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

[WF19]

FK8 steering wheel installed today, and wrapped the silver trim on the steering wheel. Not-so-fun fact: that top steering wheel trim is a royal bitch to wrap. Unless you're truly masochistic, just buy the stick on shits from Amazon. lol

next up: accord endlink install. It was too damn hot out to do it today, and wrapping that trim took a hell of a lot longer than I anticipated.

It's gonna be too damn hot out to do much of anything until mid-September unless you like working at 6am,

Hey bro I love your shifter set up what is it I've very interested on the parts would really appreciate if you got back to me

PM me and I can give you a run down of how I did it

Lol, for real. I mean, I guess it's a good thing my work schedule changed to start at 4/5am so I'm kinda used to waking up stupid early

Got washed and waxed. Didn’t do it myself now looking back at I should have. However never felt comfortable with the buffer part. I guess looking back it now probably don’t even need to use a buffer.

Place I went to is all hand washed. Package includes paint correction, polish and wax wheels, under carriage wash, finish buff and polish, and meguiars ceramic sealant applied by hand or buffer. Wasn’t too happy with the results as I had to go back and clean up areas that were missed.

That looks so good. I was worried with my car being blue and all about adding more red than I already have. This looks really good.

ordered plain black cupholder liners and blue interior trim edging. Changing from the black/red to black/blue since i dont' have a sport or sport touring and the red is boring me.

Let us know if you feel a difference with the CTR RMM. Especially if you feel any vibration at lower idle (750-1500) as so many other CVT folks seem to when they install a more solid RMM. The CTR one isn't as hard as the aftermarket ones, and is basically a metal version of the stock part, so I'm definitely curious of the effect. My car has the rubber band skip at low idle, but I don't want to fix that by causing another problem.

Vibration increase inside the cabin is very minimal. I recently switched floor mats to 3DMaxpider Kagu so I can't even tell the vibration difference but hear from some users that NVH is increased but so little just barely increased it. Wheel hop or the rubber band feeling at lower idle or slow moving is noticeably improved. It is still there but it is better than the previous factory stock mount. Probably better do add Perrin inserts but I don't want any more increased NVH. This one still feels like factory for the NVH levels but the rubber band hopping effect is lessened.

Today I put some ‚carbon plastic’ details to cover that boring black plastic:

Still waiting for that long ‚carbon plastic’ trim for dashboard to match everything (should arrive by the end of June).

Also the other day I replaced regular bulbs inside car / inside trunk / reverse lights for LED 6000k - difference is colossal! This should be already installed from manufacture lol

How long did it take for your coilovers to ship? I'm still waiting to hear that mine have left the factory. I've heard it has been averaging around 6 weeks.

Mine were 7 weeks. Just standard ones. I hear if you go extreme low or custom spring rate it's longer
