Just took this on. Not too bad. About 2 hours to install the pillar trim, 1 hour for steering wheel and door piece swap, and 30 minutes for the vents.

Complements the Honda carbon bits inside very nicely. Great quality.
Looks nice. I am intrigued by the CF fender wing outlets (fender vent) pieces. Is that an overlay with 3M adhesives, or do you replace the entire black plastic pieces? They are a little pricey, but I hate the black plastic pieces.

Overlay with 3M for the vents and steering wheel.

The door trim and pillars are full replacements.

Yes its pretty time consuming you will end up Breaking the oem ones but there only like 15-20 bucks for new ones from honda i also found that the window trim has a small
Clip on the inside so have the window down then roll the bottom window trim twards you i ended up busting the clip so had to order new one 25 bucks for that but you pull back the top door molding just a lil bit like 3 inches down on top of door if u go more its a pain then take out the philips screw then take a plastic pry tool and work the edges down there just 2 way taped on i just pryed them off they crack for me so i just busted them off then removed the remaining tapE cleaned it up real good then wiped down with rubbing alcohol then i let dry for a few min then used a 3m adheasion promoter pad where the tape was going and pre fit them pulled the tape and it was done hondapartsnetwork.com where i got the parts from
Is the process the same for the sedan? I want to buy the RS glossy pillars but am nervous to try installing this. I've looked online for a video on how to do this but can't find anything.
