Just to be clear, for this to work you end up with the fuse out entirely right? I got it to the open stage, now I just pull the fuse and it stays open for-ev-ver? Edit: this is what I did and it seems good to go, just want to make sure I keep the fuse out. Edit 2: I should have planned this...

My dealer had to take off the a pilar and said these clips always need to be replaced.

I know, it seems weird, but pretty awesome for a guy who can afford anything to have an appreciation for this car. CTR ftw

I actually got a compliment on the stock sound the other day while cruising through a parking lot I got a nice but subtle gurgle. I’d definitely like a bit more sound just for drivings sake but I don’t mind it as-is.

Never liked this guy a whole lot, but think I’m coming around… https://www.roadandtrack.com/news/a43427674/john-cena-honda-civic-type-r-daily-driver/

I think people are saying tacked on because they’re more like what you’d find in the aftermarket rather than a bespoke set of front and rear fenders found only on the FL5 within the Civic lineup. Based on what the wrapped prototype looked like it seems they will be, for lack of a better term...

Sure?

It may be, but it doesn’t seem nearly that simple. I’m figuring they used the same setups as the other 22-23 models so took this video as a bit of background on them. Doesn’t seem like a simple nor easy swap so may wait till I install a new rear view before I start pulling shit apart. Start...

I threw a red one in for fun. I actually want to swap the dome and map lights to red but can’t really determine what type of bulb they use.

This is the way.

You also gotta get the center caps whited out with the red logo would look ?

Those babies look like fine china. I like it but the white makes it look like it needs a beefier tire or a drop.

I’ve been doing some decent pulls since 1k miles (about 2k now) and don’t think I’ve gone over 6k RPM. It feels so fast on the streets.

Much better off just getting the Sport Touring 6 speed. Or, go get an Integra…

FL5 ftw

This is great, I definitely plan to complete this mod. What was the cost?

You go to WIlde Honda? When I lived in IL I bought from them and had a great experience and heard they continued to be an MSRP dealer even through the pandemic. I think the key to MSRP is stay away from the most densely populated areas and try to actively build a relationship with the dealer...

I like it as an option. If it is possible to have it be driver controlled (closed, open, or OEM) that would be even better. Since nobody really knows what opens it or closes it (drive mode, wot, or just higher revs) maybe that understanding would help first.

I had similar issues with CarPlay in my 16 Accord and 22 Si, I don’t think it’s a 23 FL5 problem unfortunately. I’ve even seen it 2-3 times in the FL5 but not nearly as consistent. Try getting a fresh OEM cable for your phone and run it wired and see if it’s better. Then go back to wireless...

Keep us posted, the setup sounds tasty!
