  1. Honda Brake System Explained - Video

    The video says to only use genuine Honda brake pads but surely there must be some high quality replacements that would perform better in some respects, no? Isn't there an option that would increase longevity or breaking performance or reduce the noise? Mine are already squealing from time to...
  2. Egged

    Yeah, I'd take it to a good detailer as well. I scratched up the door of my car pretty badly when I tried to wet-sand a deep scratch using a tutorial I found on YouTube (big mistake!) so I then tried compounding and polishing it out with a Meguiar's DA Power Tool but it barely made any...
  3. Trunk lights

    I see, so you keep the existing light housing but run the LED strip wire into the side (after cutting out a notch for the wire) and plug it into the existing light housing where the original bulb would go? If I didn't already have the exLED trunk light, I'd probably go for this option.
  4. What did you do to your Civic today?!

    Glad you were able to finally get your side markers. The car looks sweet! I need to get some new pics of my car as well after installing the new mods but I think I might wait until my trip to Nova Scotia in September and try to get some shots in front of the colourful buildings in Lunenburg...
  5. Trunk lights

    Looks good and really bright. Do you have a link to the Amazon product page? So you just remove the plastic lens for the existing light and this plugs into the existing connector that the old light assembly connects to? I wonder how the brightness compares to the bright exLED bulbs - I'm...
  6. Dashboards can change color?

    It sounds like the OP is also asking if you can change the colours of the driving efficiency lights (not sure what they're officially called - the ones that go green when driving efficiently and white when driving aggressively) and wants to make them turn red instead of white?
  7. Window Tinting Benefits/Brands/Types/What did you pay?

    Now I'm not sure what to think about percentages. I was supposed to have 35% in the front and 20% in the back for my original tint job and I found it really dark but I had it replaced by another company since the original job was botched twice and the new tint is MUCH lighter than the original...
  8. What did you do to your Civic today?!

    Thanks @Civic_Honey627 , I'm glad you like it. Thanks for your feedback, @Troy Jollimore I'm kind of the same way - I like how it matches the chrome on the front but feel like it might be a bit much. I think I've decided to keep it though, especially since it differentiates my car from the...
  9. What did you do to your Civic today?!

    Man, that's some sweet glass - no wonder you were able to get such nice DoF, and the full frame sensor helps too. For my garage shots, I just composited one of my landscape shots in the background so I could get just as much background blur as I wanted but I hope to get some real environmental...
  10. What did you do to your Civic today?!

    Great shot, @fijizzle Good idea going to the beach for the photo shoot. It's tough to find a place to get nice clean reflections like that around here. I had do to a lot of Photoshop to clean up the reflections in my garage photos (which I'll have to take again soon, now that I'm done with...
  11. What did you do to your Civic today?!

    Thanks, fijizzle. Nah, I think I'm done with the cosmetic mods for now (though I may still go for the stainless sport pedals). I just added my chrome tail light accents the other day so I think that will do for now - and I'll probably remove the reflective tape on the rear bumper since the...
  12. What did you do to your Civic today?!

    Thanks, @Dretlaw I haven't noticed any issues with heat buildup but I don't have any way of testing this. According to the manufacturers, since the covers are made of aluminum they actually *reduce* brake heat by acting as a heatsink, in addition to protecting the rims from excess brake dust...
  13. What did you do to your Civic today?!

    Here's the side profile with the new clear side markers: I'm not sure if I'm happy with my new tint though. I was supposed to get 35% on front and 20% in the back but it's MUCH lighter than the 35/20 tinting I had before. You could hardly see anything in the rear windows on a sunny day but...
  14. What did you do to your Civic today?!

    Sure, I'll try to get one tomorrow morning. I just had my tinting redone this afternoon, so hopefully the windows look a bit better after the tinting has set a bit.
  15. ASEAN / JDM Clear Side Markers now available on Ebay!

    Is there anyone in the Milton/Mississauga area that wants a set of these? I ended up getting my first set in the mail 2 months later (2 days after my replacement shipment arrived). I'd rather just pay for the second one and sell it locally at the regular price rather than have it shipped all...
  16. What did you do to your Civic today?!

    Ha ha, I just bought them to make my car look cleaner - I didn't know they came with a membership to the badass brotherhood too. Sweet! ;)
  17. ASEAN / JDM Clear Side Markers now available on Ebay!

    After waiting almost 2 months, I finally got my clear side markers today (first shipment didn't arrive after 40 days so they shipped a second one and it got here in less than 2 weeks). I had some trouble installing one of them since the light housing didn't want to fit into place after I had...
  18. What did you do to your Civic today?!

    After almost 2 months of waiting, I finally got my clear side markers installed (first shipment didn't arrive after 40 days but the replacement shipment took just under 2 weeks). I love how they seem to catch the light and look like they're glowing, even when the lights aren't on (I installed...
  19. Touring subwoofer rattles.

    Too bad you weren't a bit closer - I have some extra vibration absorbing rubber bumpers that work amazingly well and they're fairly easy to install: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0084EKSNI/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Just need to slide them in between the middle brake light...
  20. Fishbowling? Thoughts on Mods to keep your Civic different?

    Wow, that looks wild. I bet you turn a lot of heads as you go by in that green beast. :) I really like the spoilers on the coupes. I wish I was able to get one on my Touring but it already has the non-removable lip spoiler.
