Hi: Seeking latest/best thinking on what is the best product for subject. I track my car 7-8 days a year. Thanks for your experience & insights. It doesn't have to go on/off between track days, but I strongly prefer not to drill or cut into any of the bumpers etc. Underbody non-visible drilling, welding ect. ok.

I believe those solutions require facia modifications on the '20 & '21. Most of the solutions all use the same 2 bolts on the crash bar. I used the Raceseng ring as I don't like straps. But it to requires very minor modification to the facia. Simple to do.

Note that this shows the install on a '17-'19 FK8. The '20-'21 only has a different garnish/facia piece and you have to Dremel a small arch into it. Tug Shaft Install \ Honda Civic Type R - Si - YouTube

The solution I posted only required me to rotate the horn a bit. No permanent modifications at all.

Now I'm using an aftermarket crashbar that comes with a threaded hole at the same location. Still no modifications to any plastic part.
