Sorry it took so long, I never ended up getting an accord v6 of your generation on a lift, but did find a car very similar, a 1999-2003 Acura TL. I'm not working there right now because i'm at school, so I can't get any more pictures right now. I wish I took pictures of the more popular eco cars like the prius, leaf, and earlier civics. From memory, the second-gen prius really doesn't look like they tried to make it aero underneath or in the grille/radiator area.

The major difference between the rear of my v6 and your v6 is that the Y pipe where it splits to the dual exhausts points out/down in your car. I believe the 6th gen V6 accord like yours sticks down even more than this TL does.
