Still thinking about it. I like the options and LED look of the SUMA. Might just do a soft fit and if they don't look good I'll donate them to my neighbor and get the OEM. Are they the European OEM?
Celebrated the completion with a wash, drive, photo. (Have the SUMA clear side markers; but debating the install on the account some people don't have a good fit.)
Someone might have posted later. They do however it's only only available in Europe I think. European Type R sport. Looks really cool... But as much as i was initially partial to the wing I have come to like it! But i would definitely take the all black interior and 19" wheels. ?
And when my wife was following me back from the install she called me to warn me a cop was following me in my blind-spot for several miles. Straight profiling my blue car!

If you put it up high say towards the center you will probably get better (left to right) footage; however near the bottom I can hardly see it in the rear view mirror. (I have a small white light on the camera to show it's on and that might be distracting long term.) See picture how the wing...
1st wash after the ceramic coating. "Civic" badge delete. (Before you ask how I just asked the ceramic guys and they did it no charge...pro!)
Front and rear dash cam with parking mode install. Hid all wires and routed through hatch boot sleeve to prevent any issues later. Completely hidden...
