  1. Where’s the Aero?

    I like Mugen's wing but that's about it - the diffuser is for their single butthole exhaust which is... not good looking.
  2. Disable Adaptive sound system on FL5

    Well recommended, I just disconnected it. Takes maybe 30mins total and you don't need to pull the entire upper section out.
  3. Icehawk's "OEM+" speaker upgrade

    Look at the JL boxes, high quality stuff made near me.
  4. Flapfab vs Sukeban rock guards

    Not sure if I'm going to come, I'd have to bring my son and this event isn't as family friendly as others IMO.
  5. Stripped License Plate Bolt Housing

    You are using bolts that aren't designed for those plugs. The Mugen are fine thread, our car requires a coarse thread. I bought several Ti bolts like these which are the correct thread to use...
  6. Stripped License Plate Bolt Housing

    Are you using coarse thread screws? Those should work unless you got all crazy and hogged out the plastic insert thingies, it doesn't look like it. You want self tapping screws size M5x15. If you are using a fine thread/machine screw then yes, those plastic OEM things are easily stripped.
  7. What did you do to your FL5 today?

    I've thought about buying a set or two, they pop up for fairly reasonable prices. I should frame my original ones, they are never going in the car :D
  8. Flapfab vs Sukeban rock guards

    Still got the roll of mesh, are you going to go to the Acura Honda Classic meetup at Sawgrass April 14th? If so I can definitely bring it then, otherwise I'm sure we could figure something out - it's just taking up space in my house :)
  9. What did you do to your FL5 today?

    Still on the original tires? I only got about 12k out of a set on my ND Miata but I gather the R gets more typically. I'm at 6k and wear seems pretty minimal so far.
  10. Real carbon fiber parts-FL5

    As mentioned, seems hit or miss. I have a set of the CCarbon/JSWAN door sill covers and they look good - but they are also a dead simple piece. It seems like for the more complex shape of the center console you need to spend more and go with a higher end vendor.
  11. What did you do to your FL5 today?

    Realized I had posted about this in the wrong thread :D Trey, the codec stuff was in the dev menus. Waze worked perfectly now that I've disabled Honda Nav! I did a 200 mile trip (each way) this weekend and had no issue with the display pixelating. Highly recommend doing this along with...
  12. What did you pay for your FL5?

    Disabled the Honda Nav in preparation for a trip tomorrow where I'd like to run Waze. I noticed in the dev menus that there were ways to force the audio codec, enable additional ones, etc
  13. What did you do to your FL5 today?

    Yeah, I wish I had been a little more patient and got it PERFECT but... no one's looking down there really so it's "all good". I tried Tuxmats but they were just too much for me, too much work to pull out for cleaning and the clutch pedal felt sticky since it would touch it at full press...
  14. What did you do to your FL5 today?

    I bought a thin plate of aluminum and bent & trimmed it to fit.
  15. Name five things you like about the Type R and five things you would change...

    + Brakes Seats Engine power curve Turbo noises (requires open intake) Excellent balance of ride comfort and suspension stiffness - Exhaust sound Proper D shaped wheel Front bumper camera or 360 please More trunk lighting (available in other markets & DE5 has additional too) Manual e-brake
  16. How is your CarPlay experience?

    Yep, Waze problems - hadn't thought of turning off the in-car nav which I don't use... otherwise smooth sailing with wireless iPhone (14 & 15). I do wish I could set it to default to the Now Playing tile.
  17. +R Mode vs Individual with "aggressive" options selected?

    @VLJ well put. I'd also note that the TC systems are pretty darn lenient in this car and, to me, not annoying at all. I can still spin the tires on launch or through a corner, I've only felt power cut twice so far even in the wet. I'm used to slamming that button OFF in my wife's Si because...
  18. +R Mode vs Individual with "aggressive" options selected?

    Unplugging the module takes 30mins tops, most of it is refitting the glovebox. There is zero affect on anything other than your ears. I am at about 3.5k miles with mine disconnected. Highly recommended. Joker or other tuners could verify but I'm 99% sure that the +R engine setting and +R...
  19. FL5 OEM Bass + Subwoofer Speaker Ring Upgrade

    That's not me - I did not use a ring or Kicker driver, I trimmed a Rockford driver's mounting ear down. It sounds like 5% better than stock? Total waste. I think a cheaper driver might do better and certainly would have been less money down the drain.
