im sure everyone is aware that support rods are not meant to be mounted to the bumper.... that is the wrong way to put support rods.
95% of people who get these have no intention to track the car they just like the track style ricer craze.

Not gunna lie I'm part of the 95% lol but I'd rather have everything mounted right anyway. I'm personally waiting for battle aero's chassis mounted splitter.

Yea that’s track style. The ricer comment was harsh but was just saying it’s a popular trend currently

Racebred Components splitter using their s2000 quick release chassis mounts modified to fit the CTR bumper support beam, 4 support braces behind the bumper. works very well, is very stiff. Very happy with it.

Very nice. I was considering taking some beam clamps and all thread to chassis mount one. I def need a chassis mounted splitter to support my cracked front lip from a stupid fox.

Do you have the cooling plate off purposefully or just from doing work on the car? Nice cooling vents. You guys going to be putting up any new videos with the 500hp built engine/big turbo type r. Noticed there haven't been any videos for a long while. Probably due to tracks not really running in the winter would be my guess.

I ordered the AeroFlowDynamics and after messing around with it for a few hours it went back in the box and will go up for sale if things ever return to normal.
Zero written instructions, zero pictures/video of how-to, zero tech. support, turns out you need to do the usual full front bumper assembly pull PLUS an additional section behind it.
Rod mountings are NOT pre-drilled and no template is provided.
I seriously think they just did a template and the online images are all just PhotoShop (might explain the lack of rods I most of them).
I'm not sure they have ever actually installed one on a Honda Civic Type R at all.
I'd say - learn from my (costly) mistake.

I feel you on this. My splitter from Downforce Solutions came the exact same way. It’s all kinds of frustrating when you pay $275 for a part and can’t even get instructions on how to install it. Hell, my $40 side markers came with detailed instructions on how to install them.

They not that hard to install. Plus the downforce solutions ones are predrilled and they fall out on the plastic push pins under the car.

LOL - $275 I wish!
Tack on another $100...
I genuinely feel a bit like I got ripped off!
