  1. M340 or G80 M3 experience from FL5

    Totally agree with this. Having had a G80, I can tell you that any M cars will have the same seat and stiffness issues that will not help your back pain. Also, if you already have an FL5, please don't get any M Lite car. I've always hated how BMW added M packages to regular cars. Like...
  2. It finally occurred to me why this was happening.

    This started happening to me way back with BMWs. Always thought it was too sensitive with just the water hitting the sensor.
  3. Official Wheel Fitment Thread for 11th Gen FL5 Civic Type R

    TE37 Saga 18x10 +40 275/35/18 PS4S Eibach Prokit So far I have driven around 12+ miles on these. Won't go up any time soon as I NEVER drive this car. Just hit 200 miles and I'm a year in. No rubbing. Probably should have gone with 285/35/18. Just ordered, so I'll test fit them when I get a...
  4. PPF Expectations

    Yup...what @FL5Frank said. Be done with that shop and move on.
  5. PPF Expectations

    Did your friends do a paint correction before applying PPF?
  6. PPF Expectations

    It is totally possible to get it perfect. Mine is perfect. No such debris under. You should have just paid a shop for a quality job. Even then, no all PPF installers are created equal.
  7. Official Wheel Fitment Thread for 11th Gen FL5 Civic Type R

    @SKINNIE Thanks! That was my gut feeling.
  8. Official Wheel Fitment Thread for 11th Gen FL5 Civic Type R

    @SKINNIE I have TE37 Saga 18x10 +40. Ordered some Eibach Prokits. I really want to mount 275/35 on them, but do you or anybody else think that will be a bad idea? Should I stick with 265/35?
  9. Official Wheel Fitment Thread for 11th Gen FL5 Civic Type R

    @Shbox Did you ever get these mounted? If so, what size tires did you end up going with?
  10. Exclusive Batch: Volk Racing CE28N-Plus 18x10.0 +40 (God Spec)

    Any information on this setup? Tires? Drop? Also, @lmtlsauto @squeegie is the Shining Bronze Metal set still available? I inquired about this same exact set from another vendor and was told 5-7 months. I'm not patient. Lol! Thanks.
  11. The FL5 Dealer ADM Markup Thread

    Phew! Good thing I didn’t buy this one for you.
  12. The FL5 Dealer ADM Markup Thread

    The Raptor R I have on order has a $50k markup on average. That makes the $3k I paid for the CTR look silly. Crazy times we are living in!!!
  13. What did you pay for your FL5?

    Where in South Jersey? What dealership? I also got mine from South Jersey. MSRP +$895 (Pro-Pack) + $950 (Door illumination) + $1595 (Wheel and Tire). Overall, MSRP + $3440. Not too shabby since I was getting anywhere from $10k to $25k ADM just from other NJ dealerships alone. Luckily found one...
  14. Jester’s FL5 build journal.

    Love the TRX! I’m a truck guy so I’m drawn to that. I have a deposit on another R. I’m expecting delivery of a ‘24 Raptor R…eventually.
  15. Type R owner age?

    This sums me up. 39 going on 40. 10000+ posts on Honda-Tech. First car was an M3, but got into Hondas in the late 90’s early 00’s until 2004-2005. Got into Bimmers and trucks. Literally drove (and continue to) lifted trucks and ///M cars. That’s about all I’d touch…until I saw the FL5 and this...
  16. Post your FL5 Civic Type R delivery pics! 🙌 📸

    I left everything on. Came off the truck straight to my detailer. They removed that film on the hood and the other white protective film. Been in my garage for 3 weeks now, plastic still on in the interior. I haven’t had time to drive it. A whopping 17 miles on it now…geez. I use it as much as...
  17. The MOST ADM you would pay.

    I totally agree with this. Do what you want, when you want. A couple of thousand dollars should not matter. If it does, then maybe buying this car or any car for that matter might not be the best thing for you at this time. Just enjoy. It’s just money.
