Ceramic pro is currently the tippy top of performance and lack of orange peel. Xpel ultimate fusion plus (not to be confused with xpel ultimate plus) is right up there with them. Regardless of what brand you go with, shop the installer not the brand of film. They all mostly come from China...

I would also recommend lubing all rubber bits with shin etsu or similar. My door seals from factory were grey. They were even dry and brittle feeling to the touch. I spent a while last weekend cleaning them up with dawn dish soap and water, then drying off really well, and lubing with shin...

I have noticed my wastegate noise gets worse when the heat is on and seems to resonate via the ducts into the passenger side dash vent the most. This one doesn't bother me because I can hear it change volume and rate with rpm and throttle, so I can easily tell what it is. Once the duty cycle...

Sort of. It's a little hard to tell in the video since I can't turn my head to pinpoint and listen closely. Mine was tremendously louder than that and would start at about the same kind of volume/tone, but then would increase in pitch as the frequency went up. It's possible it's the clip for...

I never got a video, unfortunately. Took it to the dealer 3 times and they kept saying they think it's the screen so they tore that up multiple times to no avail. They refused to acknowledge it for a 4th visit because technically they'd then be admitting to lemon law qualification in my state...

This was the one that got me into tearing apart my door and checking everything; every wire, clip, and bolt. I found one green clip broken, but I don't think that was the problem specifically. Certainly didn't help. I did quite a bit of soundproofing with butyl, felt tape, and aggfoam during...

At the risk of sounding pedantic, let's talk real msrp... It's a 53k car and typically 56k on a dealer lot. That's about 20k more than a base Integra and it's definitely not 15k or 20k in mechanical upgrade because they're not giving you a spare engine, trans, and brakes to take home with you...

Thing is, a lot of people paid 56-60k for this car with some options. That's 10-14k more than average sure, but also 20-30% more than average in a "luxury" car brand. Average also being a larger vehicle and often a very different thing. Comparative to other cars that this should be competitive...

Armorall is last century. It's all about the interior ceramics now... Or at least a good plastic wipe/lube like Adam's ??

Yes

Yeah I need to make it out there at some point. NASA Nats are in my neck of the woods this year so a lot of people will be here later in the year. You should come out! It's a drive out, but it's one of the best tracks in the country. "little nurburgring" is an appropriate name. In two weeks...

Anything over 2 hrs away i trailer, even if it's just a street car for some fun runs or HPDE. You guys highlighted some of the reasons why... Distance and time for a back and forth, bringing more tools/tires/consumables, chance of an accident stranding me, and having portable shelter. I have a...

Yeah Ozark international is even worse. I hate that track for fresh drivers because they spend the entire weekend just learning which way to go over the next blind turn/hill instead of focusing on driving technique. It makes for fun driving, but confidence building becomes a big part of the...

Good work! I can tell the confidence is much improved!

Periodically for both android auto and carplay, it will just stop connecting. A reset of the head unit resolves it, but no combination of unpairing and repairing solves it.

Take door card off. From back side look for the silver screws with built in flat washer, undo them. When the els surround pops off squeeze the grill through the slots gently, ensuring not to bend them. Once they're off, felt tape the grill tabs and insert back in. Once back in, slightly bend...

Oh! Now I understand. I don't think it was your tint person. Mine are super loose and always have been. You can press on them lightly on mine and they easily flex a half inch. I've seen them with gaps on some cars. I can't find it now but someone opened a case with Honda and they called it...

I've had several rattles from the doors. The speaker grill is currently rattling for me and it's horrendously annoying, but only happens when volume is above 8 or I'm driving on a moderate highway surface. The solution there is to pop off the metal part of the grill and put felt tape in the...

It is. If you're triggering brake vectoring enough to impact wear on the street there's an arrest coming your way for reckless driving. Vectoring is not new tech. Many vehicles have been using it for decades. The only difference here is most other vehicles use vented rotors, but this...
