

http://www.v6performance.net/forums/7th-generation-honda-accord-2003-2007/72380-official-7th-gen-sedan-picture-thread.html
