Nomars slow Type R build

There was delays is shipping. The guy I bought it from paid for 2 day shipping and it arrived 2 weeks later.
 
2800 miles or so on the car
Nice. I had to do a tire replacement yesterday. Damn staple :/
I found this when rotating the tires. Wifey is gone for the weekend for work so I didn’t pull it out. Might mess with it when she is back. Hopefully it isn’t all the way through since it’s holding air, but who knows.
Tires were at 45psi from the factory. Lowered to 40psi.

Figured I might as well start a build thread for the newly acquired Civic Type R.

Prob will take a while before any real mods get added as the car should be enough power as it is for a semi daily car.

My hopes and dreams are of Volk Te37 in mag blue. Gonna need a lot of pennies so will be a long while....
I still love the traditional stock look. What kind of tire dressing do you like, if any?

Just noticed when I joined... 2012, dang... and my first Dragon. What a great group. Having fun like this was never on my Bucket List... but it shoulda been.
 
Got the windows tinted today at 2910 miles. Well, the rear hatch glass needs to be done for the third time next time I bring the car in. Dude was having issues with keeping the lower spoiler in the car. Going to have to take it all off then he can do the work correctly.
After a little researching, a ton of people have issues tinting the rear glass if the lower spoiler is left on.
