Ok, this is a really big improvement. Back is very nice, though I’d be minded to connect the badge with either the top or middle strip of chrome.
With regards to the front, drop the triple grille design. It almost never works on any car. To fix this, I’d seriously thin on the bottom grille, or try and combine the top and middle ones together. Headlights ought to be a bit smaller too for a 2017/18 car.
There’s a difference between plain and nice, though some of it depends on opinion and sometimes it’s subtle. No matter how complex though, a good rule to follow is: can the eye easily follow a line and can it immediately pick out what is important to be seen? If the answer to both is yes, chances are it’ll look good.
@Dorifto_Dorito i thought there was always something that had to look diffrent on each trim. The sx-e has a v6 and cant be a base cause its a small suv and i thought the base needs a i4 but thanks!
Edit: so the sx-e is the best looking one?
Edit2: What can be better on the LX Trim
The whole double lower grille assembly is still looking a bit clunky due to the conflicting ‘lines’ that it generates, but it is getting better, yes. Try playing around with ideas to see how you can make multiple fixtures fit into a bigger overall shape so that the shapes don’t conflict.
The difference between trims in mass produced cars is often very subtle or even non-existent. It can even be simply the difference in material of certain bits or the addition of a lip, rarely the change of an entire bumper assembly as that would be costly. Consider the new Civic lineup, has a good 7 trims (VTi, VTi-S, VTi-L, RS, LX, Si, Type R) and the only one that looks seriously different would be the Type R, because it has a whole bunch of functional aerodynamics on it.
I’m speaking generally, but when it comes to the double lower grille stuff, the DX and the SX-E do this more. The double grille thing on the LX-E economy flows but doesn’t have pleasant proportions (probably a bit too narrow, at least, in my opinion).
You appear to misunderstand me. The SX-E is not the best. It is in fact the worst looking out of the three you have. The LX-E is the best looking of all the three. Just slightly make the headlights slimmer and it should be fine.
the rear is honestly not bad. For the lower half you should look at how others do their designs for some ideas (you don’t have to outright copy them, but modern sports cars tend to have some degree of diffuser in their bodywork).
