What did you do to your FL5 today?

[maxhazards]

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.

These are great. I love them. Had them since they did the initial pre-order. Highly recommend them, they also included a full tool kit for install as well.

Installed some OEM Honda illuminated door sills, look great!

Installed a red-black carbon fiber GT-replica spoiler. It's 1.5 lbs lighter than the OE wing, but it certainly feels much less so while carrying it around. The style is growing on me. It's much less red in person than in the photos.

The installation was slightly annoying, given the horizontal spring load on the struts and the carbon wing's lack of precise hole alignment, which was also recessed somewhat—a typical issue with replica/carbon fiber components. I had the Fast Turn Fitting titanium bolt kit (supplied by TwoStepPerformance), but those weren't long enough to fasten the new wing (they're shorter than the factory bolts). I had to order custom longer bolts directly to replace the ones that came with the wing.

The performance and feel are wildly different. The OE wing feels like it plants hard when you hit about 88mph, entering what I describe as a "slipstream". In contrast, this one feels planted as low as 40mph and remains smooth up the entire speedometer. The ride feels softer, but more controlled. Feeling like you have even more control while being more comfortable is wild.

Excuse the dirty ass - daily driver. 10,000 miles after 1 year, 1 month, and 1 day of ownership.

Looks really good ! I love my OEM + CF wing . First thing I bought when I got the car. At first I thought 2000 was a little spendy but I’m very happy with it and glad I bought it.

The shaft that holds your shift knob ....... is that from Hybrid racing? It looks taller for some reason .........

Yes that is from Hybrid racing, they sell 3 different sizes of shift rods. The shifter comes with the shortest one for the FL5's as per Hybrid racing. I ended up buying the other 2 and stayed using the longest one. I prefer a very tall shifter.

They are pretty cheap on the site, like 20 bucks each.

Thanks for the heads up on the shift rods, I did not know they made 3 different sizes .........

Finally did a mod that the car should've come with from factory, for the USDM cars at least. I've had this mod sitting my car for almost a year.

Got the kit from Redline mods for a killer deal.

That’s a much better price than the mikstore version. Just comes down to whether you want the interior button or not, I guess

 

[AspecR]

It comes with the interior button

Even better! I somehow didn’t see it listed

Does this version also enable the menu like the picture below?

It does not, but for the price I paid I dont mind, it functions exactly how I want it to out the box so not having the menu option makes no difference to me

I agree and would feel the same way
Very cool option/mod as is.
