How difficult is it to remove the stock enclosures? Do they just unbolt, or is there cutting involved? Happen to have any specs/drawings on the replacement box?
I took my Civic Type-R to the dealer (reluctantly) to perform a fuel pump recall and I kinda know the service advisors so made sure they had a master tech doing the job. Actually got to speak with the tech beforehand, and as respectfully as possibly mentioned that I read posts from other Honda...
Those pics are not mine, but it looks pretty much identical. I'll try to get some pics when I get a chance, but I feel like the pics don't really convey how much more storage area it provides. The only thing I think it needs is some dividers to allow more smaller pockets, but that should be...
Yeah I got lucky and saw someone post about an upcoming batch on Facebook so was able to get my order in. Definitely worth the wait, as they look much better than factory imo. Also, I posted pics of the rear emblem as well here...
I bit the bullet and ordered one of these after finding them for $80 on Amazon. I figured I'd give it a shot and would just send it back if it wasn't perfect. Initially I was disappointed to find that the part that fits in the factory cubby was just a pocket and they supplied two chunks of...
It took some waiting, as they aren't always available. Looks like there are a few limited colors still in stock.

My buddy with a Type R stopped over to check out the Supra. It was interesting to compare the two colors. They definitely look very similar in person, though I think the pearl in refraction blue is a little more noticable than in the boost blue, with RB being a little lighter shade in direct...
Got the front emblem done today. I was kinda on the fence about these initially, and hesitant to pull off the factory badges, but after getting them finished I have no regrets. Looks so much better.
Got the downpipe reinstalled and exhaust remounted to fix some rattling issues, but forgot to take any pics unfortunately. Then finally had some nice weather so had my detailer clean it up and take some pics.
Just adds a thermal barrier to help with engine bay temps and keeps exhaust hotter which helps flow. Will it make any noticible difference, no idea. But it doesn't hurt and looks cool. ?
Probably right around 1k so far, with several items being tools/maintenance items for the new-to-me platform.
I also bought a slightly modified car with probably 10k worth of aftermarket stuff already installed (PPF, ceramic, DP, Fi Exhaust, wheels, FF kit, Ecutek + tune, springs) Trying to...
You probably do! I bought the car with the aftermarket downpipe. Had to fix an exhaust rattle so pulled it off to get coated while it was up on the lift. Figured it wouldn't hurt and I'm glad I pulled it, because I discovered the previous owner didn't have a gasket on it ?‍♂️
