So if I put an R on my car,strictly for Rick, will I get flamed for being a Type R poser?

The Si badge mounts normally to the grill with screws to back side. On the standard hatch grill this does not exist. I had custom make a mounting plate, lock nut and washers to mount it securely from behind. To remove it I must remove the whole bumper.

Hey how does the front SI badge install on your car?

Anyone know if the OEM TypeR vortex spoiler will just plug and play on the civic hatch? I am not a fan of the top spoiler on the hatch but the vortex installation on the TypeR looks really nice.

I'm scared to even post on this thread but here it goes, if I got the type r wing, nothing else type r related, am I considered a poser as well?

I was also looking at the Invidia q300 exhaust for our cars, it has 3 tips though. I'm sure i'll get reamed as being a wannabe for that too huh...:(:(:(

(I have the red badges but I wrapped them in gold, so they don't count lol)

I think it's fine as long as you don't try to pass it off as a type r (ie: type r word badge).

Anyone else who says otherwise is just yucking on your yum.

Anyone can do anything they want with their own car. Adding elements of the R is fine. Things like the big wing, red H badges or side vents etc...

But, throwing on the Type R word badging is just seriously lame.

Just have a type r rep wing from abs dynamics and invidia q300 exhaust with 3 tips. I'm actually planning on doing the lip, sideskirt extension, and rear diffuser from abs dynamics too. Building my car mainly for daily and canyons and the occasional track day. I realized that a lot of people hate on making the hatch look like a type r when it's not, but i'm building my car for me. Anybody that complains needs to realize i'm spending the money on my car, not their money lol. LSD and clutch and flywheel going in next month and going to start doing real power mods later on in the year. I love driving fast but I love flossing and turning heads too.

What brand is the wing on your hatch? It looks smaller than the ABS Dynamics so I'm guessing EOS/Showcase Sticker or Ebay?

Edit: Nvm someone pointed out it's a sedan.
