Such a cheap mod, but it really makes the engine bay look neater. I installed the side covers I received today.

Looks nice. How well do they keep debris out from the sides? My biggest peeve with 10th Gen are all the nooks and crannies, to easy for debris to get trapped. My old 7th Gen wasn’t this bad.

I don't see any gaps that would trap debris, or really even dust. The front edge tucks under the weather stripping above the headlights to keep stuff from blowing straight under.

Dirt would be out of sight, out of mind for the most part. However, this install/removal takes like 2 minutes per side so it wouldn't be a chore to take them off for a deep clean if desired.

Well worth ~$50. Just make sure it comes with clips. Mine even came with a wrench to work with the bolt that gets reused for each side and a panel tool for the clips.

Beautiful day today, got up to 66F! I did a good cleaning of the wheels and some Armor All tire dressing on the rubber.

Got the motor out and transmission attached to new motor. I really hoped I did it right. Just past halfway done the swap. This has been one of the most challenging things I have done.

Interesting little happening. On my way home there was a silver sedan on the highway ahead of me and from a distance, I thought it might be the new 11th gen. He was cruising along at about 75 and when he spotted me, he gave it some gas. Obviously, being tuned, I passed him with ease. But that's not the point of this post.

The crazy thing is, until I passed him and looked in my rear view mirror, I wasn't 100% sure it was the new Civic. It was. That rear end is one of the most generic things I've ever seen. Totally run of the mill. Not ugly by any means. Just 100%, certifiably "meh".

Well, a bit bummed today. Recieved the ignition coil cover [below] from Amazon but my DC Sports USB keeps it from fitting. :(

Does anyone know of one that fits with the DC Sports bar? The JDM one looks like it ends just after the oil cap, where it's sort of in the center on this one.

It's a shame because it looks really nice and has a nice heat shield layer. I guess I can sell it if anyone wants it. PM me. Fits 1.5T only.

The Amazon link is:

I also replaced all of my interior leds with red leds. I love how it looks now! Really brings out the OEM led strips and accentuates the steering wheel.

Did this today. Took about an hour without rushing. Was nice to do some hands on stuff with the car after working as hard as it's been lately.
What tail lights are these? This looks freaking awesome
