Jonnys_honda Civic Type R FK8 Build

More rolling shots over the weekend!

Car went to Eibach today, super excited about that. My buddy DJ rode with me in his STi.

In the second pic above, it looks like the CTR wing is bigger than the STI...

It's very close.

One thing we noticed was the size difference of the cars overall. The R is lower and wider to the eye. More aggressive in stance.

STi roofline is higher up.

CTR's tire footprint looks wider too.

I have a WRB 2017 STi and plan to buy a CW Type R in a couple years when the hoopla dies down

Nice picture! Have you talked to Siebon yet about a CF hood without the hood scoop?

I have their FK7 hatchback hood with scoop but it doesn't fit any Type R models unfortunately, the hood latch placement is different!

Seibon bought their own Type R so I'm sure they'll have a hood available soon.

Password JDM carbon fiber. Fuse box cover and strut covers.

More parts are still being developed.
I'll share when they are done, about 3 -4 weeks out.

I have more shots coming from this weekend.
