if it's one of those that just comes off with pry tool or elbow grease, I'd be scared for my life....
Wasn't that much elbow grease to be honest... Nor a pry bar. I was trying to pull snow off the car :p It popped back on, though I haven't been applying that much pressure to get snow off around the vortex generators since.

Do they help with blindspots at all?
They help with the blind spots for sure! Took sometime to adjust with seeing much more in the mirrors during the 1st drive, but I am adjusted now and happy with the results!

Took her as a spectator to the Tire Rack 1 Lap kickoff. Just phone pics, but some cool setups and quite a few cars I wouldn't have expected to be competing like... 3 new Camrys (one evidently had a new Supra motor?) and 3 Chevy HHRs. Yes, those HHRs. More power to them though!

Got to pull out alongside the McLaren as I was leaving, man that sumbitch looks mean.

Only 1 CTR running that I could see both at the event and on the online roster. Was pretty neat pulling into the spectator lot and having people take pics of my car - it still draws a crowd around these parts.

Installed my Motegi MR924 wheels with 245/35ZR19 Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 3+ tires. Thanks to @dunphyjp for the assistance with answering some questions about the center caps :)

What I like about this setup is the fact that it is an all-season tire with a rim that has a very similar look to stock, and has plenty of offset (53mm). With the 245/35/19 tires, there are no speedo issues, and so far comfort and performance are great! Note: I daily drive my CTR, so no extreme driving or track use.

Looking good, re the caps I believe the Japan spec nsx has that gunmetal color without the red if that's what you were looking for

Man, I really love the NSX wheels, but couldn't justify the price difference. Looks good!

Stuck on the $7 faux CF gear shift trim. It's for an auto, thought about trimming it down, but couldn't be bothered. The mis-fitment doesn't bother me that much.

Also did a mock-up test for custom mud flaps I'll be installing tomorrow

Took a pic of hondata software lol. Nothing much. I prefer this over having it on infotainment.
2nd pic is kind blurry. Action cam isnt great up close

Is your steering wheel CF trim real or the stickers from SYNTH? Ordered a bunch of trim from SYNTH, but didn’t realize it was a ‘soft’ sticker & sent it back. PMC has the real overlay for the bottom of the wheel which fits nicely, but nothing for for around the steering wheel controls.
