Install
my OEM Honda Civic Si Coupe (2012) Muffler
and OEM Honda Civic Si Coupe (2013) Resonator,
with 2 1/4in Custom Stainless Steel Mandrel Bent Piping today.
Oh, with my old S2000 AP2 exhaust tips transferred to this new set up:

Below are the link to the complete story (and more pictures):

I finished bagging mine today! Finally got to drive it after a week of install/modifications/fixing/etc. Loving my Accuair/ViAir setup!!! Since it is in the car I was worried about noise but really just a loud hum. Not bad at all. Having to work a few kinks but is looking good. I have a set of 17" Volk TE37's that I am going to get refinished so that is next.

Hi sultanofslide,

The sound is very very very deep at idle.,
starting 2,500 rpm to about 4,000 rpm it is a bit too loud for my taste,
hopefully I will get used to this,...

Strangely above 5,000 rpm it sound very similar to stock exhaust.

Please note that the Civic Si Coupe 2013 resonator that I used
are True Straight Trough design !!!

The Civic Si Coupe 2012 Muffler though are Baffled design (not straight through)...

Cleaned and reinstalled the hood bra.




Also tried to get a close up shot of the pitted areas on the hood. all those little white specks are pin sized chips in the hood and the bumper is worse.

The area under the hood bra was perfect so clearly it did it's job....wonder why he didn't install the bumper portion =/



Car cover and California duster kept my car clean for a week which was nice. Mind you my car was covered or it was sunny all day...then I took my kid out to eat (his choice) for helping me with the intense yard work we had neglected over the holidays, and it decided to rain for all 10 minutes.

Next on the list is installing my honda OEM cargo liner, tinting/vinyl the tail lights, deciding when to buy the 3d floor liners/VG shark fin/door sill guards, finding time to plastidip my difusers and finding a good deal on a OEM cargo tray....oh and fixing the trim around the DVD unit.

Not mine, but this looks kind of tempting to paint the Fitshuttle grill.

Yeah I wasn't a huge fan of the silver finish of that grill, painted might be the way to go if you want to switch it up.

Hard to guess, you've got your mugen kit already + nice led tails. I'm guessing you ordered a real life Mugen girl from Japan.

I have a feeling I know what Connor is up to.

Also if I have to drive Too Drunk To Truck much longer I think I'll go crazy.
