My daily DC5R

^ You are correct with those points.

My Gruppe M used to do that too but luckily I saw it before it could leave a mark. Just put some tape on the bonnet where it touches and it'll prevent further scratches/burn marks.

Try to use some foam-like padded tape, if that makes sense. I personally have double sided tape on the bonnet, obviously only one side is sticky. The scratches no longer appear anymore =]

P.S - Get rid of the bubble wrap, it may melt under hood temperature lol

Cool. Yeah good point about bubble wrap..will change to just strong tapes.

Thank you very much !

Or you could buy a felt pad. I use that on my MX5 as the bonnet rubs on the carbon intake too.

That shouldn't happen, my bonnet clears gruppe m with no issues =\

[tyk]

Oh wells, I may change the bonnet later anyway.

A little Type R accessories whoring:


Just missing the Red Honda Key casing..

Grabbed these off Peter as soon as it came up for sale..(thanks man)



Won't have em on til next week as I am probably swapping the tyres.

Still deciding if I should keep RPFs for semis/track or sell them. Not sure when/if I will be tracking this car (I wanted to look for another car to track as I want to keep this daily).

Hahaha sorryyy bro I couldn't resist been wanting them for a while but couldn't justify the price for a brand new set when I still have other mods to do.

Anyone know if these will clear Spoon calipers ?

Looks awesome man! Love the wheels. Good buy!

[eLtrix]

Is it just me or does the hood seem a bit lifted?

[felixR]

Nice work with the wheels.

[tyk]

Thanks Andy and Felix, bronze and CW contrasts really well !

Good observations, unfortunately Gruppe M's scoop dosn't allow the hood to fit perfectly. Guess it wasn't designed in mind to have the scoop at the scuttle panel.
