This guy flies by me this morning doing triple digits in a 55 zone. Snapped some pics when we got to the light.

I realize style is highly subjective, but what did that FC2 ever do to deserve this?

Subtle, that guy aint. 😂 Yikes.

Gotta love the dual mud flaps. Plus I think most of his roof spoiler blew off.

I give it a 10/10 for being one of a kind. Unfortunately, not being the good one of a kind.

Unfortunately, most of those mods are pretty common besides the roof spoiler.

I'm seeing soooo much of this lately, now that the 10th Gen is on it's second, third, and fourth owners and prices are coming down.

I would need two hands to count the number of rep Type R wings I've seen this season. Whoever is selling those things is killing it right now.

Funny that I go and replace my wing and these guys are gluing a rep version to the back of their sedan. 🤦

You nailed it as usual, gtman! I noticed the "buttresses" leading to the upper hatch wing were standing alone. I wasn't sure if that was a stylistic choice or some 3M adhesive failure.

I assumed in the world beyond Omaha, you guys probably see this kind of thing all the time (I'm looking at you, Florida). No?

His rate of acceleration was stronger than what I'd expect from a 2.0 sedan, although a tune can only do so much for that setup. If we'd been side by side, I would've rolled down my window and asked if he'd added his car to The Tuned CivicX Experience & Reliability Thread.

How are these #pedestrianshredders even legal :fear:

Reminds me of those "Best mods for under $100" videos on YouTube...
Those people make those videos only for the views and the Amazon kickbacks.
You would be better off going out for a nice dinner instead...

The CTR wing is the least egregious part on there,
looks better than the official Mugen sedan wing from King!!

Apart from that, if he/she loves it, then it's all that matters.
