r/CivicX

Had My FK7 for around 3 weeks now, enjoying it ✌️

Happy with the results

Yes yes it’s a cvt, but skunk2 stage 1 camshaft ktuned, ETL Performance oil cooler, drag 18x 7.50 with milestar interceptors 235/40/18

Saving some money to re paint and fix the imperfections in the body, also will be changing the front bumper to something more sporty and hood for something that vents fresh airflow, if there’s any suggestion I will humbly accept it:), mind you I am not rich and I plan on keeping this car as a record of high mileage

I got these 10th gen type r/touring model style headlights for my civic sport sedan back in March 2024 from VLAND.com and I have had them on the car ever since then. They’re amazing headlights, although, throughout this whole time of having them on my car, I’ve noticed that for one, whenever I turn the car on, it takes about 10 seconds for the daytime running lights to actually turn on, rather than them turning on/lighting up immediately upon turning the car on, and I’ve also noticed that the automatic high beam setting in my car no longer works. In other words, when I switch the headlights to the auto high beam setting, only the low beams work while the high beams never turn on even when there’s absolutely nothing in my cars way that would cause them to not turn on (since when using the auto high beams setting, the high beams will automatically turn off if a car is approaching or you’re approaching an intersection, but, when nothing is in the way, they will turn on automatically). I’m not sure as to why the auto high beam setting doesn’t work with these aftermarket headlights, given that the high beams themselves turn on and off just fine when I use them manually, and the low beams work fine too. The installation for these headlights is just plug and play and I had my dad install them for me so I’m not sure if he did something wrong to cause the delay in the DRL’s turning on, as well as to cause the auto high beam setting to not work. Although my dad installed these headlights for me, I know that the plugs are simple as there’s one plug for the daytime running light, one for the low beams, one for the turn signal, and one for the high beams. Besides the high beams not ever activating when the auto high beam setting is on, and the DRL’s taking roughly 10 seconds to turn on upon turning the car on, everything else with these headlights works great. Still though, does anyone know if the two issues that I mentioned are a result of just the aftermarket headlights themselves, or if it’s a result of poor installation

He selling them for 350$ but i don’t know much about coil overs and especially what to look for (in damages) when buying a used coil overs. Just want a second opinion on if these are worth or not

My car had a Type R bumper on it which I didn’t love, fit was awful and it was giving me errors for my radar cruise and all that. I found a stock bumper on eBay so I grabbed it and threw it on there. Paint isn’t as good as I had hoped, lot of pitting, but that’s why they invented black Sharpie markers.

Install was a lot of fun because my car is a rebuilt title for a front end accident and there were more random screws in there holding the bumper mounts on than you generally like to see, but nothing was bent anyway. I also broke one of the fog light connectors, so I’m gonna have to take it off again anyway at some point.

Overall though I’m happy, no more error messages and I like the look of the stock bumper. I’ll get a lip for it once the 9th gen LX I’m selling goes.

I just got some Pirelli PZero tires in 285/35R18 on Vivid Racing 18" wheels with +45 offset and 9.5" wide. Likely the stock suspension. I haven't gone full ham yet, but there's zero rubbing on the daily bumps.

Well 760 total pit the door, and they tried to tack on 350 to cover my "import fees" I would be incurring... I told them that was true but because of the Supreme Court ruling the import fees from tariffs have been dropped at least temporarily at the prices they were at

(we ship hunting/competition shotgun parts worldwide, so deal with the changing rules in both directions daily)

Point is, i told them I can get a nice hood here for just about that price, and no thank you for over a grand since its a BIG chance to take, although the company has extensive positive feedback... its still a gamble on quality.

So I'll keep posted on this thread if anyone cares we shall see if i lit 700+ bucks on fire, but i dig the design, as Seibon has one similar, this one is actually vented i did make sure....

and since my bumper is starting to sag, i plan to match up with the Seibon Fiberglass/CF one piece bumper and have most of it matched to the Rallye red color (not into CF)

Here is the the hood followed by the bumper planned, and car as is:

Anyone ordered from Ali Express or Alibaba and how was finish, top and underside? Fitment? Experiences? I know i can't be the first

Posting this to recommend an option for lumbar support for those looking for an "OEM" option with minimal changes to their interior. For some background info, I've had my '20LX for 4 years now and have no complaints thus far in terms of ride comfortability. That is until my first 8hr road trip that made me notice the lack of lumbar support from how sore my lower back was. Afterwards I looked thru various subreddits, forums, guides, etc. and the best option I found is the corbeau inflatable lumbar support. The inflatable bladder seems rugged, the installation is simple, and best of all, the seat now feels like it was molded to my back. Credit to this OP that gave me the idea.

I'm sure there are cheaper and better alternatives out there but this one worked for me and I want to spread the words. If you guys have better alternatives please share them to help others who love this car but suffer from the lumbar issue. Attached are pictures from the installation and obligatory picture of my ride 🙂

Took this video before any work got done. Got it scanned and the code said I had a rear-right ABS sensor fault, I replaced that, and got it scanned again and cleared all the codes, and it got rid of the ABS light and ACC and LKAS lights, but I still can’t turn on cruise control even tho it says active. All other lights remain, including tyre pressures even though I just got all new tyres (today, when they cleared the codes for me) and I even started the initialisation sequence in the menu and drove around a bit, any ideas what it could be?

Gonna check the battery when I dig my multimeter out. But if it reads fine I’m not exactly sure what to do next.
