Art Unique Type R Build Thread

[art unique]

Had my Type R for a few months and finally decided to do a build thread. I purchased the car on December 28th, 2017 in Sarasota, FL. Traded in my 2015 Si for it and didn't get hit over the head with a crazy ADM. Badge #9612

First mods done to the car were Eibach springs, Volk ZE40's 18x9.5 +40 18x8.5 +30 reverse stagger wrapped in Firestone Firehawk Indy 500 265/35 and 255/35. Wheels were powdercoated in a textured matte bronze. Also removed the red stripe which was annoying me since day one and went the Jonnys Honda route with a color matched stripe.

Got tired of the bronze and switched it up to a SL style colorway

I purchased the car on December 28th, 2018 in Sarasota, FL.

Good to know the CTR will still be made.

Lol. I didn't catch that....

However I bought my CW CTR on December 28th, 2017 as well. #9344.

Sick build! I like that you got rid of the red stripe on the lip. And I think the silver/gunmetal wheels look even better than the bronze. Keep it up!

Very tasteful! Happy modding!

No, Im in Ft Lauderdale but drove to Sarasota so I wouldn't pay the crazy prices these dealerships had down here.

Ah gotcha. I'm really liking those wheels. Nice build. Also the blue trim (instead of the red) is subtle but fantastic. Didn't see it at first
