Did you paint the orange part of the CAI red? I asked 27WON if that would be possible and they told me no
They have that part anodized and orange is their color.

Yes, it was orange from 27Won, I sprayed it with VHT high temp wrinkle paint on only the visible areas when fully installed, taped off the rest.

Thinking of getting eibach pro kit on my sedan. Anyone in the Cincinnati area have that setup I could check out? Anyone notice a crazy ride change from stock? Like it?
I’m just north of Cincy on eibach pro, ride isn’t much different from how I remember the stocks feeling, I like them. With the front lip and springs, have to be pretty careful of driveways & curbs to not scrape

Actually happened over the last three days. But, took all the custom stuff off my Si (except vinyl on window trim), sold it to Carvana, and picked up a new Dad-mobile.

I will miss that car :(

That's not too bad a dad mobile to own! Plus you kept it in the Honda family! :thumbsup:

Hey people's! Today I installed my fog light covers with DRL. Love the way it came out.

Do you have Honda sensing? If you do have those caused any issues?

Not in Cincy,but I just put some on mine. They were a little bouncy till they settled. Now they're a little bit more firm than stock, but not much

These low front lips everyone adds look great but are they holding up? Unfortunately, I park on parking lots 24/7 and those parking lots have high curbs everywhere.
Time will tell. I’ve gotten into the habit of backing into spaces since I lowered it. I’ve also had to modify my drive to work due to some steep angled intersections. I’ll inevitably scrape from time to time, but based on past experiences, it’ll hold up fine assuming I don’t crunch it into a curb or face plant it into an entry/exit. I also ordered some Sliplo skids to soften the impact and reduce damage when I do scrape, which I’ll install this weekend.

I haven’t installed rear covers myself, I rarely have passengers otherwise I would definitely consider installing them. I thought I came across a YouTube tutorial showing the install, but it could’ve been for a different model car.




Thinking about ordering some Rallyarmor mud flaps, any of you have any success with them?

The PU ones are dope. No drilling. The rears are a bit of a pain if you do it on the ground but still doable. Maybe an hour, hour and a half install process. Soft too so they don't crack

Yes, replace that as soon as you can. Can't be safe to drive on a wheel that bent.

Two things. Aren't there wheel specialists that can straighten that bend out? And number two, this is why I'm still on the stock EX-L wheels. Sure they don't look amazing but they are sturdy as a tank against my potholed streets.

Yes, I believe that wheel could be repaired, and no, it shouldn't be driven on in the meantime.

I wanted to get some of those until I saw the price.

If it were me, I'd be shopping for a replacement wheel. Of course, like others have said, you could also see about getting it fixed, too. How's the car riding and driving with the wheel bent like that?

Thanks everyone for the replies, the car still drives fine. I didn't notice it until I had my tires rotated. I'm pretty sure there's no way it was done when my tires were rotated at Honda. I only went there for my last free oil change, now I'll be doing my own oil change. They overfilled my tires with air. I'm pretty sure the bend is from Mr hitting a pothole a week ago. I'm personally going to keep riding on them until I find a good deal on another one. Then after I get another one, I'll get this one fixed I'll use it as a spare.
