How did you take out the red stripe? Does it just peel off? Also did you put anything to replace it?
Its' a vinyl sticker. Start by picking at one end and then slowly peel it off.

You drifted that into a tree didn’t you?! Sucks for the loss but on to better things! You’ll love it. I like the red stripe delete I think I will do that.

Yeah, they were awesome 35860 OTD. Ethan Godwin was my sales guy. Super cool dude!
$35860 otd?? As in after tax, tag, title? That's usually considered otd. If so then you got it several thousand below msrp and props to you!!

Hey man! This is the sales representative from Honda of Columbia with the White Type R! I spoke with you briefly and told you how much you'd like it!

Glad you're enjoying the ride! And we really appreciate your business, I'll go ahead and let Ethan (your sales rep) know that you're enjoying it!

Hold on. You really got this from Honda of Columbia? When I was pricing Si’s they wouldn’t come off a grand or 2 over msrp for the SI. I ended up going to Georgia.
This is not true. We do not charge over MSRP on any vehicle.

They feel around the same speed wise but the power band is different. The RS's power was a bit more linear. I also put a AFE power module on the RS which really helped bump up the power and feel. I will be buying the same module for the Type R. AFE makes great products!

Any better pics of the red stripe delete? Like better lighting? Maybe 10-15 feet away from the car? Also have a pmm and thinking of doing it

I don't believe that for a second. MSRP, sure, but I haven't seen anybody credibly claim to have paid less, let alone several thousand less.

I removed the red stripe on my PMM and highly recommend it. Think it looks much better without.

I've been battling the idea of romving the lower red stripe from my pmm. Muggsy, you may have just convinced me (though the wife could unconvince me lol)

Looks great btw

Yeah. I think I'll rip it off but keep the existing tape on a roll of sorts so I could match it up to some aftermarket striping (unlikely I would need to but...) just in case. It does look cleaner without though

Doesn't aFe just trick the ECU to boost more...and not correct A/F, etc?

I'm running Ktuner and love it. I'd recommend ktuner or hondata over aFe
