Good to know just like lug nuts, i plan on getting a cusco sway bar not sure what end links are recommended or the best but i have just noticed lots of people with the accord links. I plan on doing all cusco bracing just received seat rails and center cross power brace.

I still owe a sound bite from the exhaust. I'll get it this weekend.
The 27Won exhaust fun was short lived. I loved the sound when I was testing everything with my stereo turned down. However, once I switched from test mode to daily driver mode and started listening to music, I reached the limits of reason. Even the lowest cruising note volume of the exhaust washed away all evidence of having a powered 300W subwoofer in the car. Worse still, the sound level mixed into the songs when I really got on it. And that was at MY listening level (wake the neighborhood). At my "with passenger" volume level, music was barely audible. In a DD, that's simply unacceptable, so I spent an hour this morning putting my OE exhaust back in. I left the 27Won DP and FP installed so I'm basically in sleeper mode. :dunno:

I guess I need to sell the FP back exhaust to recoup some of the money I spent. I'll post it as a sale item but if anyone has been looking to get that system, I have one with 80 miles on it that I'll sell on the cheap. :confused:

Don't get me wrong, there was nothing wrong with the exhaust note or volume if you're looking for that nice grumble. I just realized that for me, it wasn't as important as my music. Besides, the rest of the bolt-ons gave me the real improvements I was looking for.

So you guys know I have a carbon fiber theme going on. Some of my interior pieces were of the fake carbon type but over time I've been swapping them out for real carbon fiber. Today I got in some real carbon window switch trim to replace my fake carbon covers. They should look great once the weather warms enough so I can install them. :)

Swapped the OEM badges at the front and rear of my car today for the "type r" style, easy install, but I snapped the front OEM emblem, it just didnt wanna come out no matter what, well hopefully I wont need it anymore.

Would not believe an emblem can make such a difference.

The front has 2 ring clips holding it on and is harder to remove without breaking. You can only get to the clips by removing the grill. It's not usually worth it. 3M VSB tape will hold the new one on fine.

That's news to me! Actually very nice to know, I was so patient and gentle, but then I just realized I need some brute force to take it off. Well hopefully the 3M tape will hold it just fine in the long run!

Hey, we got the same headlights! I’ve only seen a few other civics with them. Yeah, it’s amazing what it emblem change can do.

made some additional tweaks to my interior.

Spoon rear view mirror - IDK if I would recommend. Loosing Dimming at night is pretty dumb...

Carbon fiber interior switch/arm covers. EPR interior pieces fucking suck. Do not recommend. Requires modifying the OEM piece underneath to mount.

The floor plate. Is that part of the mat or an additional item you sniped?
