  1. Downpipe struggles... Is this a CTR front pipe?!?!

    Finally attempted to install my PRL downpipe on my 1.5 civic hatch. The car's previous owner lost the splash shield so the connection between the downpipe and front pipe was totally gone due to rust. My solution was to purchase a new front pipe and cut the old one. Well, everything was...
  2. Bought a 2nd Sport Hatch (SGP beauty!)

    First off, why do I have 2 civic hatch sports? We needed a third vehicle and after a a very exhaustive search, I couldn't find any car that I liked better than my hatch (except for a Type R that I almost bought, and this 2019 Sport Hatch of course). I checked out dozens and dozens of used cars...
  3. Good-bye shiny steering wheel

    I wish I would've taken before pictures. My 3yr old steering wheel was as shiny as it gets. When I sit in new cars, I'm jealous of the nice new matte leather. I researched leather conditioners, leather cleaners, and even the much-maligned magic eraser method. Instead of spending more money...
  4. Dealerships are ghost towns.... :-/

    Shopping for Odysseys and Siennas here in Ohio. Both models are being purchased before they even get off the truck. Been to a lot of dealers lately. As for Civics, some dealers I visited won't get any more new 2022 Civics until all their 21's are gone. Odysseys are being marked up $1,500...
  5. HFP style front lip on a Sport Hatch (ebay style)

    Got this several months back (from China...took ~1 month) and as my Midwestern brethren can attest, the weather finally broke here allowing me to install it. Woot. It's pretty much as advertised from the ebay listing. BTW, that red civic is sharp, eh? Kinda makes me wonder if I got the...
  6. DIY Muffler delete for under $100

    I have a Sport Hatch 2018. I couldn't find a muffler shop in my town willing to delete my mufflers for a reasonable price. All of them wanted over $250, so I said screw it, I'll cut my own mufflers off. How hard can it be? The answer, so far, is not hard at all! To make cutting easier one...
  7. Type S grill badge: Nice or rice?

    Just installed this tonight. I wanted some red on the front of my car and wanted to avoid the Red H badge and red pinstriping. So next best thing, at least in my mind, is a Type S badge. S for Sport Hatch. Yay or nay? Before (kinda plain)... After...
  8. 2021 Veloster N

    https://www.autoblog.com/amp/2020/07/29/2021-hyundai-veloster-n-automatic/ Adding a DCT option, Standard performance pack, lightweight seats with glowing N logo, and adding the drivers assistance package standard as well. I can guess MSRP will go up a few grand. Pricing announced in...
  9. Converting Stock Sport wheels to the Si look.

    My car is silver and I've always thought my sport wheels were too dark and didn't go well with the car. I considered swapping with an Si owner but my wife had hit a curb and who wants to swap for curb rashed wheels? (answer: no one) Anyway, I found a color silver I was happy with and I was...
  10. Faux Triple Exhaust for a Sport Hatch

    I know some with laugh at this $9 mod, but I was laying in bed dreaming about the Type R and an idea popped into my head how to make my Sport Hatch exhaust look similar. Pry the 2 stock tips apart and insert a slightly smaller tip in the middle, which connects to absolutely nothing (well, not...
  11. New 90210 car

    Anyone know the car Steve Sanders (Ian Ziering) is driving in the new 90210 commercial? I think I found my next car. Haha, right.
  12. Ikon Spoiler on a Hatchback Sport!

    As over-styled as the hatchback is in the rear end, I always felt it was missing something. So I risked 79 bucks (ebay) and purchased the Ikon Spoiler Type A already painted Glossy Black. A deal if you ask me! The stands measure exactly 5" at the base which is what the factory spoiler width...
  13. Trade: Si wheels for my Sport Hatch wheels?

    Hello, I have a lunar silver sport hatch and want the brighter SI wheels to better match the color. Any SI'ers want to swap me? Ohio/Midwest area. Thanks!
  14. I finally bought a Civic Hatch Sport!

    Well, I've been creeping around here for a while and was going to lease a 2019 so I could get Honda Sensing, but I got a great deal (I hope...as long as it doesn't break) on a 2018 Hatch Sport with a rebuilt title. Carfax says no frame damage but front collision occurred, so airbags deployed...
  15. 2019 Sport Sedan or 2017 Sport Hatch

    Dealers have brand new Sport sedans for 21k! Most used sport hatches are going for 18-20k. Getting the 2019 is a no brainer, correct? Disclaimer: I need a CVT b/c the wife is going to be driving it occasionally. I want paddle shifters since I can't have a 6MT. Should I maybe drop my...
