Had my sedan just shy of a month.

PRL CAI $355

Cleaning products ~$60

I have tabs open in my browser with shopping carts full of detailing products though. As well as tabs with other goodies, mostly cosmetic right now. Memorial Day this weekend... I'll see what sales are happening.

How do you like your dash cam? I was sold on the Rexing cam I had found on Amazon. But, have heard mixed things about the brand since. Been unsure if I want to pull the trigger or not.

I quite like it for what it is. Its pretty simple to use, but after a few days of leaving it in the sun, the 3M adhesive tape gave out so watch out for that. It also does vibrate a lot because the mount they give you isn't fully secure but you could dodge that with a suction mount.

I've kept a spreadsheet since I got the car(first time doing that) so I could keep track of what I've spent on it. I still want to get either K-tuner or Hondata, DP, FP, intercooler, maybe turbo upgrade. Then I'll have to upgrade the clutch...

Maybe I should stop where I'm at :hmm: :drive:

only 400 dollars on ktuner v1. Will not get anything else until the depreciation is done in about 2 more years. will only upgrade when something is due in maintannce. I.E tires. Will get R888's, or brakes, hawk HPS when they are due. In case I want something else but unlikely, already paid off

I no longer blow money on cars but I blow it on expensive vacations instead and get a break from crazy USA life lol

3-10k a month on vacations for a couple months at a time. I'm over blowing my money on cars and paying lawyers and cops off

Owned the car two weeks. I work at a Honda dealer so my pricing is wholesale for most of this:

1-35 % Ceramic Solar Gard Tint all around $230
2- 17x8 Enkei TFR Copper wheel set with black gorilla tuner lugs and locks $850
3-225/45R17 Kumho SP31 (found $69 each with free shipping amazon. Deal still there) $290
4-Eibach’s Pro Kit springs $245
5-Labor for tires and springs $125 (employee pricing)
6-Carbon fiber safety inspection license plate bracket $20

Total = $1,760

Don’t have too much for plans. Did most of what I want to do right away. Would like to dechrome front LX grill with Sport Hatch pieces. And possibly blackout chrome trim over side windows and Honda badges.

I've spent surprisingly little so far. Just the clearbra, side impact protectors, and leather console upgrade.

This is the first car I've owned where I didn't rip out the suspension within the first year. The OEM setup is tough to beat. Though the Si's brake pads are in desperate need of an upgrade. I will probably do HPS + OEM blanks when the time comes, as that combo worked very well on my last platform.

I am waiting for some more long term data on the impact that intakes, tuning, and related mods have on Honda's TCDI. On other platforms, it's resulted in some ugly premature buildup on the valves and runners. And while I think Honda may have cracked the proverbial nut with their own design, I am waiting for Hondata's long term test results to come back first.
