What did you do to your FL5 today?

...Possibly one of the few mods I’ve done with almost immediate impact...

Those mods are the best. Love the reward of a well curated mod, congrats on that and thanks for sharing!

ITS Red stitch perforated wheel and matching ITS shift knob/collar combo

I was literally just wondering what this combo would look like on the FL5. If you don’t mind me asking where’d you source the parts?

Indeed, I had wondered for months until I pulled the trigger. The looks are spot on, and the feeling to me is superb. The perforated surfaces and slightly smaller knob sizing are a home run.

Parts were found on ebay. Wheel was a dealer takeoff, delivered in the accessory wheel box. knob/nut/collar was upgraded to PRL items, as evidenced by the packaging they were sent in. There were a few wheels on the integra forum, but I hadn't heard back about them before finding these.

Do note though, the ITS retaining nut tranisitions from the narrow knob base to the wider shift boot collar. So, it gives that groove/depression that the OEM and accessory FL5 knobs have

Added WOT hood prop rods, it’s something I do to all my cars for convenience.

Ordered Dixcel Z pads, at 13k miles I need new pads and tires on all four corners (also 1 track day). A set of OEM tires will go on as well.

Nothing to brag about, but I always found this to be the first milestone to any new car.

Her first filter and Oil change @ 4200mi, or 5mon. I went with Liquid Molly green bottle 0w20 & OEM filter

Do you have a picture of how the hoses go? I can find any online TIA

Sorry for taking so long, but here are a few pictures i took yesterday on how the hose’s are routed.

If anyone else is interested in these. I went ahead and just ordered the MEGACHIPUSA rock guard for our car. I’ve been searching for a while now, for some sleek and not overwhelmingly obnoxious looking rock guards. I think these guys hit the nail on the head. I am in no way endorsed by them, i’m just sharing my findings if anyone wants to grab a set. Here is what they look like and they retain factory screw locations. Super plus for me. And the rear are slightly adjustable for a wider or narrower look.

@SpoolinFK8 those look really good with the perfect amount of protection.

I have the megachip guards. They’re good for the stated reasons, also they’re soft thick rubber so I think they’ll absorb rock strikes well and not get brittle in the cold. They’re not cheap but I believe the design is ideal.

Those rock guards look like a solid option for those using wider rim and tire options

Your Vossen wheels look great ..........

Solid option. I have the same and I'm very happy with them.

These have been on my radar, but I can't justify that cost when other applications include actual mudflaps with metal brackets, which I don't think look well on anything other than subies.

That’s good to hear, thanks for your feedback, was wondering if they were plastic or flexible.
