What did you do to your Civic today? (II)

[dendropheliax]

Okay, I gotta ask, what are Home Depot side splitters?

I used PVC molding and cut and painted. Used double sided tape and bolts to stick on.

And so begins my spring '21 mod season. Well actually, it began yesterday with those awesome Depo dark smoked/amber side markers. Today I washed my car using water for the first time in about 5 months.

I also added replacement front and rear carbon vent covers that tie in perfectly with my real carbon B&C pillars.

Here's my mod plan after this:

Interior
Install stainless steel door kick panels

Exterior
Install 18" anthracite wheels and DWS06 tires
Install shark fin rear diffuser lip
Install Cosmic Blue painted roof spoiler
Install Ikon front lip

Handling
Install OEM CTR subframe brace
Install Ultra Racing rear lower bar

Tune
I'll either self tune and include the new non-Si artificial knock control removal feature or wait til TSP or Phearable releases new tunes that include it.

I have all the parts; just gotta find time to do it (still actually go to work 5 days a week). I think when all is said and done I'll have a helluva non-Si turbo sedan with all the other mods I've done.

Only problem is modding is a costly addiction. But it's safer than drugs. lol

Strut Bar or Sway Bar?

I already have the Si rear sway bar installed. This one is more of a rear cross member brace.

Looks like they are now calling it a rear torsion brace...

Was gonna do a replica type r wing but I actually decided to go with this spoiler... what do you guys think?

I think the Type R Wing is better but this looks good too. Maybe also do an upgrade on the rear roof tailgate spoiler?

I like it. Then again I'm a fan of subtle duckbill spoilers.

Thanks man ! I was thinking of doing the boomba wing risers for the top spoiler.

Haha, I concur with gtman.

Installed a 22mm rear swaybar in my ex-t. Way bigger than the stock one. I replaced the stock plastic endlinks with oem accord ones which are metal.

That is the same size of the SI sway bar ? Plus is it a problem installing it?

Non-si is around 15.5 , si is around 18, type r is around 20.5 and this aftermarket one is 22. Super easy install.

Thanks I’m limited on work space to do work on my car some small stuff I could do

 

[Mrbadwrench]

Just make sure you get new endlinks. The stock ones are plastic so they'll break. You can get either stock accord ones which are metal, or you can get fancy adjustable aftermarket ones.

Super easy for some people, I had a difficult time getting the new in place, finally raised one side of the car more than the other.

Everyone struggles with different things. Cai install was one of the worst things I've ever done i felt like on this car ?? mostly just getting the old one out...
