What did you do to your Type R today?

[bwalla12]

What tow hook are you using? I'm assuming it's the USR mount.

Perrin. I'm going to be replacing it with a titanium one in about a month or so

Did the red pinstripe delete using the carbon fiber vinyl tape available on EBay for $9.64 shipped. Hpbyhermann shared the tip and I’ve had a roll for several months, just no time to install til now.

Cleaned the surface with alcohol then applied. Was surprisingly easy and fun to do. The nice thing is it’s reversible if ever get the itch for red again.

Matches the existing trim perfectly.

Would be a little tougher without a lift, but still doable.

Looks perfect Tom, great job on the installation process!! That pattern does match the spoiler really well!!

Looks perfect, ordering some myself!

Spent a few minutes installing the Acuity billet throttle pedal spacer this afternoon. 5 minutes later I have the gas pedal raised to almost even with the brake pedal for easy heel-toe and other shifting operations. Set to the "C" positioning felt perfect for me. Awesome modification that should be on your list of cheap and effective things that really add to the driving experience. Used a 5mm. allen socket for the new hardware on the Acuity spacer and a 12mm. socket for the original pedal nuts.

Hey I’m watching here too! The Voltex 2V looks fantastic. Always considered the rear of the Type R the weakest part of the design aesthetically. Not any more

I know this won't be for everyone but ordered some aerosol aegean blue paint and paint matched the engine cover. The red stuck out a little too much for my taste with the other mods I have]

Nice!

Now that I’ve seen yours, I’m a bit surprised those aren’t available via the aftermarket.

I love the mods. Would you mind posting some more pics of your car. I would like to see more with your wheels. Thanks.

Would really love to see someone paintmatch the mounting plates and end plates on that wing.

love those wheels, curious about what tires your using and the tire size. And how difficult was the rear wiper delete, I think it looks much cleaner without it.

Tires are Michelin PS4S 265/35/18. The rear wiper delete is simple. Remove the interior hatch plastic panels, use 10mm to remove nut holding the wiper, use 23mm or crescent wrench to remove nut that holds the wiper bracket/washer, use 10mm to remove 3 bolts that hold the wiper motor, pop out rubber grommet and pop in the rubber plug for the delete.

@PrisonerOfDoom Thanks much! You've got a great looking car. What else have you done to it? When you have a chance could you post another images(s), directly from the side.
