I ordered some 3m clear bra bulk film to protect my front end from rocks.

Phillip did you feel a noticeable difference in power?
How about sound?

it wasn't like a completely different car or anything lol but it definitely felt a little quicker. but the sound is incredible. i wasn't really expecting too much except a light sucking noise, however its louder, and very low. the sounds great. driving it around right after i put it in with my friend (wait4thefit) we were both really suprised by how great it sounded and drove. he has a diy autozone intake and he liked it so much that he's trying to get a prm for his gd3 now haha.

The Gorilla locks finally arrived so I installed the, I had on 1 set OEM Honda (4 locks), and just bought a set of the Gorilla locks (16) so I left the OEM's on and installed 3 more Gorilla locks per wheel. I love them, they are shorter than the stock lug nuts, and are locking.

Last week minor interior mods; JDM hazard, JDM cig lighter, disable A/C on defrost, installed 2 JDM type coin holders right next to the VSA switch, installed the armrest, and some other small things.

This week I wanna claybar, and do the Meguir 3 step wash/wax, drill a hole and reinstall the accessory switch between the cig lighter and the aux input, I just gotta figure out how to wire it. Anyone got any suggestions?

OEM Armrest w/ Storage & Interior Illumination

Just finished the installation of the armrest w/ storage compartment and interior illumination kit (both are OEM accessories).

Quality is excellent and installation is straight forward with full instructions that made the job easy. Will post pictures later.

Very happy with the results!
