  1. What did you do to your FL5 today?

    I used some fabric, cut to length, on both sides of the mats to prevent any marks left in the carpet. The maxpider mats use very rigid plastic for some reason, so I was afraid of carpet damage like you. Also, I have removed my mats for cleaning at least 10 times by now and never saw even a...
  2. FL5 Owners Manuals from various markets

    I have a USDM R so no smart card key unfortunately :( the only place to buy them is from ebay, but these are not the R-specific ones. The red badge smart card keys are part number 72190-T60-Z11 and currently not for sale anywhere online...
  3. FL5 Owners Manuals from various markets

    UK, Thailand, Switzerland, Japan, US. One of these is not like the others
  4. Official BOOST BLUE FL5 Type R Photos Thread

    Your USDM FL5 should have factory clear glass on all of the windows unless there's dealer-installed tint on them. Just ask whoever will be doing the work to remove the dealer tint that's currently on before applying the ceramic tint and you should have a matching shade all around
  5. Missing screw on the engine?

    Semi related to OP but I was also noticing a slight burning smell after driving and thought it was from user error, but thanks for letting us know that it's part of normal break in inb4 skill issue
  6. Window film for UV and rock chip protection

    Interested in windshield protection. Supposedly "ultrafit nano-ceramic" is a very DIY-friendly windshield film that's not total amazon-tier garbage. Unfortunately their website won't even show their prices without making an account on there, so was wondering if anyone has experience with this...
  7. CTR engine build location

    The window sticker doesn't have "major sources of foreign parts content: Japan 15%" in the parts content information, which means this car was an early 2023 model year car (also because of the lower MSRP). Referencing other early 2023 model year FL5 window stickers, this is just how they were...
  8. Waiting for fresh VIN, or purchasing an in-stock model

    Depends what you're looking for. If you just want an FL5 now and don't care about price or anything else, you'd be fine getting one that's already here. But like others have said, waiting often has its benefits. Getting one right off the truck means it won't have the front bumper drilled...
  9. MY 2024 Civic Type R FL5 Shipments from Japan

    roastduck doing the Lords work in this thread
  10. ***CAR IS SOLD*** 2023 Civic Type R – Full Body PPF & Clear Tint – 254 miles - $50,750

    None taken. Unfortunately, no craziness for me today. My dealer just texted me they sold their blue FL5 this afternoon. Thread will be down shortly
  11. ***CAR IS SOLD*** 2023 Civic Type R – Full Body PPF & Clear Tint – 254 miles - $50,750

    Update: This thread will be up for a limited time before I ask for it to be deleted. There's a specific MY24 FL5 I'm looking at, but if it sells, I'll just keep this one for a while
  12. ***CAR IS SOLD*** 2023 Civic Type R – Full Body PPF & Clear Tint – 254 miles - $50,750

    My out of state dealer said they would do the same thing as yours. Tells you how much their word is worth if you can't be there in person. And as much as I would like buy local, all the dealerships around me said that they can't omit the PDI for any car, including throwing away plastics and the...
  13. ***CAR IS SOLD*** 2023 Civic Type R – Full Body PPF & Clear Tint – 254 miles - $50,750

    I messaged Honda Japan customer support in Japanese asking them about my build sheet. I guess the guy slipped up or something when he gave me my build day, because the second message after that they gave me was that the sheet is "internal information" that they don't share with customers. You...
  14. ***CAR IS SOLD*** 2023 Civic Type R – Full Body PPF & Clear Tint – 254 miles - $50,750

    If I'm keeping an FL5 long term I want all of its documents. Just seems like a cool thing to have
  15. ***CAR IS SOLD*** 2023 Civic Type R – Full Body PPF & Clear Tint – 254 miles - $50,750

    Had full body PPF and clear tint put on all windows except the windshield with the plan to keep this long term. There is still a loan on the car through my local credit union. Car is located in Costa Mesa, California. Reason for selling is the dealership lied about keeping the build sheet (they...
  16. Need help getting build sheet

    Very cool. I might be trading for the final model year FL5 when that releases, so I guess I'll just have to babysit the truck as it pulls into the dealer lot lmao
  17. Need help getting build sheet

    A legit physical copy would be nice but I only asked for a scan or PDF. Honda Japan said they do have it on file but that they can't just give it out. I guess I got lucky to at least find out my manufacturing date. Also my dealer ghosted me when I asked them about this lol
  18. Need help getting build sheet

    Luckily still have the window sticker and PDI checklist ? but the build sheet is its own thing, which looks like the image attachment. This is from another member on here, who said that every FL5 comes here with the sheet in the car from Japan
  19. Need help getting build sheet

    Not the monroney/window sticker, the build sheet from the Yorii-Machi plant in Japan. Here is a pic of what it looks like from another member on here. Supposedly, all FL5s are sent here with this paper somewhere in the car
  20. Need help getting build sheet

    The dealer I bought my FL5 from did not listen to me and did their pre-delivery inspection, which for some reason includes throwing out the build sheet. I messaged Honda Japan customer support, and they were kind to give me some info from my build sheet, but said that the sheet itself is...
