  1. Fender vent mesh?

    None thus far. I also removed any pointed edges along that side and sanded them smooth just in case.
  2. Type R Thefts

    Sorry it happened and hope insurance came through! I heard about a Gallardo in your area having its cats stolen. Apparently used a diamond blade sawzall to slice through the overhead air box, etc. and had both converters out in minutes.
  3. FL5 Spare Tire ?

    I've researched the FL5 spare conundrum as best I can and found the following. ? The supplied sealant has an expiration date, is reportedly messy, and the pump is puny. ? My CTR came without a jack or lug wrench. :) Kits for older Acura RLs reportedly fit the 2023 CTR. :) Kits for the...
  4. Type R Thefts

    I don't think car theft is as great a concern given the CTR's relative rarity. To most people, it's just another Civic. Those who may know about its inherent value are likely to be interested in a thrill ride and trashing it. Fortunately, most of those aren't skilled at boosting a car nor (as...
  5. Engine bay side covers

    Wondering if they will possibly contribute to over heating by restricting air flow around the engine bay???? Wouldn't think so, but living in a hot & humid state, especially as summer approaches, makes me want to wait on these.
  6. Sunglass holder! Why doesn’t the R have it…

  7. Splash Guards for FL5?

    Well done! Kudos also to "vbb" from Australia for the initial post on this clever mod.
  8. Wheel & Tire Insurance

    Was the policy through your car dealership or an independent insurance agent? I hit a dead deer in the road coming around a bend at night against opposing traffic doing 45 mph. Shattered the front lower fascia as I tried straddle it in my S2000. Probably should have tried to drive over it with...
  9. Wheel & Tire Insurance

    And the cost of insurance is less than that to replace a wheel and tire.
  10. FL5 Anti-Theft Nuts

    Not to hijack a very useful thread, but I think a greater threat these days is for catalytic converters. Some are recommending etching the VIN into them or some other identifying information. A recent vid from a street cam showed one being quickly taken from a Lambo parked on the street.
  11. Recall: 2023 Civic Type R (FL5) Driver's Seat Cushion Frame Stop Sale (TSB Service Bulletin 23-030)

    Mine (#128) has been recalled too. Dealer says it has to wait for Honda to deliver the parts, which is unknown at present. Bummer!
  12. Recall: 2023 Civic Type R (FL5) Driver's Seat Cushion Frame Stop Sale (TSB Service Bulletin 23-030)

    Mine hasn’t been repaired. I tried to capture in one photo the cross bar weld as well as the anchor bolt. Judging from previous posts (descriptive, audio, and/or video), it seems the squeaking most often occurs during lateral (side-to-side) changes in load. If so, the cross bar’s tension should...
  13. Fender vent mesh?

    Very nice!!! Please share some “how to” instructions and part number from Amazon.
  14. Recall: 2023 Civic Type R (FL5) Driver's Seat Cushion Frame Stop Sale (TSB Service Bulletin 23-030)

    Today’s quick response from the Service Manager at my dealership following an inquiry about the driver’s seat. “According to our Honda Vin Inquiry System your Vehicle may be subject to a recall affecting the driver’s seat cushion frame. It’s for squeaking, rattling or breakage of the seat...
