Earliest I can get mine into the dealer to even look at it to confirm it's covered under the extended warranty is Sat and I scheduled this back in May. Was 90 today but thankfully it's going to drop down to the 70s next few days.

Yeah, I was aware of the issues, but surprised that it happened with a 2020 model with less than 7000 miles on it.

BTW, we had a new 1965 Impala SS when I was a young boy. I remember my Dad saying it was a lemon though. Hopefully yours isn't.

Car has been riding smooth (knock on wood) no issues. Im about to install some go-fastER parts as well as some more suspension components.

This picture was taken 2 weeks ago at Lake Berryessa, CA
Details on my youtube channel.

Curious. Not wanting to do CF on the exterior. Does anyone have gloss black caps they want to get rid of? Tabs in place. So i can just replace my blue ones with the black ones. ?

My 17' Si has just over 17k miles on it (I need to drive more I guess) but I agree that shouldn't happen on a brand new car.

As for the Impala, I actually just sold it a few weeks ago and after owning it for 10 year it was pretty trouble-free other than being 50+ years old.

Oh the usual...

Try to run an errand in torrential rain and hit debris

Install new grille, LED fog lamps and Made a DIY “civic” LED side marker with sequential turn signal. Full tutorial is here on youtube.

Installed Suma Performance side-markers. A bit brighter than I expected, but happy with how they look overall. The only issue is that there is quite a variance in the color temp between these LEDs and my low-beam headlights.

First oil change since getting the car yesterday. Working on the DIY cold air intake mod I found elsewhere on the site, got a 3" hose run from the bottom of the airbox to the fender well... but then managed to cut my vent in the front panel so it's not symmetrical with the passenger side.

Probably ordering the updated front bumper panels in a few weeks, even when I'm not looking the lack of symmetry bothers me.

What he meant to say was, "I finally have an excuse to upgrade to a set of MPSA's." It's cool, CIVICX peeps, i caught it.

Gah! I've been caught!!

I'm tempted... Soooo tempted. Don't think I want to make that investment with 10k miles on my GMAX.


Although... I could maybe go staggered ?

Installed Garage Line 20mm spacers today. They made quite a noticeable difference in the stance and will make it really nice once the coilovers go on and I lose the wheel gap!

The before and after below!

Just booked mine for next Friday, same problem. Local $tealership service is unfortunately run by absolute <polite word for cork soaking ripoff azholios...? "It's a business email so it needs to be just right..."> so I am already gearing up in anticipation of a fight. Thanks for the TSB reference.

Put my new Thule Force XT cargo box.

Are these the stock wheels?

I haven't hit a curb in years. In YEARS I say. Never in my Civic; the last time I remember doing it was in my old AF Chevy Malibu which had to have been 2014 or 2015.

I installed my brand new Enkeis on Saturday. I hit a curb today.

I'm freaking livid. Rashed up my brand new rim on the rear passenger. No excuse, my head was up my ass. THE DAMN THING WAS NOT EVEN 72 HOURS OLD!

I am sad. I used a dremel to smooth it out a bit and used a black paint pen to hide it (it wasn't THAT bad) but yeah... I'm sad. No pics. I'm gonna go eat ice cream now.
