What did you do to your CivicXI today??

[sgtmorph]

Does anyone else torture themselves and refresh this page too often when waiting for mods?

(ps: I can’t wait for this one to arrive)

Replaced my red emblem + upper grill black molding...(like the look it gives it with the little red we see under,looks like a red pin stripe)

Got my Ktuner and PRL bits today. Installed minutes later
Ktuner gonna have to wait tho

@PRL Motorsports the fit & finish on these are beautiful! Kudos to the team. Install was obv a breeze

As both a service tech, and a consumer, I would make one small suggestion. The oil cap does not include a rubber o-ring as stated on the website. For me this was a non-issue since my car is only 4 months old, and I‘ve replaced countless of them at the shop. So mine took 15 seconds. Other people however, maybe they’ve never done that, or maybe their car has 3,4,5 years on that oil cap.

I would say maybe add a little card in the packaging, or on the site (prob cheaper lol) that they should use care when removing this rubber ring, since prying on them with metal “could” cause damage when trying to remove it from the oem cap. Then once successfully removed, gently inspect for cracks, and replace as needed.

Otherwise, doesn’t matter which cap they use, they could start getting oily-sprinkles under their pretty engine bay.

Team, keep up the great work!
Looking forward to the new HVI, and some other stuff on the site!

Got my Civic the other day. Installed my door visors, mud guards, door sil protector (Used a film, going to rip it out for either proper vinyl or the hard carbon fiber ones), dash cam, lighting in the door and under the dash, and last night I tinted my lights (Hexagon Dark Vivid Vinyl, made 2 mistakes overall, but looks great).

Yes, I'm aware I have the black Sport badge but chrome H and Civic, that was a mistake on the dealer's part (I asked for the H and Civic parts which were $105, they charge $106 to install the Sport, and hence the mix up). H and Civic badges on the way so that'll be fixed soon enough. Next is Ceramic tint at 30% (Already have it, just need to install it) and some stealth forged carbon vinyl to replace that piano black interior accent on my dash.

How does the ktuner feel? Do you notice an improvement in power, smoothness, etc?

could you post link for interior lighting?

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08M5L1K8C/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o07_s04?ie=UTF8&psc=1

This is the lighting kit I used, you can't easily run wiring through the channel in the door, it uses a wiring harness coupling into the door, so I ran just enough slack to be able to open the door. 4x LED and 5x Fiber (LED, its what you're seeing on my door). Its RGB and app controlled on your phone. Uses the 12v lighter socket (Has power button on it), wish it was easier to hardwire, but I like being able to turn it off with a button. I'll have to get a cleaner picture of the setup since everything is now managed and mounted.

Havent used it bc my ECU is not supported by Ktuner yet. It will be added at some point in the future, so for now, I'm just hangin.

For anyone's reference, the alternator in the 2022 Civic Hatch 2.0L should be 130 amp, at least that's what the dealership says it should be (Funny enough, they can't look up this spec for some reason, but its safe to say based on previous model and replacement parts). I'd say take this with a grain of salt and do your own research, but I know an upgraded stereo is in my future for sure, and this is necessary to know.

Got mine last Saturday after work. Still getting comfortable but main thing I carried over from my EM1 a couple years ago is this blue Broadway Mirror. I am also hoping to see if these 17" wheels from my TSX clear the front calipers today.

Edit: my tech wasn't in today so I will have to wait for the wheels possibly tomorrow and still waiting on my warranty tired to come in.

 

[StockySedan91]

Ok so back with pics.

Unless you have it lowered, the 17s looked way too small, I will throw them on my wife's car meanwhile. A bit anti-climatic but gives me an excuse to buy some other wheels in the future.

After I installed my blue PRL bits, I decided I no longer like the boring black Honda cover. So after seeing this, I start digging. The K20C1 and K20C2 confirmed have the same OEM part number for the black plastic valve cover. Then the CTR obv gets the red “garnish” with the 4 bolts on top….and the C2 gets the boring black nonsense that’s now sitting in my toolbox. So if you wanna go spend $600 on a Yellow “Spoon” valve cover, go for it!
Or if you just wanna throw a Red garnish cover from a CTR, that’s 4 bolts and 30 seconds. You have some options 2.0 folks!

I got something more fun planned…
Stay tuned!

I washed the car and waxed it by hand, and replaced the trunk dome light with an LED bulb that’s a whole lot brighter. Night and day difference, it’s crazy.

Did the same thing yesterday, plus the reverse and turn signals. World of a difference.

I have such a long list of shit still yet to buy.
