What did you do to your Type R today?

[krees]

Got some new wheels to run thicker tires to handle the crappy north east roads and seasons (and the gravel driveway at my new house). Picture not taken at new house.
Enkei tsv 18" with michelin pilot sport all seasons (18x40x245).

Mine just arrived today, so in for feedback before I put them in. Have a day coming up to do PRL HVI, downpipe, front pipe, exhaust, and possibly intercooler all in a day (will have access to a lift, so want to take advantage of it) and will put these in likely based on feedback i've seen so far.

I've run the Perrin inserts for the last couple months and the only time I notice any vibration is when sitting still running the AC, and even then it's minimal. Definitely worth it imo, especially considering it's only about $30.

Just arrived to match my other carbon bits on the inside.

Got a full front PPF!

Smart move. Would you mind telling us cost and general area/location and how long it took? Thanks.

that color is so great. i want to trade in my CW for a boost blue but them read seats argh.

Even misspelled, I sense a disturbance in the red force. If you look at the dark side (maroon) the force looks back.
Red teach you I will.

Although I love the Goodyear Eagle Exhilarate A/S, anyone tried the Mich Cup 2s yet?

Mine was full front which included the side mirrors, door cups, and door edges. The car was finished in 1 day. The PPF was custom cut, so no pre-made kit was used. Oregon/Washington area and it was ~$1900. The quotes from other shops I received varied from $1600-2100. Definitely worth it!

Installed SUMA Performance's side mirrors, rearview mirror, and sidemarkers (smoked, sequential).
Enjoying the extra view from the side mirrors and rearview mirror.
I actually ordered the Spoon Sports side mirrors, but I accidentally slipped in my garage and dropped them, shattering them in the process.

I like the sidemarkers. I knew there was going to be a gap (bummer) and it's honestly not that noticeable unless you're looking straight at it. The sequential turn signal with it is really cool though.

Day one of tuning down tomorrow is the final day of tuning and then I get my car back. Still waiting on the new wheels and tires that shipped last week. :/

Added some new shoes!

What brand and size are those

What brand and size are those

They are Satin Bronze.

The brand is Stance. The model is SF07 I was told I am the first person to have these wheels for the Type R. They made my center bore exactly 64.1 and drilled the bolt pattern correctly. They are 19x8.5 with an offset of +38 wrapped in Michelin Pilot Sport 4S 245/35R19. They weigh in at exactly 46 lbs with wheel and tire.

Now were those the carbonmyride front overlays they sell for the window switches or the entire replacement? I'm still waiting on my front and rear overlay versions from them. Yours look super nice though.

Edit: just saw @boosted180sx that you said you got the full replacement window switch.
