What did you do to your FL5 today?

[jtlctr]

as promised. Finally made it back to Florida and a quick run through a touchless wash.

Exterior wise I don’t expect any other aesthetic mods aside from the project Aero front lip. Will however buy some creature comfort mods from mikstore like the power folding mirrors, maybe do the parking sensors, and any other non usdm OEM mods. Engine wise I already have the PRL HVI, will be ordering the RV6 down pipe, PRL Intercooler just to name a few. It’s a daily so I really just want the best of both worlds. Honda already did a great job stock. So really any upgrades would be minimal.

Man those wheels look great! How much did the powder coating cost, if you don't mind my asking?

Thank you, it’s going to be hard not to modify this thing, I’m really trying. Honestly for the FL5 IMO the Boost Blue and believe it or not the Black one does it for me.

Sapphire black is nice but although smaller than a black truck I had . I’ll never own black again on anything lol. I know what you mean about mods I also said I’m keeping it stock and only put a OEM Pus CF wing on about a year ago when I first got the car. Then I got weak recently lol with a PRL Stage 1 and Throwback strut tower brace, Remark 3” Downpipe back exhaust and some bling in the motor compartment. Just hope it’s not the beginning of that ever so deep rabbit hole

Stop being a scared. Go FBO get some coilovers then get tuned by jester. In truth that's probably the best pure driving experience.
In less you are just planning to hard park at cars and coffee.......

Maybe you can influence me with your mod list on your FL5 next time we’re both parked at cars and coffee ?

I'd never want anyone to follow me off the deep end.

My CBR 1000rr was my FL5 mod list
We could ride together to and it would be just like you were parked

Installed my 3M Windo-weld injected OEM RMM.

Here is a link with more details.

Thanks to driving over a nail, I also had to pull and plug one tire.

So took the FL5 for a test run to the coast with the new PRL strut bar stabilizer about a mile and a half
But actually ended up going for a longer drive as I kept going as always that’s what this car does to you and you never want to get out lol. Anyway I noticed it to be considerably stiffer but I like it. Could not really tell in the turns until I head up to Ortega highway next week. Very happy with the results
So this is pretty funny I was at a light getting ready to make a left near the pier and I hear this guy yelling so I turn down my radio and I hear this scream Hey! Hey man !!! I know that car!!!! I thought oh shit is this @Tougefl5 calling me out ? Then he yells that’s a Type R that’s a Type R lol. These cars are still noticed to the right eye even after a couple years . These cars are special. Well here it is striking a pose since cars and coffee was over. Sorry to disappoint you @Tougefl5
